  • Page 5 - English - : Consumer SupportOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path and out of drafty locations to prevent poor air circulation Be sure all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer for the type of gas natural or LP that is to be used Your range can be converted for use with either type of gas See the Installation of the range section WARNING These adjustments must be made by a qualified service technician in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property damage The qualified agency performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion After prolonged use of a range high floor temperatures may result and many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of use Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting Do not leave children alone or unattended where a range is hot or in operation They could be seriously burned Do not allow anyone to climb stand or hang on the oven door storage drawer warming drawer or cooktop They could damage the range and even tip it over causing severe personal injury CAUTION Items of interest to children should not be stored in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a rangechildren climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured For your safety never use your appliance for warming or heating the room Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can lead to broken or shattered glass Never wear loosefitting 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 flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns Do not store flammable materials in an oven a range storage drawer a warming drawer or near a cooktop Do not store or use combustible materials gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range Do not use water on grease fires Never pick up a flaming pan Turn the controls off Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely with a wellfitting lid cookie sheet or flat tray Use a multipurpose dry chemical or foamtype fire extinguisher Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering it with baking soda or if available by using a multipurpose dry chemical or foamtype fire extinguisher Flame in the oven or warming drawer can be smothered completely by closing the oven door or drawer and turning the control to off or by using a multipurpose dry chemical or foamtype fire extinguisher Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them or leaving them where children can reach them Never block the vents air openings of the range They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop at the top and bottom of the oven door and at the bottom of the range under the warming drawer storage drawer or kick panel Do not lift the cooktop Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of the range SAFETY PRECAUTIONS wwwGEAppliancescom
  • Page 6 - English - : SURFACE BURNERS IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING Operating Instructions Safety InstructionsInstallation Instructions Troubleshooting TipsConsumer Support Use proper pan sizeavoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates To avoid spillovers 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 spillovers left on range can ignite Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited Never leave the surface burners unattended at high flame settings Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware Excessive flame is hazardous Use only dry pot holdersmoist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder When using glass cookware make sure it is designed for topofrange cooking To minimize the possibility of burns ignition of flammable materials and spillage turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting Always heat fat slowly and watch as it heats Do not leave any items on the cooktop The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers which may cause them to burst If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying stir together before heating or as fats melt slowly Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deepfat frying Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added Do not flame foods on the cooktop If you do flame foods under the hood turn the fan on Do not use a wok on the cooking surface if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok This ring acts as a heat trap which may damage the burner grate and burner head Also it may cause the burner to work improperly This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards resulting in a health hazard Foods for frying should be as dry as possible Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan Never try to move a pan of hot fat especially a deep fat fryer Wait until the fat is cool Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop they may melt if left too close to the vent Keep all plastics away from the surface burners To avoid the possibility of a burn always be certain that the controls for all burners are at the OFF position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them If range is located near a window do not hang long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and create a fire hazard If you smell gas turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician Never use an open flame to locate a leak Always turn the surface burner controls off before removing cookware WARNING
  • Page 7 - English - : The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature Always start with hot food cold food cannot be heated or cooked in the warming drawer Do not use the warming drawer to dry newspapers If overheated they can catch on fire Do not leave paper products cooking utensils or food in the warming drawer when not in use Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your warming drawer Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your warming drawer Do not warm food in the warming drawer for more than two hours Do not touch the heating element or the interior surface of the warming drawer These surfaces may be hot enough to burn REMEMBER The inside surface of the warming drawer may be hot when the drawer is opened Use care when opening the drawer Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands face andor eyes Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it This will upset the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior finish ELECTRIC WARMING DRAWER Consumer SupportOperating InstructionsSafety Instructions Installation Instructions Troubleshooting Tips wwwGEAppliancescom
