flammable materials contact module elements,
areas nearby module elements or any interior area
of the oven; allow

When cooking pork,
follow the directions exactly
and always cook the meat to an internal temperature
of at least
170°F.
This assures that, in the remote
possibility that trichina may be present
in
the meat,
it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

Oven

●
Stand away from the range when opening the
oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
●
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
●
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
●
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
c
Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while
the oven is cool. If the shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let potholders contact
the heating units in the oven.
●
Pulling out the shelf to the
shelf
stop 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 use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
●
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in an oven can ignite.
●
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils,
or food in the oven when not in use.

After broiling,
always take the broiler pan out of
the range and clean it. Leftover grease in the broiler
pan can catch fire the next time you use the pan.
●
Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings on or
near your range.

Self-Cleaning Oven

●
Do not clean the oven door gasket.
The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
● 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.
Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside
of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used
●
Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Book.
●
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn off
and disconnect power supply.
Have serviced by
a qualified technician.
●
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan and other cookware. Do not
self-
clean the modules in the oven.
●
Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the Self-Clean operation.

Surface Cooking Modules

●
Use proper pan size-This
appliance has modules
each equipped with a 6 inch and an
8
inch heating
element. Select cookware having flat bottoms large
enough to cover the selected heating element. The
use of undersized cookware
will
expose a portion of
the heating element to direct contact and may result
in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
cookware to burner will also improve efficiency. —
●
Never leave the kitchen while using the grill.
●
NEVER USE WATER ON A GREASE FIRE.
