• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging gar-
ments while using the appliance. Be careful
when reaching for items stored over the
range. Flammable material could be ig-
nited if brought in contact with hot surface
units or heating elements and may cause
severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders-moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch
hot surface units or heating elements. Do
not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• For your safety never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flam-
mable materials accumulate in or near the
range.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by
covering the pan completely with a well fit-
ting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a mul-
tipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY...
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160° F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures
usually protects against foodborne illness.
WARNING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or, if
available, by using a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered com-
pletely by closing the door and turning the
oven off or by using a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam type fire extinguisher.
• Do not touch the surface units, the heating
elements or the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn
even though they are dark in color. During
and after use, do not touch or let clothing
or other flammable materials contact the
surface units, areas nearby the surface units
or any interior area of the oven; allow suffi-
cient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cook-
top, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent
opening, surfaces near the opening, crev-
ices around the oven door and metal trim
parts above the door.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
• Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other ap-
pliance.
• Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid
grease fires.
• Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to oper-
ate properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at the top and bottom of the
oven door, and at the bottom of the range
under the storage drawer.
