User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any
part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manuals. All other
servicing should be done only by a qualified
technician. This reduces the risk of personal
injury and damage to the oven.
•
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified
technician and an authorized repair service.
Know how to disconnect the power to the
appliance at the circuit breaker or fuse box in
case of an emergency.
•
Never modify or alter the construction of an
oven by removing the leveling legs, panels,
wire covers, anti-tip brackets/screws, or any
other part of the oven.
•
Remove the oven door from any unused oven
if it is to be stored or discarded.
•
Be sure to have an appropriate foam-type fire
extinguisher available, visible, and easily
accessible located near the appliance.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
•
Know which knob or key controls each surface
heating area. Place cookware with food on the
cooking area before turning it on. Turn the
cooking area off before removing the
cookware.
•
Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
different sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit heating
element. The use of undersized cookware
may expose a portion of the heating element
to direct contact and may result in the ignition
of clothing or other items. Using the proper
cookware on the cooking zone will improve
efficiency.
•
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spills due to uninten-
tional contact with the utensil, the utensil
handles should be turned inward and not
extend over other cooking areas.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Never leave surface elements unattended.
Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy
spills may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry
could be damaged and may damage the
cooktop.
•
Improper cookware may break due to sudden
changes in temperature. Check the cookware
manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop
use.
•
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn on the fan.
•
Glazed cooking utensils—Only certain types
of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop
use.
•
Do not use decorative surface burner covers.
If an element is accidentally turned on, the
decorative cover will become hot and possibly
melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop.
•
Do not use searing grill on the cooktop. The
searing grill is not designed for use on the
cooktop. Doing so may result in a fire.
