COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety Instructions

Operating Instructions

■Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored over the range. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surface units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.

■Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

■Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range.

■Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi- purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer can be smothered completely by closing the oven door or drawer and turning the oven off, or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■Be sure all packaging materials are removed from the range before operating it to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packaging material ignite.

■After prolonged use of a range, high floor temperatures may result and many floor coverings will not withstand this kind of use. Never install the range over vinyl tile or linoleum that cannot withstand such type of use. Never install it directly over interior kitchen carpeting.

■Do not touch the surface units, the heating elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact, the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

■Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening, crevices around the oven door and metal trim parts above the door.

■REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven may be hot when the door is opened.

■Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■Keep the hood and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

■Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range under the lower oven drawer.

■Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part of the range.

■Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance from your range.

■Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance from your range.

■Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or drapes a safe distance from your range.
