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.

Use this appliance only %r its intended purpose as described m tim )wner s
Manual. Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with the prox4ded installation
instructions.
Before perfo_ning any service, disconnect the rang,e power supply at the household
disu-ibufion panel by removing the fl_se or switching off the circuit breaken
Hme the installer show yon the location of the circuit breaker or fi_se. Mark it for easy
reference.
Do not leme children alone----_'hildren should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They
should nexer be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. Haxe the installer show you the location of the range gas shut-offxahe and how to
shut it off if necessa U. Hax.e your rang.e installed and properly

Instructions. Any adjusunent and service should be perforated only by qualified gas
rang.e installers or se_wice mchnicians. Locate the range out of kitchen tral_c pafl_
and out of drafty locations to prexent poor air circulation.
Be snre all packaging materials are removed from the rang.e before operaung
it to pre\.ent fire or smoke damag.e should the packag_ing material ignite.

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 theoven.
Never entirely cover a rack with
ahmfinum fifil. This Mll dismd) tile heat
circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of fl)il may be used to
catch a spillover by plating it on a lower rock several inches below tile food.

Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat
yourself. Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20_40 degrees.
NOTE"This adjustment will only affect baking androasting temperatures; # will not affect broiling, convection or self-cleaning temperatures. Theadjustment will be retained in memory after apower failure.

Thetype ofmargarine will affect bakingperformancet.
Most recipes for baking have been developed us&g high-fat products such as butter ormargarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with Iow-fat spreads. Thelower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards reqtlire prodtlctS labeled "margarii_e" to coi_tain at least 80% tilt by weight, ixm_lht spreads, on tile other hand, contain less tilt and inore watei: The high inoisture content at these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old tin:afire redpes, use inalgafii_e, butter or sock spreads coi_tailfing at least
70% vegetable oil.
