Safety

CAUTION:

All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.

 

 

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:

 

 

 

The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Gov-

 

 

 

ernor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to

 

 

 

cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires busi-

 

 

 

nesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

 

 

 

1) The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-

 

 

 

cleaning can generate small amounts of Carbon Monoxide.

 

 

 

2) The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small

 

 

 

amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles.

 

 

 

3) California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon

 

 

 

Monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity.

 

 

 

4) Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

 

 

 

a) Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

 

 

 

b) Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self

 

 

 

cleaning the oven.

 

 

 

c) Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

 

 

 

 

 

Cleaning Safety

• Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce nox-

 

 

ious fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause

 

 

burns from steam.

 

• When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door

 

 

does not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.

 

• Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep pet birds out of the

 

 

kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self

 

 

clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes

 

 

such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.

 

• Keep oven free from grease build up.

Cookware Safety

• Do not place food directly on oven bottom.

 

• Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.

 

• Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent

 

 

spills and movement of the pan.

 

• Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion

 

 

of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition

 

 

of clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the

 

 

surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface

 

 

units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or

 

 

burner will also improve efficiency.

 

• Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adja-

 

 

cent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk

 

 

of fires, spills and burns.

 

• Adjust burner flame size so that it does not extend beyond the edge of the

 

 

cookware. Proper relationship of cookware to burner flame reduces safety

 

 

risks.
