WARNING
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
■ Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven
or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot
holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. These garments may ignite if
they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
■ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease
in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING
■ 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.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother
the fire by closing the oven door and turning the
oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn
the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not
force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-
clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame
from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in severe burns.

Failure to follow this warning
statement could result in fire,
explosion, or burn hazard that could
cause property damage, personal

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO EXTINGUISH
AN OIL/GREASE FIRE WITH WATER.
■ Never leave the surface burners unattended. Foods,
especially oily foods, may ignite resulting in fire that
could spread to surrounding cabinets.
■ Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed
to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite
resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding
cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to monitor oil temperature.
■ To avoid oil spillover and fire, use the minimum
amount of oil when using a shallow pan-frying
and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive
amounts of ice.
■ Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware that is
matched to the size of the burner. Burner flames
should be adjusted so that they do not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive flame may
be hazardous.
■ Always use the LITE position when igniting the top
burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
■ When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it
is suitable for cooktop service; others may break
because of sudden change in temperature.
