• 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.
Heating Elements
• NEVER touch oven heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven.
• Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near elements 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 heating elements, areas near elements, or
interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
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.
Self-Clean Oven
•
Clean only parts listed in this guide. DO NOT clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage, or move the gasket. DO NOT use oven cleaners of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils and wipe up excessive spillovers to prevent excessive
smoke,
flare-ups or flaming.
• This range features a cooling fan which operates automatically during a clean cycle. If the fan does not turn on, cancel the clean
operation and contact an authorized servicer.
• It is normal for the rangetop cooking surface of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the rangetop
cooking surface during a clean cycle should be avoided.
