described in this Use and Care Guide.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician 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 referred to a qualified technician,
Have the installer show you the location of the

- 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
thought 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.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas
facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near
the opening, crevices around the oven door and metal
trim parts above the door.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven may be
hot when the door is opened.

• Do not leave children alone--_hitdren should not be
left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance
is in use° They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on
the door, storage drawer, or cooktop. They could
damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe
personal injury°
• Do not store flammable

materials in an oven or near

a cooktop.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN
SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE
THE RANGE OR ON THE BACKSPLASH OF A
RANGE--CHILDREN
CLIMBING ON THE RANGE
TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

PROTECTING AGAINST
FOODBORNE ILLNESS

• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for
items stored over the range. Flammable material
could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surface
units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.

• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly-meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 160°1=.and poultry to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°1=.Cooking
to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.

OVEN SAFETY

BASIC SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS

° Stand away from the range when opening the oven
door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

• Use only dry pot holders--moist or damp pot holders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let pot holders hot touch surface units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth°

heating elements.

• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.

• Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a
precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces
of the door or oven walls_

• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off° Smother a flaming
pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a
multi-purpose dry' chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside the pan can be put out by
covering it with baking soda or, if availabfe, by using a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher
Flame in the oven can be smothered completely by

SURFACE UNITS
Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating
element. The use of undersized cookware wil! expose a
portion of the surface lmit to direct contact and may
result in the ignition of clothing, Proper relationship of
cookware to surface unit size will also

turn the fan on_
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point,
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium
high heat settings.

Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost
on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause

• Never leave the surface units unattended at

hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan,

high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spitlovers that may catch on fire.
° Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.

Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooktop, be careful to avoid
steam bums°

• If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying,
stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly_

To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric shock,
always be certain that the controls for all surface units
are at the OFF position and all coils are cool before
attempting to lift or remove a uniL

• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

Do not immerse or soak the removable surface

- Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable
for cooktop service; others may break because of the
sudden change in temperature°
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a
container should be turned toward the center of the
range without extending over nearby surface units,

units. Do not put them in a dishwasher.
Be sure the drip pans and the vent duct are not
covered and are in place. Their absence during

Before

Preheating

you begin...

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it, To preheat, set
the oven at the correct temperature, Preheating is
necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and bread&

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
desired position before you turn the oven on.
The shelves have stop-locks,
so that when placed correctly
on the supports, they will stop
before coming completely out,
and will not tilto

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes,
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered
in the oven as much as possible, Pans should not touch
each other or the walls of the oven, If you need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly
above the other, and leave approximately 1Y2 from the
front of the pan to the front of the shelf.

When placing and removing
cookware, puff the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf
support.
To remove a shelf, pull it
toward you, tilt the front end
up and pull it out_
To replace, place the end of
the shelf (stop-locks) on the
support, tilt up the front and
push the shelf in,

Aluminum

Foil

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil This will
disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking_

°

You can use aluminum foil to line
the broiler pan and broiter gri&
However, you must mold the foil
tightly to the grid and cut slits in it
just like the grid.
