(0,6 cm) thick plywood between the range and
carpeting.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
air at
the oven vent nor around the base or beneath
the lower front panel of the range. Avoid touching
the vent openings or nearby surfaces as they
may become hot while the oven is in operation.
This range requires fresh air for proper burner
combustion.
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.
