•
Before moving cookware full of fats or oils, make sure it has completely
cooled.
•
To prevent delayed eruptive boiling, always allow heated liquids to stand at
least 20 seconds after you have turned off the burner so that the temperature
in the liquid can stabilize. In the event of scalding, follow these first aid
instructions:
1.
Immerse the scalded area in cool or lukewarm water for at least 10
minutes.
2.
Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.
Cover with a clean, dry cloth.
3.
Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the range. They could
•
ignite and burn you if they touch a surface burner.
•
Never leave plastic items on the cooktop. Hot air from the vent can melt or
ignite plastic items or cause a build up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic
containers.
•
Do not place portable appliances, or any other object other than cookware on
the cooktop. Damage or fire could occur if the cooktop is hot.
•
Always make sure foods being fried are thawed and dry. Moisture of any kind
can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
•
Always make sure the controls are OFF and the grates are cool before you
remove them to prevent any possibility of being burned.
•
Do not put any combustible material or items around the range.
•
Take care that your hands do not touch the burners when they are on. Turn off
the burners when you change a pan or pot.
•
To warm liquid such as sauces, stir it while warming.

•
Place pots in the center of the grate. Do not
place a pot larger than 9" in diameter on the
rear burners. If you place an oversized pot in
the wrong position, it might disrupt necessary
air circulation and make the flame on the
burner sputter and burn inefficiently.
Oven safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
•
Do not use the oven for non-cooking
purposes such as drying clothes or storage.
Use the oven for cooking only.
•
Make sure the inner portion of the split oven-
rack is in the proper position within the outer
rack.
•
Make sure the oven racks are placed on the
same level on each side.
•
Do not damage, move, or clean the door
gasket.
•
Do not spray water on the oven glass while the oven is on or just after you
have turned it off.
•
Do not use aluminium foil or foil liners anywhere in the oven. Do not use
aluminium foil or similar material to cover any holes or passages in the oven
bottom or to cover an oven rack. This can cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
•
Stand away from the oven when opening the oven door.
•
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
•
When repositioning the oven racks, make sure the oven is completely cool.
•
Only use cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
•
To avoid damaging the burner control knobs, always bake and/or broil with
the oven door closed.
•
Do not broil meat too close to the burner flame. Trim excess fat from meat
before cooking.
•
When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer's
directions.
•
NEVER cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an
entire rack with material 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.
