Do not place plastic items such as salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings
on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wood spoons could
catch fire if placed too close to a flame.
In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit
match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to LITE. After burner lights turn the knob to desired
setting. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.
