Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended es-
pecially when using high heat. An unattended
boilover could cause smoking and a greasy
spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size
surface elements. Select pans with flat bot-
toms large enough to cover element. Fitting
pan size to element will improve cooking ef-
ficiency.
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of
the element will be exposed to direct contact
and could ignite clothing or potholder.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed uten-
sils are suitable for cooktop or oven service
without breaking due to the sudden change
in temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer's
instructions when using glass.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop,
not out into the room or over another surface
element. This reduces the risk of burns, igni-
tion of flammable materials, or spillage if pan
is accidently bumped or reached by small
children.
Coil Elements
(select models)
To prevent damage to removable heating el-
ements, do not immerse, soak or clean in a
dishwasher or self-clean oven. A damaged
element could short resulting in a fire or shock
hazard.
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence
of these bowls during cooking could damage
wiring.
Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to
line surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms,
except as suggested in the manual. Improper
installation of these liners may result in a risk
of electric shock or fire.
Glass-Ceramic Cooktop
(select models)
NEVER cook on broken cooktop. If 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. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface. If a wet sponge, cloth, or paper
towel is used on a hot cooking area, be care-
ful to avoid steam burn.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving grease
pan or disposing of hot grease. Allow grease
to cool before attempting to move pan.
Oven
Use care when opening door. Let hot air or
steam escape before removing or replacing
food.
For proper oven operation and performance,
do not block or obstruct oven vent duct. When
oven is in use, the area near the vent may
become hot enough to cause burns.
Always place oven racks in desired locations
while oven is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot, do not let potholder con-
tact hot element in oven.
Self-Cleaning Oven
Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do not
clean door gasket. The gasket is essential
for a good seal. Do not rub, damage, or move
the gasket.
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating
of any kind should be used in or around any
part of the oven.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler
pan, oven racks and other utensils to pre-
vent excessive smoking, discoloration of the
oven racks or possible damage to utensils.
Wipe up excessive spillovers, especially
greasy spills, before the clean cycle to pre-
vent smoking, flare-ups or flaming.
It is normal for the cooktop to become hot
during a clean cycle. Therefore, avoid touch-
ing the cooktop, door, window or oven vent
during a clean cycle.
Heating Elements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating ele-
ments, areas near elements, or interior sur-
faces of oven.
Heating elements may be hot even though they
are dark in color. Areas near surface elements
and interior surfaces of an oven may become
hot enough to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch or let clothing or other flam-
mable materials contact heating elements, ar-
eas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven
until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent, and sur-
faces near the vent opening, oven door, areas
around the door and oven window.
Child Safety
CAUTION:
NEVER store items of interest to children in
cabinets above an appliance or on
backguard of a range. Children climbing on
appliance, door or drawer to reach items
could damage the appliance or be burned
or seriously injured.
NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised
in area where appliance is in use or is still hot.
NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any
part of the appliance as they could be injured
or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance and
utensils in or on it can be hot. Let hot utensils
cool in a safe place, out of reach of small chil-
dren. Children should be taught that an appli-
ance is not a toy. Children should not be al-
lowed to play with controls or other parts of
the unit.
Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to pre-
vent grease or other flammable materials from
accumulating on hood or filter and to avoid
grease fires.
Turn the fan on when flambéing foods (such
as Cherries Jubilee) under the hood.
