IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION Do not attempt to operate the appliance during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off and the power resumes, electric surface elements may resume operation when power is restored. Once the power resumes, reset the clock and the oven function. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings - Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt. IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP CAUTION Use Proper Flame Size - Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency. Know which knob or key controls each surface heating area. Place cookware with food on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn the cooking area off before removing the cookware. Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware may expose a portion of the flame to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing or other items. Using the proper cookware on the cooking areas will improve efficiency. Glazed cooking utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use. When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on. IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN Protective liners-Do not use aluminum foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other materials or devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as recommended for baking, such as lining cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit. Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven. Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heatsensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or ignite. Save these instructions for future reference 7

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR GAS COOKTOP

Know which knob or key controls each surface

heating area. Place cookware with food on the

cooking area before turning it on. Turn the

cooking area off before removing the cookware.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped

with one or more surface units of different sizes.

Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the

surface unit heating element. The use of under-

sized cookware may expose a portion of the

flame to direct contact and may result in the

ignition of clothing or other items. Using the

proper cookware on the cooking areas will

improve efficiency.

Always turn knob to the full LITE position when

igniting top burners. Visually check that burner

has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not

extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable

materials, and spillage due to unintentional

contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil

should be positioned so that it is turned inward,

and does not extend over adjacent surface

burners

Never leave surface burners unattended at high

heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and

greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that

has boiled dry may melt.

Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of

glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or

other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top

service without breaking due to the sudden

change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s

recommendations for cook top use.

When you are flaming foods under a ventilating

hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR OVEN

Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil, after-

market oven liners, or any other materials or

devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any

other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as

recommended for baking, such as lining

cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other

use of protective liners or aluminum foil may

result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short

circuit.

Use care when opening oven door, lower oven

door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to

the side of the appliance when opening the door

of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before

you remove or replace food in the oven.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching

surfaces in this area when the oven is on may

cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heat-

sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These

items can melt or ignite.

Do not attempt to operate the appliance during

a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off

the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off

and the power resumes, electric surface

elements may resume operation when power is

restored. Once the power resumes, reset the

clock and the oven function.

Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so

it does not extend beyond the edge of the

utensil. The use of undersized utensils will

expose a portion of the burner flame to direct

contact and may result in ignition of clothing.

Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also

improve efficiency.
