Important Safety Instructions
6
• The appliance must be electrically
grounded in accordance with
local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, NFPA 70 latest
edition or, in Canada, the
Canadian Electric Code, CSA
C22.1-02.
• Before installing the range in an
area covered with linoleum or
any other synthetic floor covering,
make sure the floor covering can
withstand heat at least 90°F
above room temperature without
shrinking, warping or discoloring.
Do not install the range over
carpeting unless you place an
insulating pad or sheet of ¼"
(10,16cm) thick plywood
between the range and
carpeting.
• Be sure your range is installed
and grounded properly by a
qualified installer or service
technician.
• Make sure the wall coverings
around the range can withstand
the heat generated by the range.
• Do not store items of interest to
children in the cabinets above the
range. Children could be
seriously burned if they climb on
the range to reach items.
• To eliminate the need to reach
over the surface burners, cabinet
storage space above the burners
should be avoided.
• Do not use the oven as a storage
space. This creates a potentially
hazardous situation.
WARNING
Never leave children alone or
unattended in the area where an
appliance is in use. As children grow,
teach them the proper, safe use of all
appliances. Never leave the oven door
open when the range is unattended.
CAUTION
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the doors
or drawers of this range can result in
serious injuries and can also cause
damage to the range.
