When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s
Manual.

Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified
installer in accordance with the provided
installation instructions.

■ 

Have the installer show you the location 
of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for
easy reference.

■ 

Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.

■ 

Before performing any service, disconnect
the range power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.

■ 

Do not leave children alone—children
should not be left alone or unattended 
in an area where an appliance is in use.
They should never be allowed to sit or
stand on any part of the appliance.

■ 

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the door, storage drawer or
cooktop. They could damage the range
and even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury.

■ 

Do not store flammable materials in 
an oven or near the cooktop.

■ 

CAUTION:

Items of interest to

children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of 
a range–children climbing on the range 
to reach items could be seriously injured.

■ 

Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance. 
Be careful when reaching for items stored
over the range. Flammable material could
be ignited if brought in contact with hot
surface units or heating elements and 
may cause severe burns.

■ 

Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let pot holders
touch hot surface units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

■ 

Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls
off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface
unit by covering the pan completely with 
a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or 
foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or, 
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door 
and turning the oven off or by using 
a multi-purpose dry chemical or 
foam-type fire extinguisher.

■ 

For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Food splatter or cleaning solution
may penetrate a broken control panel and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately should your glass control panel become broken.
