IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and Save These Instructions
DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or
range. Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire
hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat
will be trapped beneath it. This will upset the cooking
performance and can damage the finish of the oven or the
range.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS, IN
THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
• Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet,
or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the
electric element. Be careful to prevent burns. If the
flames do not go out immediately, Evacuate and call
the fire department.
• Never pick up a flaming pan — You may be burned.
• DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish cloths or
towels — a violent steam explosion will result.
• Use an extinguisher only if:
• You know you have a class ABC extinguisher
and you already know how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where
it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
WARNING:
The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety
considerations, never use the oven or cooktop to warm
or heat a room. Also, such use can damage the cooktop
or oven parts.
WARNING:
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the oven.

WARNING:
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire
hazard. This will upset the cooking performance and can
damage the finish of the oven or the range.
When using the cooktop: DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER
GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA.
Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to
cause burns.
Never leave the range unattended when using high flame
settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite. More importantly, if the burner flames are
smothered, unburned gas will escape into the room. See
front of this manual, page 1 regarding gas leaks.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for cooking on the range burners. This type of utensil may
break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low
or medium heat settings according to the utensil
manufacturer's directions.
DO NOT heat unopened food containers; a buildup of
pressure may cause the container to burst.
During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame
heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan. Proper relationship of
cookware to burner flame reduces safety risks.
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the
grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such as
a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can result in
poor combustion that generates harmful by-products.
Use caution to insure that drafts like those from forced air
vents or fans DO NOT blow flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the
edges of the pot.
Always use utensils that have flat bottoms large enough to
cover the burner. The use of undersized utensils could
expose a portion of the flame and may result in ignition of
clothing.
