Important Safety Instructions
AWARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using
the range, follow basic precautions, in­
cluding the following:
General
•Read all instructions before using
the range.
• Install or locate the range only in
accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. The
range must be installed by a qua­
lified installer. The range must be
properly connected to electrical
supply and grounded.
•WARNING: To reduce the risk of
tipping the appliance, the appli­
ance must be secured by a
properly installed anti-tip bracket.
To check if the bracket is
installed properly, see “The
anti-tip bracket” on page 20.
•CAUTION: Do not store things
children might want above the
range. Children could be burned
or injured while climbing on it.
•Do not leave children alone or
unattended in area where the
range is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the range. They
could be burned or injured.
•Do not operate the range if it is
damaged or not working properly.
•Do not use the range for warming
or heating the room. Persons
could be burned or injured, or a
fire could start.
•Use the range only for its intended
use as described in this manual.
►Do not touch surface units, areas
near units, heating elements, or
interior surfaces of oven. Surface
units and heating elements could
be hot even though they are dark
in color. Areas near surface units
and interior surfaces of an oven
become hot enough to cause
burns. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact
surface units, areas near units,
heating elements, or interior sur­
faces of oven until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Other sur­
faces of the range, such as the
oven vent opening, the surface
near the vent opening, the
cooktop, and the oven door and
window could also become hot
enough to cause burns.
• Do not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the range.
They could ignite if they touch a
hot surface unit and you could be
burned.
