Never modify or alter the construction
of a range
by removing the leveling legs, panels, wire covers,
anti-tip
brackets/screws,
or any other part of the
range.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it
is to be stored or discarded.
• 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 may reduce the risk of personal
injury and damage to the range.
• 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.
• 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,
including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer,
warmer drawer or lower double oven.
• Stepping, leaning
or sitting on the door or
drawers of a range can result in serious injuries
and also cause damage to the appliance.
DO NOT
allow children to climb or play around the range. The
weight of a child on an open oven door may cause the
range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
• Storage in or on appliance--flammable
materials
should not be stored in an oven, warmer
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.
• Never use your appliance for warming
or
heating the room. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning.
Do not store items of interest
to children in the
cabinets above a range or on the backguard
of
the range.
Children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
Do not touch surface heating units or surface
cooking elements,
areas near these units or
elements,
or interior surface of the oven. Both
surface heating and oven heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface
cooking units 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 oven door 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 heat unopened food containers
- buildup
of pressure may cause container
to burst and
result in injury.
• 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 dry potholders
- moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns 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 attempt
to operate the range during a
power failure.
If the power fails, always turn off the
range. If the range is not turned off and the power
resumes, the range will begin to operate again. Once the
power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.
