IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as
described in this Owner's Manual.
• FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with
the cooktop ON. Keep flammable items away from
the cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
serious injury or death.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the
provided installation instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your
range unless it is specifically recommended in this
manual. All other servicing should be transferred to a
qualified technician.
• Before performing any service, unplug the range
or disconnect the power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off
the circuit breaker.
• Do not leave children alone—children should not be left
alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in
use. They should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
CAUTION
• Do not store items of interest to
children above a range or on the backguard of a range—
children climbing on the range to reach items could be
seriously injured.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in
place of pot holders.
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE OVEN
WARNING
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
• Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or
near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders,
linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they
contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
2
• Never use your appliance for warming or heating the
room.
• Do not touch the surface units, the heating elements or
the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be
hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other flammable materials contact the surface units,
areas nearby the surface units or any interior area of
the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough
to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the
cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven
door.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could
build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
• Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the oven
bottom or anywhere in the oven, except as described in
this manual. Oven liners can trap heat or melt, resulting
in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or
fire.
• Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook tops or
control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do
not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or
cuts may occur.
• Cook food thoroughly to help protect against
foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature
recommendations can be found at IsItDoneYet.gov and
fsis.usda.gov . Use a food thermometer to take food
temperatures and check several locations.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials
accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or
on the cooktop may ignite.
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
