The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other raproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Foodsplatter or cleaning solution
mav penetrate a broken control panel or cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately should },ourglass control panel or cooktop become broken.
Do trot store flammable matelials in an
oxen or near file cooktop.
CAUTION: Items of irrterest to
childlen should not be stored in cabinets
aboxe a range or on the back of a rang_--
children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injm_ed.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
g_mnents while using the appliance. Be
careflfl when xeaching fox items stored

be ignited if brougtr t in corrtact with hot
surface units or beating elements and may
cause se\_re bnrns.
Use only dU pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfimes m W result in
burns fiom steam. Do not let pot holders
touch hot surfiace units or heating
elements. Do not use a towel or oflxer
bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Turn the corrtrols
off. Smother a flaming pan on a sni/_tce
unit by cove_ing the pan completely with
a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or fiat tray.
Use a mnlu-pnrpose dU chemical or
foam-type fire exfinguishen
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by coveting it with baking soda ox, if
available, by using a multi-puq)ose dU

RADIANTSURFACEUNITS
Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiency.
Never leaxe the surt_ace units unattended
at high heat setting:s. Boiloxers cause
smoking arrd gIeasy spillox_rs that may
catch on fire.
Only certain wpes of gtass, glassA'eramic,

suitable for cooktop service; others may
break because of tile sudden chang> ira

Kee I) an eye on foods being fried at high
or medium high heat setting:s.
Foods for flTing should be as &T as
possible. Frost on fiozen foods or moisun_e

Safe canning requires that harmful
microorganisms are destroyed and that

canning foods in a water-bath canner,
a gentle but steady boil mustbe

After you have adjusted the controls,
it is very important to make sure the

Ym can use ahmfinum fifil to line tile

_4]thout tile slits, tile toil will prevent tht

hot enough to catch on fire. If you
do not cut tile slits, you are essentially

Baking results Mll be better if baking

1 to 1½" of air space aro/md it.
Donot usealuminum foil on thebottom of

Never entirely cover a rack with

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
rack several inches below the toed.
