•DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE UNITS,
OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE
OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements may be hot
even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units 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 cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and

should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let

with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-
type extinguisher.
•When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may
catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
• Use Only Dry Potholders—Moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the
potholders touch hot heating surface units or interior oven
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a
potholder.
•Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers—Build-up of pressure
may cause the container to burst and result in injury.
•Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to be
stored or discarded.

power failure. If the power fails, always turn the range off.
If the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the range
will begin to operate again. Food left unattended could catch fire
or spoil.
