touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth as the bulb may break.
Use a dry potholder, to prevent possible harm to hands,
and very carefully unscrew bulb cover and bulb.
Replace with a 40 watt appliance bulb. Replace bulb
cover and reconnect power to range. Reset clock.
Oven Door
Do not place excessive weight on an open oven door or
stand on an open oven door as, in some cases, it could
cause the range to tip over, break the door or cause seri-
ous injury to the user.
When opening the oven door, allow steam and hot air to
escape before reaching in oven to check, add or remove
food.
Do not attempt to open or close door until the door is
completely seated on the hinge arms. Never turn on the
oven unless door is properly in place. When baking, be
sure the door is completely closed. Baking results will be
affected if the door is not securely closed.
To remove lift-off door:
Open the door to the “stop” po-
sition (opened about 6 inches) and grasp the door with
both hands at each side. Do not use the door handle to lift
the door. Lift up evenly until the door clears the hinge
arms.
CAUTION:
Hinge arms are spring mounted and will slam
shut against the range if accidently hit.
Never place
hand or fingers between the hinges and the front
oven frame.
You could be injured if hinge snaps back.
To replace door:
Grasp the door at each side, align
slots in the door with the hinge arms and slide the door
down onto the hinge arms until completely seated on
hinges.
Storage Drawer
The storage drawer at the bottom of the range is safe and
convenient for storing metal and glass cookware. DO
NOT store plastic, paperware, food or flammable mate-
rial in this drawer. Remove drawer to clean under range.
To remove:
Empty drawer then pull drawer out to the
first stop position. Lift up front of drawer and pull to the
second stop position. Grasp sides and lift up and out to
remove drawer.
To replace:
Fit the ends of the drawer glides onto the
rails. Lift up drawer front and gently push in to first stop
position. Lift up drawer again and continue to slide
drawer to the closed position.
Leveling Legs
To prevent range from accidently tipping, range should
be secured to the floor by sliding a rear leveling leg into
the anti-tip bracket supplied with the range.
PAGE 15
Some floors are not level.
For proper baking, your
range must be level. Level-
ing legs are located on each
corner of the base of the
range. Level by turning the
legs.
