IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
• Do not store items of interest to children
in the cabinets above the appliance or
on the backguards of ranges. Children
climbing on or near the appliance to
reach items could be seriously injured.
• Do not allow children to climb or play
around the appliance. The weight of a
child on an open oven door may cause
the appliance to tip, resulting in serious
burns or other injury. An open drawer
when hot may cause burns. Stepping,
leaning, or sitting on the door or draw-
ers of this appliance can result in serious
injuries and also cause damage to the
appliance.
• Never cover any slots, holes or passages
in the oven bottom or cover and entire
rack with materials such as aluminum
foil. Doing so blocks air fl ow through the
oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also
trap heat, causing a fi re hazard.
• Do not use oven or warmer drawer (if
equipped) for storage.
• Never use your appliance as a space
heater to heat or warm the room. Do-
ing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the appli-
ance.
CAUTION
• Use dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholders
touch hot cooking areas. Do not use
towels or other bulky cloths.
• Do not heat unopened food containers -
Build-up of pressure may cause contain-
er to burst and result in injury.
• Wear proper apparel - Loose-fi tting or
hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance. Do not let
clothing or other fl ammable materials
contact hot surfaces.
• Do not touch surface burners or el-
ements, areas near these burners or
elements, interior surfaces of the oven, or
the warmer drawer (if equipped). Sur-
face burners and elements may be hot
even though they appear cool. Areas
near surface burners and elements may
become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or
let clothing or other fl ammable materi-
als touch these areas until they are cool.
These areas may include the cooktop,
surfaces facing the cooktop, oven vent
areas, oven door, and oven window.
• Do not attempt to operate the appli-
ance during a power failure. If the power
fails, always turn off the appliance. If the
appliance is not turned off and the pow-
er resumes, electric surface elements
may resume operation when power is
restored. Once the power resumes, reset
the clock and the oven function.
CAUTION
• When heating fat or grease, watch it
closely. Grease may catch fi re if it be-
comes too hot.
• Do not use water or fl our on grease fi res.
Smother fi re or fl ame or use dry chemical
or foam-type extinguisher. Cover the fi re
with a pan lid or use baking soda.
