IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
• Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
• Use Proper Pan Size--This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat
bottoms largeenough to cover the surface unit heating element,
The useof undersized utensilswill expose aportion of the heating
element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve
efficiency.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent Surface Elements--To reduce the riskof
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 elements.
Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
. Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the range. Only use aluminum foil
as recommended in the Cooking Guide. Any other use of
protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric
shock or fire.
- Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensilsare
suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for rangetop use.
FOR GLASS COOKTOPS ONLY
o Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop--tf cooktop should break,
cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.
• Clean cooktop with Caution--If a wet sponge orcloth isused
to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam
burn. Some cleanerscan produce harmful fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Door--Stand to the side of the
range when opening the door of a hot oven, Let hot air or
steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven is vented
between the cooktop and the backguard. Touching the surfaces
in this area when the oven isoperating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
o Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired
location while oven iscool. If rack must be moved while oven is
hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack
with both hands to reposition, Do not let potholders contact the
hot oven element or interior of the oven, Remove all utensils from
the rack before removing rack,
, Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan
and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the
high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil. Exposed
fat and grease could ignite.
o Do not touch a hot light bulb (some models) with a damp
cloth. Doing so could causethe bulb to break. Disconnect the
range or turn off the power to the range before removing and
replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
