WARNING m RANGE TIPPING
HAZARD:
• All ranges can tip and injury can result. To
prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach it to the floor, wall or cabinet by
installing the Anti-Tip Device supplied.
• A risk of tip-over may exist if the appliance
is not installed in accordance with these
instructions.
• If the range is pulled away from the wall for
cleaning, service or any other reason,
ensure that the Anti-Tip Device is properly
reengaged when the range is pushed back
against the wall. In the event of abnormal
usage (such as a person standing, sitting,
or leaning on an open door), failure to take
this precaution can result in tipping of the
range. Personal injury might result from
spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.
Safety Precautions
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.
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
Inside Front Cover 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.
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.
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets,
etc., should never be used on the cooktop.
Do not use flammable cleaners to clean the range.
To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of
utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work
areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the range's cooktop.
Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of the
utensil when stirring or turning food.
DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory.
Do not use the grill plate accessory for cooking excessively
fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.
The optional cutting board accessory must be removed
before operating the griddle beneath it or burners adjacent
to it.
GREASE 18 FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean these when
there is a boil over or when the burner does not light even
though the electronic igniters activate. See "Cleaning
Recommendations" on page 27.
WARNING:
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and
clean around the burner and burner ports. After
cleaning, check for proper operation.
Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not
use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot.
