Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
• If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your
dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Make sure that the range has been properly installed
and grounded by a qualified installer according to the
accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer
show you the location of the circuit breaker panel or fuse
box so that you know where and how to turn off power to the
range.
• Do not install, repair or replace any part of the range unless
specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A
qualified service technician should perform all other service.
• If the range is near a window, do not use long curtains as
window treatment. The curtains could blow over the cooktop
and create a fire hazard.
• Before performing any type of service, make sure that power
to the range is turned off at the circuit breaker panel or fuse
box.
• Some versions of this appliance are equipped with a
four-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding
prong from this plug.
• WARNING - NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in
the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the range
and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil
linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
• Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of a home
appliance as outlined in this manual. This range is not
intended for commercial use.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE RANGE
DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat
Settings – Boil-over causes smoking and greasy spill-overs
that may ignite.
• Make sure individuals who use the range are able to operate
it properly.
• Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand or climb
on any part of the appliance, including the doors. Doing so
may cause tipping, damage, serious injury or death.
• Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area
around the appliance. Do not allow children to play with
the controls, pull on the handles or touch other parts of the
appliance.
• Do not store items of interest to children above the range.
Children could be burned or injured while climbing on the
appliance.
• Do not attempt to use this appliance in the event of a power
failure.
• Clean the appliance thoroughly before operating it for the
first time.
Tip-over hazard:
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Verify that the anti-tip bracket has been properly attached
to the floor or wall as directed in the installation instructions.
Using a flashlight, verify that the range's anti-tip foot is
engaged with the anti-tip bracket as shown below.
• After moving the range, be sure to re-engage the rear leg
with the floor or wall mounted anti-tip bracket as shown
below.
• Do not operate the range without the anti-tip foot engaged
with the anti-tip bracket.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or
serious burns to children and adults.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not cover the burners and grates with anything except
properly selected utensils. Decorative covers may cause a
fire hazard or damage to the range if a burner is accidentally
turned on with the cover in place.
• Do not heat unopened food containers such as baby food
jars and cans. Pressure build up may cause the container to
burst and cause injury.
• Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard, plastic
and cloth away from the burners and other hot surfaces. Do
not place such items in the oven. Do not allow pot holders to
touch hot surfaces or gas burners.
• Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using the range.
Do not allow clothing to come into contact with the interior of
the oven or the cooktop and surrounding areas during and
immediately after use.
• Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.
• Do not hang flammable or heat sensitive objects over the
range.
• To reduce the possibility of fire, do not use the ovens for
storage.
