SELF-CLEANING OVEN (on some models)

Safety Instructions

■Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

■Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.

■Do not use oven cleaners on self-clean models. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating 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.

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

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

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

■Take the shelves out of the oven before you begin the self-clean cycle or they may discolor.

Operating Instructions

Care

SURFACE UNITS–ALL MODELS

Use proper pan size–select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.

and Cleaning

■Never leave the surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

■Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

■To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.

■Always turn the surface units off before removing cookware.

■Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

■Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium high heat settings.

■Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

■Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

■If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.

■Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

■Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
