IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover
accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate,
before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports
when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light
even though the electronic igniters activate. See cleaning
instructions "Brass Star® Burner Base and Cast Iron Cap"
on page 36.
WARNING:
After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and
using caution due to possible hot surfaces,
clean around the burner and burner ports. After
cleaning, check for proper operation.
WARNING:
To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a
backguard designed specifically for this range
must be installed whenever the range is used.
Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not
use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot.
Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner
manufacturer.
Be sure all cooktop controls are turned off and the cooktop
is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or
around the cooktop. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or
cause metal parts to corrode.
When using the oven do not touch the broiler element, the
interior surfaces of the oven or the exterior area
immediately surrounding the door. Interior oven surfaces
become hot enough to cause burns. The heat deflector,
which deflects heat away from the cooktop and the trim on
the top and sides of the oven door, will also be hot when
the oven is in use.
Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a
rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the
potholders contact the broiler element.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing foods.
English 6
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, oven
racks, temperature probe and any other utensils, and
excess spillage.
Do not clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door
gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the
gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts
indicated in this booklet. Do not use commercial oven
cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or
around the self-cleaning oven(s).
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the range,
never sit, stand, or lean on the oven door.
Service should only be done by authorized technicians.
Technicians must disconnect the power supply before
servicing this unit.
Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the
oven controls are set to BROIL or BAKE modes, after oven
heats to 300°F/ 149°C — see "Automatic operation of the
cooling blower:" on page 30. If the fan does not operate, do
not use the oven. Call an authorized service center for
service.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally "flaming" liquor or other
spirits on the range's cooktop, follow manufacturer's
instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high
alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven.
Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of
burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven.
Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the
oven door carefully.
