IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION (cont'd)
• Do not allow children to climb or play around the
range. The weight of a child on an open oven door
may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns
or other injury.
• USER SERVICING: Do not repair or replace any
part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in this owner's guide. All other
servicing should be done only by a qualified
technician. This will reduce the risk of personal injury
and damage to the range.
WARNING: The following situations could result in property damage or bodily harm
IMPORTANT SAFEGAURDS
• Do not touch surface elements, areas near the
elements, or interior surfaces of the oven. Both surface
elements and oven may become hot enough to cause
burns. During and after use, do not touch or let
clothing or other flammable materials touch these
areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces facing the
cooktop, the oven vent openings, and surfaces near
these openings, oven door and windows.
• Never use your appliance to warm or heat the room.
Operating your range without utensils or pans to
absorb the unit's heat risks damaging the surface,
knobs, and controls.
• Wear proper apparel; lose fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance. Do
not let clothing or other flammable materials contact
surface elements or interior surfaces of the oven until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Never modify or alter the construction of the range.
Do not remove leveling legs, panels, wire covers,
anti-tip brackets or any other permanent part of the
product.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires. Smother
the fire with a pan lid, baking soda, or use a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
• Use only dry potholders; wet or damp potholders on
hot surfaces could result in burns from steam. Do not
let the potholders touch hot heating areas. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth instead of potholder.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom
except as suggested in the cleaning section of this
manual. Improper use of aluminum foil may result in a
fire hazard. Foil may also interfere with heat
circulation and damage the range.
• Storage in or on appliance: Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, near surface elements,
or in the storage drawer. This includes paper, plastic
and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and
towels, as well as flammable liquids.
Do not use the oven for storage. Do not store
explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.
• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is
to be stored or discarded.
• Stepping, leaning, or sitting on the doors or storage
drawer of this range can result in serious injuries and
can cause damage to the range.
• Placement of oven rack: Always place oven rack in
the desired location while the oven is cool. If rack
must be moved when the oven is hot, use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do
not let potholders contact hot oven walls. Remove all
cookware from the rack before moving.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of
pressure may cause the container to burst and result in
injury.
• Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed. The oven
vent is located along the bottom of the backgaurd.
Touching the surfaces in the vent area when the oven
is being operated may cause severe burns. Also, do
not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the
oven vents. These items could melt or ignite.
• A glowing light indicates a switch is turned on. Be
sure it indicates the element you want to use. Let it
serve as a reminder to turn off the element when
cooking is completed.
• Use care when operating oven door; Stand to the
side of the oven when opening the oven door. Slowly
open the door to allow hot air or steam to escape
before removing or replacing food.
• Place a pan of food on the element before turning it
on, and turn the element off before removing the pan.
• Cookware handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent elements, to reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the cookware.
• Never leave the surface elements unattended.
Boil-over may cause smoking and greasy spills may
catch fire or a pan which has boiled dry may melt.
• Do not place hands between the spring tension hinge
and the oven door frame when you are removing the
oven door. You could pinch your fingers.
