• 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" (10,16 cm) 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.

flammable vapors and liquids near this or any
other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
