SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this range must conform with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1--1atest
edition when installed in the United
States.
When installed in a manufactured (mobile) home, installation
must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and
Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 [formerly
the
Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,
Title 24, HUD (Part 280)] or, when such standard is not
applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations,
ANSI/NCSBCS
A225.1, or with local codes.
This range has been design certified by CSA International. As
with any appliance using gas and generating heat, there are
certain safety precautions
you should follow. You will find
them in the Use & Care Guide, read it carefully.
Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly
by a qualified installer or service technician.
This
range
must
be electrically
grounded
in
accordance
with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No .70--
latest edition when installed
in the United States.
See Grounding Instructions on page 5.
Before installing the range in an area covered with
linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make
sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least
90°F above room temperature
without shrinking,
warping or discoloring.
Do not install the range over
carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of
1/4-inch thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand the heat generated by the range.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
air at the
oven vent nor around the base or beneath the lower
front
panel of the range. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces as they may become hot
while the oven is in operation. This range requires fresh air
for proper burner combustion.
Never leave children alone or unattended
in the area where an appliance is in use. As children grow,
teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances. Never leave
the oven door open when the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors
or drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and
can also cause damage to the range.
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the range. Children could be seriously
burned climbing on the range to reach items.
To eliminate
the need to reach over the surface
burners, cabinet storage space above the burners
should be avoided.
Adjust surface
burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking
utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates
a potentially hazardous situation.
Never use your range for warming or heating the
room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance.
Explosions or fires could result.
Reset all controls to the "off" position after using a
programmable
timing operation.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN

self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage. Follow
the cleaning instructions in the Use & Care Guide.
