Placement of oven racks: Always place an oven rack in the desired location while the oven is
cool. If a rack must be moved when the oven is hot, use potholders and grasp the rack with
both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact hot oven walls. Remove all cookware
from the rack before moving.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to
burst and result in injury.
Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed. The oven vent is located along the bottom of the
back guard. Touching the surfaces in the vent area when the oven is being operated may
cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven
vents. These items could melt or ignite. The range requires fresh air for proper element
combustion. Do not block the flow of air around the base or beneath the lower front panel of
the range.
Use care when opening oven door: Stand to the side of the oven when opening the oven
door. Slowly open the door to allow hot air or steam to escape before removing or replacing
food.
Know which knob controls each element. Place a pan of food on the element before turning
it on, and turn the element o before removing the pan. Always turn to the full position when
igniting top elements.
Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface
elements. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the cookware, the handle of a cookware should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface elements.
Never leave the surface elements unattended. Boil overs may cause smoking, greasy spill-
overs may catch fire or a pan which has boiled dry may melt.
Do not place hands between the spring tension hinge and the oven door frame when you
are removing the oven door. You could pinch your fingers.
Allow parts to cool to room temperature before touching or removing them from the
range. When a surface element is first turned o, the element is hot enough to cause burns.
When removing appliance for cleaning and/or service:
• Disconnect AC power supply.
• Carefully remove the range by pulling outward.
CAUTION: Range is heavy. Use care in handling.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire hazard
or explosion. And do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of
the unit is disconnected.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of fat or grease, which could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilating hoods and grease filters should be clean. Do not allow fat or grease
to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to the hood manufacturer’s
instructions for cleaning.
Glazed cookware: Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other
glazed cookware are suitable for rangetop service without breaking, due to the sudden
