IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of this range must conform with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1—latest edition.
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.
• Air curtain or other overhead hoods, which operate
by blowing a downward air flow on to a range, shall
not be used in conjunction with gas ranges other
than when the hood and range have been designed,
tested and listen by an independent test laboratory
for use in combination with each other.
• 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.
• The installation of appliances designed for manufactured
(mobile) home installation must conform with Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standard, title 24CFR, part
3280 [Formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD (part 280)] or
when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225.1/NFPA
501A-latest edition, or with local codes.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range
can withstand the heat generated by the range.
• 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 1/4"(0,635 cm) thick plywood between the
range and carpeting.
• 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.
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.
• Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
• Do not use the oven as a storage space. This
creates a potentially hazardous situation.
• Never use your range for warming or heating the
room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head and slowly turn
the Surface Control knob to LITE. Use caution when
lighting surface burners manually.
• Reset all controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
• Remove oven racks, broiler pan, food and other
utensils before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up
excess spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in
the Use and Care Guide.
To reduce the risk of tipping
of the range, the range
must be secured by properly
installed anti-tip bracket
provided with the range.
To check if the bracket is
installed properly, grasp the
top rear edge of the range
and carefully tilt it forward
to make sure the range is
anchored.
• All ranges
can tip.
• Injury to
persons
could result.
• Install anti-
tip device
packed with
range.
