This range has been design certified by CSA
International. As with any appliance using gas and
generating heat, there are certain safety precautions
you should follow. You will find them in the Use and
Care Guide, read it carefully.
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• This range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70—latest edition. See Grounding Instructions in the
Electrical Requirements section of these Installation
Instructions.
• Before installing the range in an area covered with
linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make
sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least 90°F
above room temperature without shrinking, warping or
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless
you place an insulating pad or sheet of ¼" (10,16cm)
thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand the heat generated by the range.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the oven
vent nor around the base or beneath the lower front
panel of the range. Avoid touching the vent openings
or nearby surfaces as they may become hot while the
oven is in operation. This range requires fresh air for
proper burner combustion.
• Air curtains or other overhead range hoods, which
operate by blowing a downward air flow onto a range,
shall not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other
than when the hood and range have been designed,
tested and listed by an independent test laboratory for
use in combination with each other. This product is not
to be installed with this type of ventilation system.
Never leave children alone or unattended
in the area where an appliance is in use. As children
grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.
Never leave the oven door open when the range is
unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors
or drawers of this range can result in serious injuries and
can also cause damage to the range.
• Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets
above the range. Children could be seriously burned
climbing on the range to reach items.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface burners,
cabinet storage space above the burners should be
avoided.
