Important Safety Instructions

Important safety notice

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELF-

CLEANING OVENS

•Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Manual. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks, broil pan, broil pan insert and any cookware, cooking utensils or foods from the oven.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR

COOl(TOP

Use Proper Flame Size m Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

•Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the burner off before removing the pan.

•Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

•Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners m To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.

•Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings _ Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

•Glazed cooking utensils _ Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the

manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use.

•When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

• Do 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.

•Do Not Clean Door Gasket -- The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

•The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR RANGE

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range is COOL. The range may be hot and can cause burns.

•Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area around each surface burner. Do not allow grease to accumulate.

•Kitchen cleaners and aerosols _ Always follow the manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing damage and injury.

•Clean ventilating hoods frequently _ Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning hoods.
