• CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above a range or on the
backguard of a range - children climbing on the
range to reach items could be seriously injured.
• Proper Installation - Be sure the range is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
• Never Use the Range for Warming or Heating
the Room.
• Do Not Leave'Children Alone - Children should
not be left 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.
• Wear Proper Apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using
the range.
• User Servicing - Do not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically recommended in
the manual. All other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
• Storage in or on the Range - Flammable
materials should not be stored in an oven or
near surface cooking zones.
• Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires - Smother
fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
• Use Only Dry Pothotders - Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE COOKING ZONES
OR AREAS NEAR THEM - Surface Cooking Zones
may be hot even though they are dark in color.
Areas near surface cooking zones may become
hot enough to cause burns. During and after use,
do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact surface cooking zones or areas
near them until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Among those areas are the cooktop and
surfaces facing the cooktop.
• Use Proper Pan Size - The range is equipped
with one or more surface cooking zones of
different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the surface cooking zone
heating element. The use of undersized utensils
will expose a portion of the heating element to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also
improve efficiency.
• Never Leave Surface Cooking Zones Unattended
at High Heat Settings - Boiiover causes smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
• Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to
line oven bottom, except as suggested in the
manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in a risk of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for range-top
service without breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned inward and
Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface Cooking
Zones - To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle
of a utensil should be positioned so that it is
turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface cooking zones.
