14. Do not touch 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 any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance
may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the burners, grates, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening, crevices around the oven door, metal trim parts above the door, any back guard, or
high shelf surface.
15. Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing any
injury.

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cook food thoroughly to help protect against foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations
can be found at www.IsItDoneYet.gov and www.fsis.usda.gov. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures
and check several locations.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the oven door, drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range or
tip it over causing severe injury or death.
Keep the ventilator hood and grease filter clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires. Turn the
ventilator OFF in case of a fire or when intentionally "flaming" liquor or other spirits on the cooktop. The blower if in
operation, could spread the flames.
WARNING
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM THE RANGE
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders,
linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact
hot surfaces causing severe burns.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range.
Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEP TO PREVENT
INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING.
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-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out.
Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from
the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.
WARNING
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never leave the surface burners unattended at medium or high heat settings. Foods, especially oily foods, may
ignite resulting in fire that could spread to surrounding cabinets.
