USE ONLY DRY POTHOLDERS. Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
the steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth
in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch
hot elements, hot burners, or burner grates.
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, wear proper apparel.
Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should
never be worn while using this appliance. Some
synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should
not be worn while cooking.
DO NOT use aluminum foil as a shield against
food spills or drippings around the burners or
control panel area. This could obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilated air. This can damage
the finish of the range.
WARNING!
This appliance
is for cooking!
Based
on safety considerations, never use
the range to
warm or heat a room. Such use can
damage the range.
DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER GRATES OR THE
IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREAS adjacent to
the burners. When in use these areas may become
hot enough to cause burns.
NEVER leave the range unattended when using
high flame settings. Boil
-
overs cause smoking
and greasy spills that may ignite. More importantly,
if the burner flames are smothered, unburned
gas will escape into the room.
ONLY certain types of glass, heat proof glass
-
ceramic, ceramic earthenware or other glazed
utensils are suitable for range use. Other types of
utensils may break with sudden
DO NOT HEAT UNOPENED FOOD CONTAINERS.
A buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst
and cause injury
DURING COOKING, set the burner control so that
the flame heats only the bottom of the pan and
does not extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
USE CAUTION to ensure that drafts like those
from forced air vents or fans do not blow flammable
materials toward the flames or push the flames so
that they extend beyond the edges of the pot.
TO MINIMIZE ACIDENT,
position handles
of
utensil inward so that they do not extend over
adjacent work areas, cooking areas or the edge
of the range.
HOLD THE HANDLE of the pan to prevent
movement of the utensil when stirring food.
DO NOT USE the BBQ grill top section
for
grilling excessively fatty meats or products
that
promote flare
-
ups.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool
before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease
deposits to collect. Clean after each use.
KEEP BURNER PORTS CLEAN. This is essen-
tial
for proper lighting and maintenance of the
burners.
It is necessary to clean the burner
ports when
there is a boil over or when the
burner does
not light though the electronic igniters
click.
CLEAN THE RANGE
-
TOP SECTION WITH CAUTION.
Avoid steam bums; do not use a wet sponge or cloth
to
clean the range while it is hot. Some cleaners produce
noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow
directions• provided by the cleaner manufacturer.
BE SURE ALL RANGE CONTROLS ARE TURNED
OFF
and the range is cool before using any type of
aerosol
cleaner on or around the range. The chemi-
cal that
produces the spraying action could, in the
presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to
corrode. Only
an authorized service technician
should perform Service. Technicians must dis-
connect the power
supply before servicing this unit.
CLEAN THE VENTILATION HOOD and filters
above the range frequently so grease deposits
from cooking vapors do not accumulate on them.
IN CASE OF FIRE
or when intentionally using
"flaming" liquor or other spirits on the range, follow
hood manufacturer's instructions.
INSTALL ASMOKEDETECTOR inornear thekitchen
.
TURN THE KNOB CONTROL TO OFF if a burner
goes out and gas escapes. Open a window or door.
DO NOT attempt to use the
range until the gas has
had time to dissipate.
When using the oven: DO NOT touch the
interior
surfaces of the oven or the
exterior area
immediately surrounding
the door. Interior oven
surfaces become
hot enough to cause burns. The heat de-
flector, which deflects heat away from the
range and the trim on the top and sides
WARNING! To reduce the risk of tipping of the
appliance, it must be secured by a properly installed
anti
-
tip device. Verify that the anti
-
tip device
is
engaged per installation instructions (note:
anti
-
tip
device is required on all gas ranges.)
