g;ipunASafety Instructions
l
Install or locate the range only in
accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. The range
must be installed by a qualified
installer. The range must be
properly connected to the proper
gas supply and checked for leaks.
The range must also be properly
connected to electrical suppfy and
grounded.
l
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
tipping of the appliance, the
appliance must be secured by
properly installed anti-tip bracket.
To check if the bracket is installed
properly, shine a flashlight under
range toward left rear corner and
verii that anti-tip bracket is
engaged. See Installation Instruc-
tions for further details.
l
Gas fuels and their use in
appliances can cause minor
exposures to benzene, formalde-
hyde, carbon monoxide and soot,
primarily from incomplete combus-
tion. Significant exposure to these
substances can cause cancer or
reproductive harm. Properly
adjusted burners with a blue, rather
than a yellow, flame will minimize
incomplete combustion. Venting
with a hood or an open window will
further minimize exposure.
l
Do not operate the range if it is
damaged or not working properly.
l
Do not use the range for warming
or heating the room. Persons could
be burned or injured, or a fire could
start.
l
Do not attempt to light the oven
burner during a power failure.
Personal injury could result. Reset
oven controls to the off position in
the event of a power failure.
l
Use the range only for its intended
use as described in this manual.
l
Do not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the range.
They could ignite if they touch a hot
surface burner and you could be
burned.
l
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE
BURNERS, AREAS NEAR
BURNERS OR INTERIOR SUR-
FACES OF OVEN. Areas near
surface burners and interior
surfaces of an oven become hot
enough to cause burns. During use,
do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact
surface burners, areas near surface
burners or interior surfaces of oven.
Other surfaces of the range may
become hot enough to cause
burns; such as, the oven vent
opening, the surface near the vent
opening, the cooktop, the oven
door and window.
l
Make sure the utensils you use are
large enough to contain food and
avoid boilovers and spillovers.
Heavy splattering or spillovers left
on a range can ignite and burn you.
Pan size is especially important in
deep fat frying.
l
Turn pan handles inward, but not
over other surface burners. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials, and
spills due to bumping of the pan.
l
Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on surface
burners may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder touch
surface burners. Do not use a towel
or bulky cloth for a potholder. It
could catch on fire.
