IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Read and follow all instructions when using the range to prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or damage. This guide does not cover all possible conditions that may occur. Always contact your service agent or manufacturer about problems that you do not understand. Download this owner's manual at: http://www.lg.com This is the safety alert symbol.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the imperfect combustion of natural or LP gas.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Warning •• Gas leaks may occur in the system and result in a serious hazard. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the gas detector manufacturer’s instructions. •• Do not use commercial oven cleaners on the oven finish or around any part of the oven. They will damage the finish. •• To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance after each use.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS •• Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the appliance. •• Never use the appliance door as a step stool or seat, as this may result in possible tipping of the appliance and serious injuries. •• This product should not be installed below ventilation type hood systems that direct air in a downward direction. Doing so may cause ignition and combustion problems with the gas burners resulting in personal injury and may affect the cooking performance of the unit.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS •• To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls for all burners are in the Off position and all grates are cool before attempting to remove them. •• If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and call a qualified service technician. Never use an open flame to locate a leak. •• Always turn the knobs to the Off position before removing cookware. •• Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can cause damage and improper operation of the range.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS OVEN When opening the door of a hot oven, stand away from the range. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes. Warning •• Never block any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard. •• Do not heat food in closed containers.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 11 •• Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy. Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the same cooking temperature together in one oven. •• For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the guides on page 31 for proper rack and pan placements. •• Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food being cooked to save energy when heating. Heating ½ quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot than in a 1-quart pot.
