IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforce-

ment 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 busi-

nesses to warn customers of potential exposure to

such substances.

Never block free airflow through the oven vent.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat

fryer. Wait until the fat has cooled.
Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool.

If racks must be handled when hot, do not let potholder
contact hot heating element in oven.

Choose pots and pans with flat bottoms, large enough
to cover the entire cooktop element. This will cut down
the risk of setting potholders or clothing on fire with an

uncovered element and waste less energy.
Only some kinds of glass or ceramic pans can be used

for cooktop cooking. Be sure that the pan you use will

not break when heated on the cooktop elements.
Never try to clean utensils, cookware or removable

parts of your range inthe oven during a self.clean cycle.
Never rub, move, or damage the door gasket on self-

cleaning oven. The gasket is essential for a good seal.
Only clean the gasket by soaking it with hydrogen

peroxide, as described in the self-clean section of this
manual.

Hfthe self-c_ean_ng mode mallfmtct_ens_ turn off and

disconnect the power supply. Have serviced by a
qualified technician.

Never try to repair or replace any part of the range
unless instructions are given in this book. All other

work should be done by a skilled technician.

Do Net 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.

Neverput removable heating elements in water. Do not
put them in a dishwasher° Do not put them in the self-
clean cycle of your oven.

Never use the cooktop without reflector pans or drip
bowls In place. If these pans or bowls are not there

during cooking, wiring or other range parts may be
damaged.
Never clean cooktop surface when it is hot. Some

cleaners produce noxious fumes and wet cloths could
cause steam burns if used on a hot surface.

Do net try to move the pan.

1. Close oven door and turn controls off.

spread the ][lames.

INIHI IIII,

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.
