During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend beyond the bottom of the pan. WARNING: Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can result in poor combustion that generates harmful by- products. Use caution to insure that drafts like those from forced air vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of the pot. Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may result in ignition of clothing. To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of pots and pans inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the range's cooktop. DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory. Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used on the cooktop. DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the range. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement when stirring or turning food. Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate, before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners. GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect. Clean after each use. For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light even though the electronic igniters activate. See cleaning instructions “Brass Burner Base and Cast Iron Cap” on page 35. WARNING: After a spill or boil over, turn off the burner and using caution due to possible hot surfaces, clean around the burner and burner ports. After cleaning, check for proper operation. WARNING: To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a backguard designed specifically for this range must be installed whenever the range is used. Clean the range with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the range while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer. Be sure all cooktop controls are turned off and the cooktop is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the cooktop. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode. English 5 Important Safety Instructions READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS When using the oven do not touch the broiler element, the interior surfaces of the oven or the exterior area immediately surrounding the door. Interior oven surfaces become hot enough to cause burns. The heat deflector, which deflects heat away from the cooktop and the trim on the top and sides of the oven door, will also be hot when the oven is in use. Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the potholders contact the broiler element. Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing foods. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, oven racks, temperature probe and any other utensils, and excess spillage. DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal. Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts indicated in this booklet. DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or around the self-cleaning oven(s). DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air. WARNING: DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air through the ventilation openings. The oven Flush Island vent is located at the back of the appliance. Trim Vent The vents need to be unobstructed and open to provide necessary airflow that is important for proper oven performance. DO NOT touch oven 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. Low Back Vent DO NOT position plastic or other heat- sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite. For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the range, never sit, stand, or lean on the oven door. Service should only be done by authorized technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power supply before servicing this unit. Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the oven controls are set to BROIL or BAKE modes, a...
