lTurn pan handles inward, but not over other surface burners. This will help reduce the chance of burns, igniting of flammable materials, and spills due to bumping of the pan.

lDo not use decorative covers or trivets over the surface burners.

When usinn the oven

lAlways position the oven rack(s) in desired location while oven is cool.

lUse care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

Grease

lGrease is flammable. Do not allow grease to collect around cooktop or in vents. Wipe spillovers immediately.

I

lDo not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan by covering with a well-fiied lid, cookie sheet or fiat tray. Flaming grease outside of pan can be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Care and cleaninn

lSmall amounts of formaldehyde and carbon monoxide are given off in the Self-Cleaning cycle from fiberglass insulation and food decomposition. Significant exposure to these substances can cause cancer or reproductive harm. Exposure can be minimized by venting with a hood or open window and wiping out excess food spills prior to self-cleaning.

m.

lDo not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

lBefore self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks and other utensils. Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts unless you are instructed to do so in this Use and Care Guide.

lDo not clean door heat seal. It is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the seal. Clean only parts recommended in this Use and Care Guide.

lDo not repair or replace any part of the range unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

lDisconnect the electrical supply and the gas supply at the shutoff valve near the range before servicing the range.
