IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yeflow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having fiat bottoms
large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spi//overs, make sure cookware is large enough to contain
the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since
heavy spattering or spi/Iovers left on range can ignite. Use pans wi£h handles that can be easily grasped
and remain cool,
Always use the LITE position when igniting
file top burners and make sure the burners
hme ignited.
Nexer leave fl_e sur]Bace burners unattended
at higt_ flame setdng:s. Boiloxers cause
smoking and greasy spilloxers that may
catch on fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it
does not exmnd beyond the edge of the
cookwaie. Excessixe flame is hazardous.
Use only d U pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot snrfaces may resnlt in
bums from steam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when lifting
cookware. Do not use a towel oi" other
bulky c]ofll in place of a pot holder.
XA]mn using gtass cookware, make sure it
is designed for top-of-range cooking.
To minimize the possibility of bums,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage,
turn cookware handles toward the side or
back of fl_e range without extending oxer
adjacent burners.
Careflllly watch tbods being flied at a high
flame setting.
Always heat flit slowly, and watch as it heats.
Do not leme any imms on the cooktop. The
hot air from the xent m W ignim flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause diem to burst.
If a combinaoon of oils or fiats will be used in
flTing, stir together befoie heating or as fats
meh slowly
Use a deep fat thermometer whene\er
possible to prexent ovedleadng fiat beyond
the smoking point.
Use fl_e least possible amount of ]Batfor
effective shallow or deep-fat flTing. Filling
the pan too dill of ]Batcan cause spillovers
when food is added.
'_A'hei1 flaming foods are under d_e hood,
Um_ the ]Ban off. The ]Ban, if operating, may
spread the flames.
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is
placed oxer the bm_er gTate to support
the wok. This Iing acts as a heat trap,
which may damage file burner grate and
burner head. Also, it may cause fl_e burner
to work improperly. This may cause a
carhon monoxide lexel aboxe that
allowed by CUlTent standards, resulting
in a health hazard.
Foods for fiTing should be as d U as possible.
Frost on fiozen foods or moisture on flesh
foods can cause hot ]Batto bubble up and
oxer the sides of the pan.
Ne_er try to mo_e a pan of hot ]Bat,especially
a deep fat flTer _A'ait until the fat is cool.
Do not leme plastic imms on the cooktop--

Kee I) all plastics aw W flom the sur]Bace
burners.
To ax_id the possibility of a hurn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are
at the OFF position and all grates are cool
before attenlpting to remo\e diem.
If range is located near a windo_, do not
hang long curtains that could blow oxer file
surface burners and cream a die hazard.
If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Ne_er
use an open flame to locam a leak.
Alwws turn the sur]Bace burner conuols off
before removing cookware.
Do not lift the cooktop. I,ifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation
of the range.

OVEN
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause bums to hands, face and eyes.
Do not use tim oven fox a storage area.
Imms stored in the ox.en can ignim.
Kee I) the oven free flom glease buildup.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performanc!!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal st;mdards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% ti_t by weight. I,ow ti_t spreads, (m the
other hand, contain less tht and more water: The high moisture c(mtent (ff these spreads aftects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with umr old thvofite recipes, use mmgafine, butter or stick spreads c(mtaining at least
70% vegetable oil.

ANTbT P DEVICE
@
®
AR ranges can tip and inj_y could result.
To prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach an approved AntioTip device to the
wall. (See &stalling the Anti-77p Device h_ tiffs
section.) To check if tile device is b)sta_ed
and engaged properly, carefully tip the rm]ge
forward. The AntioTip device should engage
and prevent tlle rmlge from tippblg over.
If you pull the range om from the wall for
any reason, make sure the ka_ti-Tip device
is engaged when you push the range back
against the wall.

LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong
drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind the range
should be sealed. Make sure the openings arom_d the
base of the rmage that supply fresh air for combustion
mid ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or
woodwork.
Your range, like umnv other household itelns, is hea\ T
alul can settle into soft floor coverii]gs such as cushioned
vinyl or cml)eting. Lrse care when u]oving tile range
on this type of flooring. It is recolmneluled that tile
following silnple alul inexpensive instructioi]s be
fi)llowed to protect your flooI:
The range should be installed on a sheet _ff plywood
(or siufilar matelial). _4]/en the floor coveting elulS at
the front of the range, the area that the range will rest
on should be built up with plywood to tile sanle level or
higher than tile floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved fi)r cleaning
or selvicing. _Mso, inake sure your floor covering will
withstalul 180°F, (See tile Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
Make sure tile wall coverings around your range can
withstalul tile heat generated (up to 200°F) 11_tile range
(See tile Installation Safety Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners
are properly seated and level.
Lift up the cooktop (on models with staa_dm'd twh_
burners) mad remove any packing material under it.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven aa_d/or th'awer.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose
during shipph_g.
