9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING—VENTILATING HOODS
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently – Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
• This appliance should not be installed with a
ventilation system that directs air in a downward
direction toward the appliance. This type of
ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the appliance resulting in personal
injury, property damage, or unintended operation.
Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not
have any restriction.
An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which
operates by blowing a downward airflow onto a
range, shall not be used in conjunction with a gas
range unless the hood and range have been designed
and tested in accordance with the Standard for
Domestic Gas Ranges, ANSI Z21.1 • CSA 1.1, and
listed by an independent testing laboratory for
combination use.
• When flambéing foods under the hood, turn the fan
on.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven
and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil
linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

no electrical power to operate the electronic
igniters on the burners, turn OFF the gas
control knob and wait 5 minutes for the gas to
dissipate before lighting the burner manually.

WARNING—AIR FLOW
• Do not block or obstruct the flow of air
through the ventilation openings. The
vent is located at the back of the
appliance. The vent needs to be
unobstructed and open to provide
necessary airflow that is important for
proper performance.
• Do not touch the vent area while the appliance is on
and for several minutes after the appliance is off.
Some parts of the vent and surrounding areas become
hot enough to cause burns. Allow appliance sufficient
time to cool before touching or cleaning vent areas.
• Do not position plastic or other heat-sensitive items
on or near the vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• To provide proper ventilation of the range do not
remove range feet.
Do not allow meat probes or other utensils to come into
contact with the heating elements.
Do not use the grill plate accessory for cooking
excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-
ups.
When cooking fatty or oily foods on burners, the grill, or
the griddle, adjacent gas burners can ignite airborne
fumes. Use caution to avoid burns.
IMPORTANT: There is a possibility to discolor the back
wall under certain cooking conditions.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance.
It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in
injury.
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR
UNITS – Surface units may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot
enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact
surface units or areas near units until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cooktop and surfaces facing the cooktop.
SMART-ENABLED APPLIANCES—REMOTE OPERATION
This appliance may be configurable to allow remote
operation at any time. Do not store any flammable
materials or temperature sensitive items inside, on top or
near surface units of the appliance.
