ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING SAFETY
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the
following precautions.
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter or an extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged power plug, power
cord, or loose power outlet.
• Do not modify the power plug, power cord, or
power outlet in any way.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground
circuit.
• Use a dedicated 120-volt, 60-Hz, 20-amp, AC, fused electrical circuit for this range.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Do not plug more than one
appliance into this circuit.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water
pipes.
• This range must be Earth grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path for the
electric current. This range is equipped with a cord having a grounding plug. The
plug must be rmly plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with the local codes and ordinances. If you are unsure whether your
electrical outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a licensed electrician.
• The range is supplied with a 3-pronged grounded plug. This cord must be plugged
into a mating, grounded 3-prong outlet that meets all local codes and ordinances.
If codes permit the use of a separate ground wire, we recommend that a qualied
electrician determine the proper path for this ground wire.
• Electrical service to the range must conform to local codes. Barring local codes,
it should meet the latest ANSI/NFPA No. 70 – Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the
Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions.
• It is the personal responsibility of the range owner to provide the correct electrical
service for this range.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. The buildup of pressure may cause the
containers to burst and result in injury.
• NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing
so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven. Do
not use the oven for storage. Paper and other ammable items stored in the
oven can ignite.
• Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when
not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not put any combustible material or items around the range.
GAS SAFETY

following precautions.
If you smell gas:
• Close the valve and do not use the range.
• Do not light a match, candle, or cigarette.
• Do not turn on any gas or electric appliances.
• Do not touch any electrical switches or plug a
power cord into an outlet.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Evacuate the room, building, or area of all
occupants.

neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.

re department.
Checking for gas leaks
• Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Do not use a ame to check for gas leaks. Use a brush to spread
a soapy water mixture around the area you are checking. If there is a gas leak,
you will see small bubbles in the soapy water mixture at the leak point.
