Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a
damp cloth as the bulb could break. Should
the bulb break, disconnect power to the
appliance before removing bulb to avoid
electrical shock.

OOKING AFETY
Always place a pan on a surface burner
before turning it on. Be sure you know
which knob controls which surface burner.
Make sure the correct burner is turned on
and that the burner has ignited. When
cooking is completed, turn burner off be-
fore removing pan to prevent exposure to
burner flame.
Always adjust surface burner flame so that
it does not extend beyond the bottom edge
of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous,
wastes energy and may damage the appli-
ance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.
NEVER leave a surface cooking operation
unattended especially when using a high
heat setting or when deep fat frying.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills
as soon as possible. Do not use high heat for
extended cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on
the surface burner or in the oven. Pressure
build-up may cause container to burst re-
sulting in serious personal injury or damage
to the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp pot-
holders may cause burns from steam.
Dishtowels or other substitutes should
never be used as potholders because they
can trail across hot surface burners and
ignite or get caught on appliance parts.
Always let quantities of hot fat used for
deep fat frying cool before attempting to
move or handle.
Do not let cooking grease or other flam-
mable materials accumulate in or near the
rangetop or in the vents. Clean frequently
to prevent grease from accumulating.
NEVER wear garments made of flam-
mable material or loose fitting or long-
S I
AFETY NSTRUCTIONS
sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing
may ignite or catch utensil handles.
Use care when opening the oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before moving or
replacing food.
NEVER use aluminum foil inside the grill
area, to cover oven racks or oven bottom.
This could result in risk of electric shock,
fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil
only as directed in this guide.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Fol-
low food manufacturer's instructions. If a
plastic frozen food container and/or its
cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise dam-
aged during cooking, immediately discard
the food and its container. The food could
be contaminated.
U
TENSIL
Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that
are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid
using unstable, warped, easily tipped or
loose-handled pans. Also avoid using pans,
especially small pans, with heavy handles as
they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans
that are heavy to move when filled with
food may also be hazardous.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size
is particularly important in deep fat frying.
Be sure pan will accommodate the volume
of food that is to be added as well as the
bubble action of fat.
To minimize burns, ignition of flammable
materials and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, do not extend
handles over adjacent surface burners. Al-
ways turn pan handles toward the side or
back of the appliance, not out into the room
where they are easily hit or reached by
small children.
Never let a pan boil dry as this could
damage the utensil and the appliance.
Follow the manufacturer's directions when
using oven cooking bags.

Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktop or oven usage without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature.
Follow manufacturer's instructions when
using glass.
This appliance has been tested for safe
performance using conventional cookware.
Do not use any devices or accessories that
are not specifically recommended in this
guide. Do not use eyelid covers for the
surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on
oven convection systems. The use of de-
vices or accessories that are not expressly
recommended in this manual can create
serious safety hazards, result in perfor-
mance problems, and reduce the life of the
components of the appliance.
H E
EATING LEMENTS
NEVER touch oven heating elements,
areas near elements, or interior sur-
faces of oven.
Heating elements may be hot even though
they are dark in color. Areas near elements
and interior surfaces of an oven may be-
come hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch or let
clothing or other flammable materials con-
tact heating elements, areas near elements,
or interior surfaces of oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
C S
LEANING AFETY
Turn off all controls and wait for appliance
parts to cool before touching or cleaning
them. Do not touch the burner grates or
surrounding areas until they have had suffi-
cient time to cool.
Clean appliance with caution. Use care to
avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth
is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if ap-
plied to a hot surface.
