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.

OVEN

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.

Safety Instructions Operating

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

■Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■Place the oven shelves 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. The lowest position is not designed to slide.

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

■Never use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Improper use of foil could start a fire and result in high carbon monoxide.

■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 manufacturer’s 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 gas ovens.

■Always remove the broiler pan from range as soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the pan can catch fire if oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.

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

■Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to reduce the possibility of grease fires.

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

■For safety and proper cooking performance, always bake and broil with the oven door closed.
