IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS, Continued
• Do not allow children to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an
open oven door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
• USER SERVICING: Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless it is
specifically recommended in this owner’s guide. To prevent personal injury and
damage to the range, servicing should be done only by a qualified technician.
• Storage in or on appliance: Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near
surface elements or in the storage drawer (some models). This includes paper, plastic
and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable
liquids. Do not use the oven for storage. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans,
on or near the range.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be stored or discarded.
• Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of this range can result in
serious injuries and cause damage to the range.
The following situations could cause bodily injury or property
damage.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS, OVEN
HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN UNTIL
THEY HAVE COOLED. Both surface elements and oven heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units and interior surfaces of the
appliance may become hot enough to cause burns–these areas include the cooktop,
surfaces facing the cooktop and the oven vent openings, and surface near these
openings, oven doors and windows.
• Make sure the reflector pans are always in place under the surface elements. This
avoids possible damage to wiring or components underneath and improves cooking
efficiency.
• It’s good practice for each household to have an appropriate fire extinguisher for
use in the event of a house fire.
• NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the
room. Operating surface elements at the HIGH setting without pots or
pans on the elements, could damage the range and result in fire.
• Wear proper apparel when operating the range. Loose fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact surface elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
• Never modify or alter the construction of the range such as removal of leveling legs,
panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets or any other permanent part of the product.
