In Case of Fire
Fires can occur as a result of over cooking or excessive
grease. Though a fire is unlikely, if one occurs, proceed
as follows:
Surface Fire
1.
Smother the fire with a nonflammable lid or baking
soda, or use a Class ABC or BC extinguisher. Not
water. Not salt. Not flour.
2.
As soon as it is safe to do so, turn the surface
burner controls to
OFF.
• As an added precaution, turn off gas supply and
power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.
Oven Fires
1.
If you see smoke from oven, do not open oven door.
2.
Turn oven off.
3.
As an added precaution, turn off gas supply and
power at main circuit breaker or fuse box.
4.
Turn on vent to remove smoke.
5.
Allow food or grease to burn itself out in oven.
6.
If smoke and fire persist, call fire department.
7.
If there is any damage to components, call repair
service before using range.
Precautions
• Do not cook food directly on rangetop surface, always
use cookware.
• Do not mix household cleaning products. Chemical
mixtures may interact with objectionable or even
hazardous results.
• Oven door contains a glass window. While this glass is
built to be sturdy and resistant, it is glass and should
be treated with care.
• Do not lift or move range by grasping oven door. This
can result in window glass breaking or shattering.
• Do not put plastic items on warm cooking areas. They
may stick and melt.
• Do not slide rough metal objects across rangetop
surface. Scratching or metal marking can result.
• Do not use damp sponge or dishcloth to clean rangetop
when range is hot. Steam from sponge or dishcloth can
burn.
• Do not leave fat heating unless you remain nearby. Fat
can ignite if overheated by spilling onto hot surfaces.
• Do not allow pots to boil dry as this can cause damage
to cooking surface and pan.
• Do not use rangetop surface as a cutting board.
Delayed Ignition
Surface Burners
Burner should ignite within 4 seconds. If burner does not
ignite within 4 seconds turn control knob to
OFF position
and follow directions in “Placing Grates and Burner Caps”
and “Before Calling for Service” section. Try burner again.
If burner still does not ignite in 4 seconds, contact an
authorized servicer.
Bake Burner Flame
Allow no more than 40–60 seconds before burner ignites
and heat is felt. To check for heat, open oven door to first
stop and place hand over oven door. If heat is not felt,
press OVEN CANCEL on oven control. If burner
repeatedly fails to ignite, contact an authorized servicer.
Broiler Flame
Allow no more than 40–60 seconds before burner ignites
and flame is seen. If burner does not ignite press OVEN
CANCEL on oven control. If burner repeatedly fails to
ignite within 40–60 seconds contact an authorized
servicer.
Radiant screen style broiler flame should appear hazy or
fuzzy. Haze should be no more than
3
/
8
inch thick. The
radiant screen should begin to glow red or orange within
1–2 minutes.
