IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• 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.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the oven off or by using a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
Clean drip trays and liners after every use.
• If you smell gas,
the installer has not done a
proper job of checking for leaks. You can have
a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell if
the connections are not completely tight.
Finding a gas leak is
NOT
a do-it-yourself
procedure. Some leaks can only be found
with the burner control in the ON position
and for your protection it must be done by
a qualified service technician. Never use an
open flame to locate a leak.
• If by some chance a burner goes out and
gas escapes, open a window or a door to
let the room air out.
Do not attempt to use
the appliance until the gas has had time
to dissipate. Follow the instructions in
“What to do if You Smell Gas” on page 2.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of
the oven or cooktop.
Using a foil liner could
result in a fire hazard or the obstruction of
the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat
will be trapped underneath it. This trapped
heat can upset the cooking performance and
can damage the finish of the oven or the
cooktop.
SURFACE COOKING
• Do not heat unopened food containers;
a build-up of pressure may cause the
container to burst.
• Set the burner control so that the flame
heats only the bottom of the pan and does
not extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
Excessive flame is hazardous. The high BTU
burners can easily melt cookware handles.
• Hold the handle of the pan, using a dry pot
holder, to prevent movement of the utensil
when stirring or turning food.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting
the surface burners and make sure the
burners have ignited.
• Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch
on fire. If the burner flames are smothered
by a severe boilover which affects the ignitor,
unburned gas will escape into the room.
• Do not let pot holders come near open
flames when lifting cookware. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a
pot holder.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of
the range without extending over adjacent
burners.
• Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located at the top and bottom
of the oven door, in the front portion of the
drip tray and at the bottom of the backguard.
