Using Your Range
- Do not leave children alone or unattended where a
range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously
burned.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the
door, storage, broiler, or WARM-N-READY drawer,
(depending on model) or cooktop. They could
damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury.
• Let the burner grates and otl_er surfaces cool
before touching them or leaving them where
children can reach them.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN
SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE A
RANGE OR ON THE BACKSPLASH OF A RANGE--
CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE RANGE TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance+ Be careful when reaching
for items stored in cabinets over the cooktop.
Flammable material could be ignited if brought in
contact with flames or hot oven surfaces and may
cause severe burns
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off+ Smother a flaming
pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray+ Use a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher..
Framing grease outside a pan can be put out by
covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using
a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher..
Flame in the oven, storage drawer, broiler drawer,
or WARM+N+READY drawer can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door or drawer and
turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher
Do not store flammable materials in an oven, range
storage drawer or broiler drawer, WARM-N-READY
drawer, or near the cooktop.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly--meat to at
least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°R
Cooking to these temperatures usually protects
against foodborne illness
For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
Surface Cooking
• Always use the LITE position (on models with
electric ignition) or the HI position (on models with
standing pilots) when igniting the top burners and
make sure the burners have ignited.
• Never leave the surface burners unattended at high
flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.
• Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive
flame is hazardous
• Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot holders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam
• Do not let pot holders come near open flames
when lifting cookware+ Do not use a towel or other
bulky ctoth in place of a pot hoIder_
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware
handles toward the side or back of the range without
letting them extend over adjacent burners+
o Always turn the surface burners to OFF before
removing cookware.
o Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame
setting.
° Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.
They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary
for the range to operate properly with correct
combustion. Air openings are located in the following
places:
--Oven vent at the rear of the cooktop.
--Air intake under the broiler drawer°
--Air vent at the top of the oven door.
