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.

Safety Instructions Operating

Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in the oven can ignite.

Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.

Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool.

Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the oven except as described in this manual. Misuse could result in a fire hazard or damage to the range.

When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the package directions.

Do not use your oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch fire.

Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in ovens.

When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent excessive flare-ups.

After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of the range and clean it. Leftover grease in the broiler pan can catch fire next time you use the pan.

If you should have a grease fire in the broiler pan, turn the oven off and keep the oven door closed to contain fire until it burns out.

Keep the range clean and free of accumulations of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Manual.

Instructions Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting

SELF-CLEANING OVEN

Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before self-cleaning operation.

Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, grid and other cookware.

Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Be careful not to rub, damage or move it.

If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

Listen for a fan—a fan noise should be heard sometime during the cleaning cycle. If not, call for service before self-cleaning again.
