Important safety information

Have your appliance properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. The installation must conform with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, in accordance with
the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian
Electric Code, CSA C22.1.
Install only as described in the installation section of this book.
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and an
authorized repair service. Know how to disconnect the power
to the range at the circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an
emergency.
The anti-tip device supplied with this range must be installed
when the appliance is installed. This will reduce risk of tipping
of the appliance from abnormal usage or by excessive
loading of the oven door or storage drawer.
Leaning, sitting or stepping on the doors or drawer of this
range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to
the range. DO NOT allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on
any part of the range.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician.
Important safety notice and warning
IMPORTANT INFORMATION - If you are wearing a
n
medical device (such as a pacemaker), consult your
doctor. The operation of the appliance may affect a
medical device.
Prior to connecting, the power cord should be
n
inspected for any damage. In the event of damage
please consult your electrical installer.
You must provide adequate clearances between the
n
range and adjacent combustible surfaces. Refer to
Installation Instructions.
Save the installation instructions for the local
n
electrical inspector's use.
In case of fire
DO NOT use water on grease fires. NEVER pick up
n
a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a
flaming pan on a cooktop burner by covering the
pan completely with a well fitting lid or baking
tray. Isolate the power source, where it is safe to
do so, either at the control or isolator. If available
use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
If fire is in an oven pan, smother by closing oven door. Open
doors and windows or if a hood is installed turn it on to
remove smoke and odor.
To prevent fire or smoke damage
Before using the range make sure all the packing materials
have been removed.
Always keep the area around the range free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
NEVER leave any items on the range cooktop. The
n
hot air from an oven vent may ignite flammable
items and may increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst. Many
aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when
exposed to heat and may be highly flammable.
Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep
plastic items away from parts of the range that may become
warm or hot. DO NOT leave plastic items on the cooktop as
they may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a
lighted burner.
Storage should not be installed directly above a range. If
anything is stored above the range, it should be limited to
infrequently used items, which can be safely stored in an area
subjected to heat from a range. Temperatures may be unsafe
for some items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol
sprays.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the
range. NEVER allow children to play with packaging material.
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to
n
heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
overheating of the oven.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
n
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminium foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminium foil linings may also trap heat, causing a
fire hazard.
It is recommended that this appliance is serviced
n
annually by a qualified service engineer.
DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance
n
unless specifically recommended in this User
Manual. Always consult a qualified service engineer.
All other servicing should be done only by a qualified
technician, this may reduce the risk of personal injury and
damage to the range.
NEVER modify or alter the construction of a range by
removing levelling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/
screws, or any other part of the product.
DO NOT leave children alone.
n
Babies, toddlers and young children should not be allowed
near the range at any time. They should NEVER be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
