•When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become
too hot.
•Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements, the flame or burners. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
•Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
•Stepping, leaning or sitting on this appliance can result in serious injuries and also cause
damage to the appliance.
•Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
•Know which knob controls which cooktop burner. Visually check that the burner has lit. Then
adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge ofthe pots and pans.
•Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on hood
or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When cooking food turn the hood, fan on. Refer
to hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
•Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners. To
reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with
the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners.
•Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings. Boil overs cause smoke and
greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
7

•Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the appliance. Use aluminum foil only to cover food
during cooking. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
•Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for appliance service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for appliance use.
•Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a burner is accidentally turned on, the
decorative cover will become hot and possibly melt. You will not be able to see that the burner is on.
Burns will occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the range or burners
because the covers may cause overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems.
•Always use proper flame size. Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
•Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cooking
utensil.
•Use the proper pan sizes. This appliance is equipped with surface units of different sizes. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit. The use of undersized utensils
will expose a portion of the surface heating unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to the surface unit will also improve efficiency.
•Do not use stove top grills on your gas appliance. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas
burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your health.

Ventilation Requirements
The range should have proper ventilation in order to keep the unit operating properly and maintain the
temperature of immediate surroundings within safe limits. Check your local building codes as they
may vary from the general rules outlined in this guide. It is recommended that a hood be installed
above the range that is rated no less than 400 CFM. This will provide adequate ventilation for this
range. Mounting distance of your ventilation is outlined by the manufacturer of your hood and is
dependent on the total BTU output of your range.
•Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Do not obstruct flow of combustion and ventilation
air.
•It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the
model/serial rating plate.
•For proper operation of a gas appliance, the air necessary for the combustion of the gas must be
able to flow into the room naturally. The air must flow into the room directly through openings in the
outside walls. These openings must have an unobstructed cross-section not less than 2m3/h for each
kw of power (see total power in kw on the appliance).
•This opening must be constructed so that it will not be obstructed from inside or outside, and
not be constructed close to the floor. The opening is recommended to be on the side opposite to that
on which the flue gases are discharged.
•The range should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
•Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of the sides and rear of the range.
10

•To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by
reaching over heated surface units, cabinet
storage space located above the surface units
should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing
a range hood or microwave hood combination
with minimum 400 CFM that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond
the bottom of the cabinets. (See Figure 1)
•If a range hood is installed above the
appliance, maintain a 30” minimum clearance
between cooking surface and bottom of range
hood. The range hood must be connected
directly to flues or to the outside. (See Figure
1)
•Avoid placing cabinetry directly above
the appliance when possible. If cabinetry is
used above the cooking surface, use cabinets
no more than 13″ deep. Make sure the wall
coverings, countertop and cabinets around the
appliance can withstand heat up to 200º F
(93°C) generated by the appliance. (See
Figure 1)
•Cabinet opening dimensions that are
shown must be used. Given dimensions are
minimum clearances. (See Figure 1)
•Working areas adjacent to the range
should have 18″ minimum clearance between
countertop and cabinet bottom. (See Figure 1)
•All openings in the wall or floor where
range is to be installed must be sealed.
•Contact a qualified floor covering installer
to check that the floor covering can withstand
at least 200°F (93°C).
•Use an insulated pad or ¼" (0.64 cm)
plywood under range if installing range over
carpeting.
•The floor anti-tip bracket must be
installed. To install the anti-tip bracket shipped
with the range, see “Install Anti-Tip Bracket”
section.
•Grounded electrical supply is required.
See “Electrical Requirements” section.
•Proper gas supply connection must be
available. See “Gas Supply Requirements”
section.
