important Safety instructions
Air curtain or other overhead range 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 listed by
an independent test laboratory for use in combination with
each other.
For electric ignition models only: Do not attempt to
operate the range during a power failure. If the power
fails, always turn off the range. If the range is not turned
off and the power resumes, the range will begin to operate
again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and oven
function.
Important Safety Notice
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
NEVER use this appliance as a space
heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
CARBON MONOXIDE poisoning.
^WARNING
I NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in
the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials
such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the
oven and may cause CARBON MONOXIDE poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
A WARNING I Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or
drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also
cause damage to the appliance. 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.
Storage in or on appliance — flammable
materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface
units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower
oven. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as
cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable
liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or
near the range.
Do not store items of interest to children in
the cabinets above a range or on the backguard of the
range. Children climbing on the range to reach items could
be seriously injured.
A WARNING I DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE —
children should not be left alone or unattended in the area
where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the
storage drawer, lower broiler drawer, warmer drawer or
lower double oven.
P1TOriTili1?| DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE BURNERS,
AREAS NEAR THESE BURNERS, OVEN BURNERS OR
INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN. Both surface and
oven burners may be hot even though flames are not
visible. Areas near surface burners may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch
these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Among these areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the
cook top, the oven vent openings and surfaces near
these openings, oven door and window.
Wear proper apparel — loose-fitting or
hanging garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces or open flames.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires
— smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
ry^mEa When heating fat or grease, watch it
closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become
too hot.
Use dry potholders — moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a
potholder.
Do not heat unopened food containers —
buildup of pressure may cause container to burst and
result in injury.
