• Turn pan handles inward, but not over other
surface burners. This wili heip reduce the
chance of burns, igniting of fiammable
materials, and spills due to bumping of
the pan.
• Do not use decorative covers or trivets over
the surface burners.
When using the oven____________
• Always position the oven rack(s) in desired
location while oven is cool.
• Use care when opening oven door. Let hot
air or steam escape before removing or
replacing food.
Grease________________________
• Grease is flammable. Do not allow grease to
collect around cooktop or in vents. Wipe
spillovers immediately.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan by
covering with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet or
flat tray. Flaming grease outside of pan can
be extinguished with baking soda or, if
available, a multipurpose dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
Care and cleaning
• Small amounts of formaldehyde and carbon
monoxide are given off in the Self-Cleaning
cycle from fiberglass insulation and food
decomposition. Significant exposure to
these substances can cause cancer or
reproductive harm. Exposure can be
minimized by venting with a hood or open
window and wiping out excess food spills
prior to self-cleaning.
• Do not 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.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove
broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks and
other utensils. Do not use your oven to
clean miscellaneous parts unless you are
instructed to do so in this Use and Care
Guide.
• Do not clean door heat seal. It is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or move the seal. Clean only
parts recommended in this Use and Care
Guide.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the
range unless specifically recommended in
this manual. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
• Disconnect the electrical supply and the gas
supply at the shutoff valve near the range
before servicing the range.
