Warnings
5
• NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven racks or oven bottom. This could result in risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the
appliance. Use foil only as directed in this guide.
• DO NOT cook directly on the oven bottom. This could result in damage to the appliance. Always place pans on oven racks.
• PREPARED FOOD WARNING:
Follow food manufacturer's instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its cover distorts,
warps, or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The food could be contaminated
.
• If you are “flaming” liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to
spread out of control.
• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not
obstructed. The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a mechanical ventilation
device. Prolonged or intensive use of the appliance may call for additional (such as opening a window) or more effective
ventilation (such as increasing the level of a mechanical ventilation if present).
Utensil Safety
• Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or
loose-handled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip.
Pans that are heavy to move when filled with food may also be hazardous.
• Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying.
Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
• To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, DO NOT extend
handles over adjacent surface burners. ALWAYS turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the
room where they are easily hit or reached by small children.
• NEVER let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.
• Follow the manufacturer's directions when using oven cooking bags.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop surface or oven usage without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer's instructions when using glass.
• This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. DO NOT use any devices or accessories that
are not specifically recommended in this guide. DO NOT use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven
convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious
safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
• The flame of the burner should be adjusted to just cover the bottom of the pan or pot. Excessive burner setting may
cause scorching of adjacent counter-top surfaces, as well as the outside of the utensil. This is based on safety
considerations.
Burners
• NEVER touch oven bake and broil burner areas or interior surfaces of oven.
• Bake and broil burners may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near burners and interior surfaces of an oven may
become hot enough to cause burns.
•
During and after use, DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot burners, or interior surfaces of oven
until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such as the
oven vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, and the oven door window.
Cleaning Safety
• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. DO NOT touch the burner grates or
surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Clean appliance with caution. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
•
DO NOT
clean door gasket. It is essential for a good tight seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the
gasket.
• No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating such as aluminum foil should be used in or around any part
of the oven. Improper oven liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. Keep oven free from grease buildup.
