■
Use this appliance for its intended purpose as
described in this Owner’s Manual.
■
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer 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
manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
■
Before performing any service, unplug the range
or disconnect the power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching
off the circuit breaker.
■
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 climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
■
CAUTION:
Do not store items of interest to
children above a range or on the backguard of a
range—children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
■
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 in place of pot holders.
■
Never use your appliance for warming or heating
the room.
■
Do not touch the surface units, the heating
elements or the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even
though they are dark in color. During and after use,
do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact the surface units, areas nearby
the surface units or any interior area of the oven;
allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces
of the appliance may become hot enough to cause
burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening and crevices around the
oven door.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
■
Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or
anywhere in the oven, except as described in this
manual. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in
damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.
■
Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook
tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass
breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken
glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.
■
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least
an internal temperature of 160°F and poultry to at
least an internal temperature of 180°F. Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
GENERAl SAFETY INSTRuCTIONS

Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven
or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot
holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
■
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. These garments may ignite if
they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
■
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease
in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
■
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
