IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
•
Gas leaks may occur in the system and result in a serious hazard. Gas leaks may
not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install
a UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the gas detector
manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish or around any part of the
oven. They will damage the finish.
•
To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance after each use.
•
Do not attempt to open or close the door or operate the oven until the door is properly
installed.
•
Never place fingers between the hinge and front oven frame. Hinge arms are spring
mounted. If accidentally hit, the hinge will slam shut against the oven frame and injure
your fingers.
CAUTION
•
Items of interest to children should not be placed in cabinets above the range or on
the backsplash of the range - children climbing on the range to reach items could be
seriously injured.
•
Do not leave children alone or unattended where a range is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
•
Do not let anyone climb, stand or hang on the oven door, warming drawer or cooktop.
They could damage the range or tip it over, causing severe personal injury.
•
Wear gloves when cleaning the range to avoid injury or burns.
•
Do not use the oven for storing food or cookware.
•
To prevent damage to the oven door, do not attempt to open the door when Lock is
displayed.
•
Do not stand or place excessive weight on an open door. This could tip the range,
break the door, or injure the user.
•
Do not use delayed baking for highly perishable foods such as dairy products, pork,
poultry, or seafood.
INSTALLATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Have the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-off valve and how to shut it
off if necessary.
WARNING
•
Make sure your range is properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer,
according to the installation instructions. Any adjustment and service should be
performed only by qualified gas range installers or service technicians.
•
Make sure your range is properly adjusted by a qualified service technician or installer
for the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be used. Your range can be converted for
use with either type of gas. See the installation instructions.
•
These adjustments must be done by a qualified service technician according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or property
damage. The qualified agency performing these adjustments assumes responsibility for
the conversion.
