SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not store or use gasoline, liquid propane cylinder or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this appliance.
The installation and service of your range must be performed by a qualified installer, an
approved service agency or the gas supplier.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of
natural gas fuel. When operating your range on natural gas, the flames from the burners
should be blue in color. In addition, the flames should be stable, free of yellow tipping,
excessive noise and lifting. However, this yellow tipping should be restricted to the primary
flame kernels only. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow
flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to those substances can be
minimized by venting with an open window or use of a ventilation fan or hood.
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT
This indoor cooking appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
three-pronged receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
