When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided Installation
Instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part
of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this guide. All other servicing
should be referred to a qualified technician.
• Have the installer show you the location of the
ciruit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE RANGE POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF
THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
WARNING—
All ranges can tip and injury could
result. To prevent accidental tipping
of the range, attach it to the wall and
floor by installing the Anti-Tip device
supplied.
To check if the device is installed and
engaged properly, remove the storage
drawer and inspect the rear leveling
leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.
If you pull the range out from the wall for any
reason, make sure the device is properly engaged
when you push the range back against the wall.
If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range
tipping over and causing injury if you or a child
stand, sit or lean on an open door.
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information
in this guide. Failure to take this precaution could
result in tipping of the range and injury.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• 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.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the range.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the range.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains
or drapes a safe distance from your range.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door, drawer or cooktop. They could
damage the range and even tip it over, causing
severe personal injury.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface units or
heating elements and may cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let
pot holders touch hot surface units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Such cloths can catch fire on a hot surface unit or
heating element.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance from
your range.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your range.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS
IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY
OTHER APPLIANCE.
• Keep hood and grease filters clean to maintain
good venting and to avoid grease fires.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in
the remote possibility that trichina may be present
in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be
safe to eat.
