Important safety instructions
•
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of
the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
SURFACE COOKING UNITS
•
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
•
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 a
risk of electric shock or fire.
•
To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil
when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods that
have excessive amounts of ice.
•
Do not lift the cooktop.
Lifting the cooktop can damage the
range and cause the range to malfunction.
•
Do not operate the cooktop without cookware.
If the cooktop
operates without cookware, the control knobs will become
hot.
•
Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
•
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom with a paper tower
or rag before self-cleaning. Self-cleaning the oven when there
is heavy soil on the oven bottom requires longer cleaning
cycles and produces more smoke.
•
Storage in or on the appliance.
Do not store flammable
materials in the oven or near the surface units. Be sure all
packing materials are removed from the appliance before
operating it. Keep plastics, clothes, and paper away from
parts of the appliance that may become hot.
•
Wear proper apparel.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance.
•
Use only dry potholders.
Placing moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
the potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
•
Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part
of the range.
•
For your safety, do not use high-pressure water cleaners or
steam jet cleaners.
•
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons
to avoid creating a hazard.
