1

Read all instructions before using this appliance. Save 

these instructions for future reference.
The installation must conform with local or, in the 

absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, 

ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
Have your appliance properly installed and grounded by 

a qualified technician in accordance with the National 

Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 – latest edition, and 

local code requirements. In Canada, electrical grounding 

must be in accordance with the current CSA C22.1 

Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and/or local codes.
Install only as described in the installation section of this 

book.
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and 

an authorized repair service. 
The anti-tip device supplied with this range MUST be 

installed when the appliance is installed. This will reduce 

risk of tipping of the appliance from abnormal usage or 

by excessive loading of the oven door.
To avoid personal injury do not sit, stand or lean on the 

oven doors.
Leaning, sitting or stepping on the doors of this range 

can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to 

the range. Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on 

any part of the range.
Do not operate the appliance if it is damaged. If you 

receive a damaged product contact your dealer/installer 

immediately.
Ensure your installer shows you where and how to 

disconnect the power to the range at the circuit breaker 

or fuse box. And how to turn off the gas supply in case of 

an emergency

In Case of Fire

n



DO NOT use water on grease fires. Never pick up a 

flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming 

pan on a cooktop burner by covering the pan 

completely with a well fitting lid or baking tray. If 

available use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-

type fire extinguisher.

If fire is in an oven pan, smother by closing oven door. Open 

doors and windows or, if a hood is installed, turn it on to 

remove smoke and odor.

To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage

Before using the range make sure all the packing materials 

have been removed.
Always keep the area around the range free from combustible 

materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
If the range is installed near a window, proper precautions 

should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over the 

burners.

n



NEVER leave any items on the range cooktop. The 

hot air from an oven vent may ignite flammable 

items and may increase pressure in closed 

containers, which may cause them to burst. Many 

aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when 

exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. 

Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.

Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep 

plastic items away from parts of the range that may become 

warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as 

they may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a 

lighted burner.
Storage should not be installed directly above a range. If 

anything is stored above the range, it should be limited to 

infrequently used items, which can be safely stored in an area 

subjected to heat from a range. Temperatures may be unsafe 

for some items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol 

sprays.
Make sure all packaging materials have been removed.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the 

range. Never allow children to play with packaging material.

n



Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or 

warm the room. Doing so may result in overheating 

of the oven and control knobs.

n



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 airflow through 

the oven. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat 

causing a fire hazard.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless 

specifically recommended in this User Manual.
All other servicing should be done only by a qualified 

technician; this may reduce the risk of personal injury and 

damage to the range.
Never modify or alter the construction of a range by 

removing leveling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/

screws, or any other part of the product.

n



DO NOT Leave Children Alone or Unattended!

Babies, toddlers and young children should not be allowed 

near the range at any time. They should never be allowed to 

sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
Do not allow children to climb or play around the range. The 

weight of a child on an open door may cause the range to tip, 

resulting in serious burns or other injury.
Teach them not to play with controls or any other part of the 

range.
Never store items of interest to children in the cabinets above 

a range or on the backguard of a range; children climbing on 

the range to reach them could be seriously injured.

n



DO NOT use the oven for storage.
