•
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.
•
Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the appliance.
•
Never use the appliance door as a step stool or seat, as this may result in possible
tipping of the appliance and serious injuries.
•
This product should not be installed below ventilation type hood systems that direct air
in a downward direction.
Doing so may cause ignition and combustion problems with the gas burners resulting in
personal injury and may affect the cooking performance of the unit.
•
Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded, three-prong outlet in accordance with the National
Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord with this range.
•
To prevent fire hazard or electrical shock, do not use an adapter plug, an extension
cord, or remove the grounding prong from the electrical power cord. Failure to follow
this warning can cause serious injury, fire or death.
•
To prevent poor air circulation, place the range out of the kitchen traffic path and out of
drafty locations.
•
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your range unless it is specifically
mentioned in this manual. All other services should be referred to a qualified technician.
•
Make sure that all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it
to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.
