IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
USING
YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
_Use
Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils win expose a portion of the burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition
of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should BeTurned Inwardand
Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reducethe 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 surface burners
* Never
Leave Surface
Burners
Unattended
at High
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective
Liners--Do
not use aluminum
foil
to line
surface burner pans, the oven bottom
or any other part of
the range. Only use aluminum foil as recommended for baking
if used as a cover placed on the food. Any other use of
protective
liners or aluminum foil may interfere with
heat
and air distribution,
and combustion.
Damage to the range
or personal injury may result.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only
certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for rangetop
service without
breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
Check the manufacturer's
recommendations
for rangetop use
• Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a burner
is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will become hot
and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner
is on Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage
may also be done to the cooktop or burners because the covers
may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.
IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening
Door--Stand
to the side of the
range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam
escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.
The oven is vented
below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when
the oven is operating may causesevere burns. Also, do not place
plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These
items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired
location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is
hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack
with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the
oven burner flame or interior of the oven. Remove all utensils
from the rack before removing rack
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert.The broiler pan
and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the
high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb (some models) with a damp
cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
range or turn off the power to the range before removing and
replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR CLEANING
YOUR
RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease
that could catch fire. Pay particular attention
to the area
underneath each surface burner. Exhaust fan ventilation hoods
and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to
accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to
the hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
• Kitchen cleaners/aerosols--Always follow the manufacturer's
recommended directions for use Be aware that excess residue
from cleanersand aerosols may ignite causingdamage and/or
injury.
