WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose
as described in this Owner's Manual.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified installer in accordance
with the provided installation instructions.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
your range unless it is specifically recommended
in this manual. All other servicing should be
transferred to a qualified technician.
Before performing any service, unplug the range
or disconnect the power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker.
Do not leave children alone—children should not
be left alone or unattended in an area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
CAUTION
Do not store items of interest to
children above a range or on the backguard of a
range—children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface
units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not touch the surface units, the heating
elements or the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn
even though they are dark in color. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact the surface units,
areas nearby the surface units or any interior
area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling
first. Other surfaces of the appliance may
become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially
hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing
the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near
the opening and crevices around the oven door.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the
oven bottom or anywhere in the oven, except as
described in this manual. Oven liners can trap
heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product
and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook
tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to
glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with
broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.
Cook food thoroughly to help protect against
foodborne illness. Minimum safe food
temperature recommendations can be found at
www.IsItDoneYet.gov and www.fsis.usda.gov.
Use a food thermometer to take food
temperatures and check several locations.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease
should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood
or filter.
