Safety Practices for Servicer
Safeand satisfactoryoperation ofgas rangesdepends
uponits designand properinstallation. However,there is
one more area of safety to be considered:
Servicing
Listedbelow aresome generalprecautions andsafety
practices which should be followed in order to protect the
servicetechnician andconsumer duringserviceand after
servicehas beencompleted.
1. Gas smell—Extinguish any and all open flames and
openwindows.
2. Turngasoff—Service rangewithgas turnedoffunless
testing requires it.
3. Checkingfor gasleaks—Nevercheck forleaks with
any kind of open flame. Soap and water solution
should be used for this purpose. Apply solution to
suspectedarea andwatch forair bubbleswhich
indicates a leak. Correct leaks by tightening fittings,
screws,connections, applyingapprovedcompound,
orinstalling newparts.
4. Usinglights—Usea handflashlight whenservicing
ranges or checking for gas leaks. Electric switches
shouldnot beoperated whereleaks aresuspected.
This will avoid creating arcing or sparks which could
ignite the gas. If electric lights are already turned on,
they should not be turned off.
5. Donotsmoke—Never smokewhile servicinggas
ranges,especially whenworking onpiping that
contains or has contained gas.
6. Checkrangewhen serviceis completed—After
servicing, make visual checks on electrical
connection, and check for gas leaks. Inform
consumerof theconditionof rangebeforeleaving.
7. Adhere to all local regulations and codes when
performingservice.
Receiving Oven
• Installerneeds toshow consumerlocation ofthe range
gasshut-off valveand howto shutit off.
• Authorized servicer must install the range, in
accordancewith theInstallation Instructions.
Adjustmentsand serviceshould beperformed onlyby
authorizedservicer.
• Plug range into a 120–volt grounded outlet only. Do not
removeround groundingprongfrom theplug.If indoubt
about grounding of the home electrical system, it is
consumer'sresponsibility andobligation tohave an
ungroundedoutlet replacedwitha properlygrounded
three-prongoutlet inaccordance withthe National
Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord with this
appliance.
• Insureall packingmaterials areremovedfrom therange
beforeoperating it,to preventfireor smokedamage
should the packing material ignite.
• Ensure range is correctly adjusted by a qualified
service technician or installer for the type of gas
(Naturalor LP).Some rangescan beconvertedfor use
with Natural or LP gas.
•Withprolonged useof arange,high floortemperatures
could result. Many floor coverings will not be able to
withstandthis kindof use.Never installrange overvinyl
tile or linoleum that cannot withstand high
temperatures.Never installrangedirectly over
carpeting.
Safety Information

RS2310004 Rev.1 8
Using the Oven
• Donot leavechildrenalone orunattended wherea
range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously
burned.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the
door. Theycould damagetherange andcause severe
personalinjury.
• Wearproper apparel.Loose fittingorhanging garments
shouldnever bewornwhen usingoven.Flammable
material could ignite if brought in contact with flame or
hotoven surfaceswhich maycause severeburns.
• Neveruse rangefor warmingor heating aroom. This
may cause burns, injuries, or a fire.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
• Do not let grease or other flammable materials collect
inor aroundrange.
• Do not repair or replace any part of range unless it is
recommendedin thismanual.
• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces may result in a burn from steam.
Do not let a potholder touch the flame. Do not use a
towel or a bulky cloth as a potholder.
• Neverleave range unattendedwhilecooking.Boilovers
can cause smoking and may ignite.
• Only certain types of glass/ceramic, earthenware, or
otherglazed utensilsare suitablefor ovenuse.
Unsuitable utensils may break due to sudden
temperaturechange.
• Usecare whenopening ovendoor. Lethot airor steam
escapebefore removingorreplacingfood.
• Donot heatunopened foodcontainersin oven.
Build-up of pressure may cause a container to burst
and result in injury.
• Keeprange ventducts unobstructed.
• Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool.
If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, use a dry
potholder.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom or racks.
Aluminum foil can cause a fire will seriously affect
bakingresults, anddamage toporcelain surface's.
• Donot touchinterior surfacesof ovenduringor
immediately after use. Do not let clothing or other
flammable materials come in contact with bake or broil
burners.
• Otherareas ofthe ovencan becomehot enoughto
causeburns, suchas ventopenings,window, ovendoor
andoven racks.
• To avoid steam burns, do not use a wet sponge or cloth
to wipe up spills on hot cooking area.
• Do not store combustible or flammable materials, such
as,gasoline orother flammablevapors andliquidsnear
orin oven.
• Do not clean oven door gasket located on back of the
door. Gasket is necessary to seal the oven and can be
damagedas aresult ofrubbingor beingmoved.
• Donot drapetowels orany materialson ovendoor
handles. These items may ignite causing a fire.
CAUTION
!
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets
aboverange. Childrenmayclimb onoventoreach
these items and become seriously injured.
Baking, Broiling, and Roasting
• Donot useoven areaforstorage.
• Standback fromrange whenopening doorof ahot
oven. Hot air or steam can cause burns to hands, face,
and eyes.
• Donot usealuminum foilanywhere inthe oven.This
could result in a fire hazard and damage the range.
• Use only glass cookware appropriate for use in gas
ovens.
• Alwaysremove broilerpanfromoven whenfinished
broiling. Grease left in pan can catch fire if oven is used
withoutremoving greasefromthe broilerpan.
• When broiling, meat that is close to the flame may
ignite. Trim any excess fat to help prevent excessive
flare-ups.
• Make sure broiler pan is placed correctly to reduce any
possibility of grease fires.
• Should a grease fire occur in the broiler pan, turn off
oven,and keepoven doorclosed untilfire burnsout.

installing gas fitting.
WARNING
!
To avoid property damage or personal injury, only use
a new flexible connector that is AGA/CGA design
certified.
• Do not use an old connector.
• Do not reuse a connector after moving appliance.
• Refer to National Fuel Gas Code or local codes for
supply pipe size requirements, to assure sufficient gas
is supplied to the unit.
