from fuel combustion make sure this appliance
is installed, operated, and maintained according
to the instructions in this booklet.

Cooktop burners
Quality of Flames
On Natural Gas the burners’ flames should be
a blueish color with, at most, a slight yellowish
fringe.
On Propane gas the flames may be “softer”.
The cooktop burner flames may have a slight
yellowish tip.
If the flame burns with a long white tip you
should call for service.
Normal flame appearance Burner not fitted correctly
MAKE SURE THE FLOW OF COMBUSTION
AND VENTILATION AIR TO THE RANGE IS
UNOBSTRUCTED.
Use the Right Size Pan
This appliance is equipped with burners of
different sizes. Use utensils with flat bottoms.
Do not use unstable pans and position the
handles away from the edge of the cooktop.
Make sure the flames are under the pans. It’s
not safe to let the flames burn up the sides of
the pan; the handle may get too hot.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will
also improve efficiency.
Never Leave Cooktop burners unattended
at high settings. Pans boiling over can
cause smoking and greasy spills may
catch on fire.
Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil
to line cooktop bowls or oven bottoms.
Foil liners may result in a risk of electric
shock, or fire and will damage the enamel
finish. Never allow aluminum foil to
contact the heating elements.
Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for range-top use without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and
not over adjacent burners. If handles are
left over adjacent burners they will get
hot and may burn.
Ovens
Use Care When Opening Door
Let hot air and steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
Never heat unopened food containers.
Pressure build up may make container
burst and cause injury.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
