IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
IMPOrTAnT SAFETY nOTICE
The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the imperfect combustion
of natural or LP gas. Correctly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow
flame, will minimize imperfect combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized
by opening windows or using a ventilation fan or hood.

•
This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
•
Never use your range as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
•
Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful
when reaching for items placed in cabinets over the range. Flammable materials could
be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe
burns.
•
Do not place or use combustible materials such as gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
•
Do not place flammable materials in the oven or near the cooktop.
•
Do not allow cooking grease or other flammable materials in or near the range.
•
Do not use water on grease fires. Never touch a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner 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.
A grease fire 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 upper oven or lower oven can be smothered completely by closing the
oven door and turning the control to off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
•
Do not use the oven or the drawer for storage.
•
Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them.
•
Never block the vents (air holes) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are
located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the
bottom of the range.
•
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air by blocking the oven vent
or air intakes. Doing so restricts air to the burner and may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning.
•
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack
with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
•
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can lead to broken or shattered glass.
•
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors or drawers of this range can result in serious
injuries and also cause damage to the range. Do not allow children to climb or play
around the range. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip,
resulting in serious burns or other injury.
•
Leak testing of the appliance must be conducted according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
