Installer: Inform the consumer of the location of the gas shut-off valve.
•
After using your range for an extended period of time high floor temperatures may
result. Many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
•
Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of
use. Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting.
SURFACE BURNERS
WARNING
•
Even if the top burner flame goes out, gas is still flowing to the burner until the knob is
turned to the Off position. If you smell gas, immediately open a window and ventilate
the area for five minutes prior to using the burner. Do not leave the burners on
unattended.
•
Use proper pan size. Do not use pans that are unstable or that can be easily tipped.
Select cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid
spillovers, make sure the cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This
will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy
spattering or spillovers left on the range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be
easily grasped and remain cool.
