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--1atest edition when installed in the United States. When installed in a manufactured (mobile) home, installation must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, 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 Installations, ANSl/NCSBCS A225.1, or with local codes. 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 & Care Guide, read it carefully. • 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 .70latest edition when installed in the United States. See Grounding Instructions on page 5. • 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-inch thick plywood between the range and carpeting. • Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range. • 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 burnercombustion. • Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which operate by blowing a downward air fiowon 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. 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. • Reset all controls to the "off" position after using a programmable timing operation. FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE: • Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage. Follow the cleaning instructions in the Use & Care Guide. • Unlike the standard gas range, THIS COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove the cooktop. DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO OPERATETH E ELECTRIC IGNiTiON OVEN DURING AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE. RESET ALL OVEN CONTROLS TO "OFF" iN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE. The electric ignito twill automatically re-ignite the oven bu rner when power resumes if the oven thermostat control was left in the "ON" position. When an electrical power failure occurs during use, the surface burners will continue to operate. During a power outage, the surface burners can be lit with a match. Hold a lighted match to the burner, then slowly turn the knob to the LITE position. Use extreme caution when lighting burners this way. Special instructions for appliances installed in the State of Massachusetts: This appliance can only be installed in the State of Massachusetts by a Massachusetts licensed plumber or gas fitter. When using a flexible gas connector, it must not exceed 3 feet (36 inches) in length. A "T" handle type manual gas valve must be installed in the gas supply line to this appliance.
