IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION SAFETY

Have the installer show you the location of the range
gas shut-off valve and how to shut it off if necessary.
• Make sure your range is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer, according to the
installation instructions. Any adjustment and service
should be performed only by qualified gas range
installers or service technicians.
• Make sure your range is properly adjusted by a
qualified service technician or installer for the type of
gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. Your range can
be converted for use with either type of gas. See the
installation instructions.
• These adjustments must be done by a qualified service
technician according to the manufacturer's instructions
and all codes and requirements of the authority
having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious injury or property damage.
The qualified agency performing these adjustments
assumes responsibility for the conversion.
• Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the
appliance.
• Never use the appliance door as a step stool or seat,
as this may result in possible tipping of the appliance
and serious injuries.
• This product should not be installed below ventilation
type hood systems that direct air in a downward
direction. Doing so may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the gas burners resulting in personal injury
and may affect the cooking performance of the unit.
• Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only.
Do not remove the round grounding prong from the
plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home
electrical system, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have an ungrounded outlet replaced with
a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance
with the National Electrical Code. Do not use an
extension cord with this range.
• Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy.
Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the same
cooking temperature together in one oven.
• For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the
guides on page 31 for proper rack and pan placements.
• Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food
being cooked to save energy when heating. Heating ½
quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot
than in a 1-quart pot.
• Use cookware with flat bottoms to provide the best
contact with the cooktop surface when cooking on the
glass-ceramic cooktop.
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
• To prevent fire hazard or electrical shock, do not
use an adapter plug, an extension cord, or remove
the grounding prong from the electrical power cord.
Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury,
fire or death.
• To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of
the kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations.
• DO NOT attempt to repair or replace any part of your
range unless it is specifically mentioned in this manual.
All other services should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Make sure that all packaging materials are removed
from the range before operating it to prevent fire or
smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
• After using your range for an extended period of
time high floor temperatures may result. Many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
• NEVER install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum
that cannot withstand such type of use. Never install it
directly over interior kitchen carpeting.
• If you want to shut off the gas supply to the range,
close the main gas shutoff valve by turning it
clockwise.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
• Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the
size of the cookware in use. Using a large element for
a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed
surface of the element is a burn or fire hazard.
• Reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the
EasyClean
• Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary
during use. This helps the oven maintain temperature,
prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy
use.
