Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if equipped)
racks.
Always place oven racks in desired location while
oven/warmer drawer (if equipped) is cool. If rack must
be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use
potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating
elements in the oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pan
and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth.
Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire.
Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are
flaming food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the
hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
• In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed in this
Use and Care Guide.
Before self cleaning the oven, remove all
utensils or foods from the oven.
• 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.
• Do not clean door gasket
—The door gasket is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or move the gasket.
• Remove oven racks.
Oven racks color will change if left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning
cycle of the range. Move the birds to another well
ventilated room.
