Important Safety Instructions
• To avoid the possibility of fire, do not leave the range
unattended when using the cooktop.
• Clean and maintain the range regularly as instructed in this
manual. Keep the entire range, ventilation filters and range
hoods free of grease that could catch fire.
• Use Proper Pan Size – This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to
burner will also improve efficiency.
• Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations before use to determine
if a utensil is suitable for use in an oven or on a cooktop.
Certain types of glass, ceramic and earthenware are not
suitable for use with a range. Personal injury or damage may
result from the improper use of cookware.
• Select cookware carefully. Use utensils of the proper size,
material and construction for the particular type of cooking
being done. Utensils need to be large enough to contain
the desired quantity of food without boil-overs or spill-overs.
Choose pans with easy to hold handles that will stay cool
while cooking. Do not use utensils with loose handles. Avoid
using pans that are too heavy to lift safely.
• When deep fat frying:
- Be certain that the pan is large enough to contain the
desired volume of food without overflow caused by the
bubbling of the fat. Never leave a deep fat fryer unattended.
- Avoid frying moist or frost-covered foods. Foods with high
water content may cause spattering or spilling of the hot fat.
- Heat fat slowly, and stir together any combination of oils
and fats prior to applying heat. Utilize a deep fat frying
thermometer to avoid heating the fat to temperatures above
the flash point.
• Do not touch the outside surfaces of the range during the
Self Clean cycle. They will be hot.
• Exercise caution when opening the oven doors. Let hot air or
steam escape before looking or reaching inside.
• Use extreme caution if adding water to food. Steam can
cause serious burns or scalds.
• Use only dry pot holders when removing food and cookware
from the ovens. Wet pot holders can cause steam burns.
• Make sure that all the cooktop parts are dry before lighting a
burner.
• Turn the knobs to the OFF position prior to removing them
from the valve stems.
• The cooktop should never be operated without the knobs
and trim rings in place.
WARNING
CAUTION
• Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to
remain on the oven’s surfaces. The porcelain finish may
stain or pit.
• Never use the cooktop surface as a cutting board.
• Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object such
as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the
range’s surfaces.
• To prevent damage, remove the meat probe from the oven
when it is not being used.
• Do not line the ovens with aluminum foil or other materials.
These items can melt or burn up during self cleaning and
cause permanent damage to the ovens.
• Always ensure that the light fixture lens covers are in place
when using the ovens. The lens covers protect the light
bulbs from breakage caused by high oven temperatures or
mechanical shock.
• Non-stick coatings, when heated, can be harmful to birds.
Remove birds to a separate, well-ventilated room during
cooking.
• For your safety, do not use the ovens to cook without the
convection filters installed. When the filter is not installed, the
spinning fan blades at the back of the oven are exposed.
• Do not allow food to sit in the oven for more than one hour
before or after cooking. Eating spoiled food can result in
food poisoning.
• Do not leave objects, such as aluminum foil, the meat probe
or cookie sheets on the bottom of the ovens. Do not allow
the broil elements on the ceiling of the oven chambers to be
covered up. Do not line the ovens with aluminum foil or other
materials. Doing so may cause the oven or the items in it to
overheat, creating a fire hazard or causing property damage.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
a. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet
or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO
PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
c. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish cloths or towels -
a violent steam explosion may result.
d. Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:
