appliance.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS, AREAS NEAR
THESE BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR INTERIOR
SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface and oven burners
may be hot even though flames are not visible. Areas near
surface burners 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 cooktop,
surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and
surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

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 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 Heat Unopened Food Contsiners--Buildup
of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USING
YOUR
COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will 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.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner.
Place a
pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the
burner off before removing the pan.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top
burners.
Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the
flame so it does not extend beyond the edge o the utensil.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materiats, 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 Heat
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, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk
of electric shock, or fire,
• 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,
IMPORTANT--Do
not attempt to operate the oven during a
power failure. If the power fails, always turn off the oven. If the
oven is not turned off and the power resumes, the oven will
begin to operate again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock
and oven function.
