Important Safety Instructions
Gas Appliance Safety
Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off 
valve is located.
If a burner goes out and gas escapes, open windows 
and doors. Wait until gas dissipates before using the 
appliance.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper 
job of checking for leaks. If the connections are not 
perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and, 
therefore, a faint smell. Finding a gas leak is not a "do-
it-yourself" procedure. Some leaks can only be found 
with the burner control in the ON position and this must 
be done by a qualified service technician. See “WHAT 
TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 2.
During a power failure, only the cooktop burners can 
be lit manually.
To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block 
appliance air vents.
For proper lighting and performance of burners, keep 
igniters clean and dry.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
: The California 
Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act 
requires the Governor of California to publish a list of 
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth 
defects or other reproductive harm, and requires 
businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to 
such substances.
The burning of gas cooking fuel can generate some by-
products which are on the list. To minimize exposure to 
these substances, always operate this unit according to 
the instructions contained in this booklet and provide 
good ventilation. 
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep 
pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where 
kitchen fumes could reach them. Kitchen fumes such 
as overheating margarines and cooking oils may be 
harmful.
Fire Safety
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the 
cooktop.
Set the burner control so that the flame does not 
extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
Use this appliance only for its intended use as 
described in this manual. For example, never use the 
appliance for warming or heating the room. Never use 
the appliance for storage.
WARNING
When properly cared for, your new appliance has 
been designed to be safe and reliable. Read all 
instructions carefully before use. These precautions 
will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire and 
injury to persons. When using kitchen appliances, 
basic safety precautions must be followed, including 
those in the following pages.
