WARNING
Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or
Heating the Room.
Do not use the oven or Warmer Oven/Lower
Oven (if equipped) for storage.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or
drawers of this range can result in serious
injuries and also cause damage to the range. Do
not allow children to climb or play around the
range. The weight of a child on an open door may
cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns
or other injury.
CAUTION
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a
range. Children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
* Do not leave children alone--Children should not
be left alone or unattended in the area where
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
* Remove the oven door from any unused range if it
is to be stored or discarded.
Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, lower oven
drawer, near surface units or in the storage
drawer. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items,
such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well
as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such
as aerosol cans, on or near the range.
Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
the oven bottom, except as suggested in the manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in a
risk of electrical shock, or fire.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE COOKING ZONES,
AREAS NEAR THESE ZONES, OVEN HEATING
ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE
OVEN. ALL surface cooking zones and oven heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in
color. Areas near surface cooking zones may become
hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials touch these areas until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven
door and window.
Wear proper apparel-- Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires--
Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda,
a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
Use only dry potholders - Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in bums
from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth
instead of a potholder.
Do not heat unopened food containers- Buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result
in injury.
_=1 IMPORTANT
The appliance will not operate during a power
failure, Once the power resumes, you must reset the
time of day before using the oven.
Important instructions for using your cooktop
Know which control operates each surface
cooking zone. Place a pan of food on the unit before
turning it on, and turn the zone off before removing
the pan.
Use proper pan size--This appliance is equipped
with one or more surface cooking zones of different
sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the cooking zone. Proper
relationship of utensil to heating zone will also
im prove efficiency.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent cooking zones--To reduce
the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil,
the handle of the utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent cooking zones.
Never leave surface cooking zones unattended at
high heat settings-- Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has
boiled dry may melt.
