CARBON MONOXIDE poisoning.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials
such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause CARBON MONOXIDE poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a
dry chemical or
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT allow children
to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on an open oven door may cause the range to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury.
Storage in or on appliance m flammable materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower oven. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or
near the range.
DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN ALONE children should nat be left alone or unattended in the
area where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance, including the storage drawer, lower broiler drawer, warmer drawer or lower double oven.
Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above a range or on the backguard of the range. Children climbing on the range to reach items
could be seriously injured.
Protective Liners _ DO NOT use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.
Use care when opening oven door, warmer drawer or lower oven door _ Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or
ignite.
Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
