IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
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 birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very sma# amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window orusing a ventilation
fan or hood.

Aluminum Foil
You can use ahmfinum hill to line tile
broiler pan and broiler grid. Howexe_;
you must mold tile fifil tightly to tile grid
and cut slits in it just like tile grid.
Without the slits, the toil will prevent tilt
and meat juices ti'om draining into the
broiler pan. The juices could become
hot enough to catch on fire. If wm
do not cut the slits, you are essentially
flTing, not broiling.
Oven Moisture
Baking results Mll be better if baking
pans are centered in tile oven as nluch
as possible. If baking with more than one
pan, place the pans so each has at least 1"
to 11/-,"of air space around it.
Donotusealuminumfoil onthebottomof

Never entirely cover a rack with
ahmfinum fifil. This Mll dismd) tile heat
