Electrical Shock Hazard
✓Before removing a faulty oven light bulb, make sure you turn OFF the
power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. If youdon’t
know how to do this, contact an electrician.
✓Do not remove the kick panel or the back panel. Due to electrical wires
behind it, both panels should only be removed by a qualifiedtechnician.
✓This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded power outlet. Do not under any circumstances cutor
remove the grounding prong from this plug.
Failure to follow this advice may result in death or electrical shock.
Tipping Hazard
All ranges can tip and cause injuries to adults and children. To prevent
tipping, install the anti-tip device supplied with your range. Follow all
installation instructions.
✓ Even after the safety device is installed, do not step, lean or sit on the
oven door or place any heavy objects on it. Doing so may result in
personal injury.
Make sure anti-tip device is installed as follows:
1. Slide the range forward.
2. Install the anti-tip device as described in the instructionsheet
3. Safely tilt the front section of the range and slide the range slowly back against the wall.
4. The rear pins should slide under the bracket.
Do not use the appliance until it has been secured.
Failure to follow this advice may result in serious injury.

Explosion Hazard
✓If you smell gas, do not use the appliance. Open a window or door to let
the gas escape, then follow the instructions on the inside front cover of
this manual.
✓Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam explosion mayresult.
✓Turn all burners off, then smother fire or flame with a dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher. Do not try to smother with flammableblankets.
✓Do not heat unopened food containers such as cans. Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result ininjury.
Failure to follow this advice may result in injury or death
Fire Hazard
✓Never use your appliance as a space heater. Persons could be injured or
a fire could start.
✓Keep the area around the appliance free from combustible materials (e.g.
wall coverings, curtains, drapes), gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
✓ Clean the stove and burners regularly.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate on the
surfaces or near the appliance.
✓Do not hang any articles (e.g. dish towels) off the oven handle. Some fabrics may ignite ormelt
from the heat.
✓ Never leave the cooktop burners unattended when in use. Boil over causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
✓Never spray an aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance while burners are lit, Be sure all the
controls are turned off and the appliance is cool. The aerosol gas and chemicals in such
cleaners could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts tocorrode.
✓ Do not store flammables near cooktop
Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near the cooktop. An accident could
cause a serious fire.

Safety and warnings
8
Poisoning Hazard
✓Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an
entire rack or the oven floor with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks airflow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
✓Clean the appliance with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow
the directions of the cleaner manufacturer.
✓Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance.
Failure to follow this advice may result in poisoning or death.
Hot Surface Hazard
Accessible parts may become hot during use.
✓Do not touch burners, areas near burners, the grill, griddle, grease drip-
pans, heating elements or interior surfaces of oven. These may be hot
enough to cause burns even though they are dark in color. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact these parts and surfaces until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Other parts and surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough
to cause burns - among these areas are the grates, back trim and oven
vents at the back of the cooktop, front edge, surfaces adjacent to the
cooktop, and the oven door.
✓Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
✓Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it.
Failure to follow this advice could result in burns andscalds.
