WARNING
To prevent or reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the range, follow
these basic precautions:
●
Read all instructions before using the range.
●
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of
a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
●
Proper Installation - Be sure the range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified
technician.
●
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
●
Do not leave children alone - children should not be left alone or unattended in area where
the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance.
●
Do not store flammable materials in or on a range or near the surface units.
●
Do not use water on grease fires - smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam- type
extinguisher.
●
Use only dry potholders - moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth.
●
Use proper pan size - this appliance is equipped with one or more surface
units of different sizes. Select cookware having flat bottoms and large enough to cover the
heating element of the surface unit. The use of proper size cookware or pans will improve
heating efficiency.
●
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings – boil over causes smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite.
●
Make sure reflector pans or drip bowls are in place - absence of these pans or bowls during
cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to be damaged.
●
Protective liners - do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms,
except as suggested in the manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in the
risk of electric shock, or fire.
●
Glazed cookware - only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed cookware are suitable for range top service without breaking due to sudden
change in temperature.
●
Cookware/pan handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface
units – to minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the cookware/pan handle
●
Do not soak removable heating elements – heating elements should never be immersed in
water.
●
Do not cook on broken cooktop, in which cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate
and cause electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately if the cooktop is
broken.
