■
Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
■
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove any
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware, probe
and any aluminum foil.
■
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
■
Nickel oven shelves (on some models) should
be removed from the oven before beginning
the self-clean cycle.
■
Gray porcelain-coated oven shelves (on some
models) may be cleaned in the oven during
the self-clean cycle.
■
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
■
Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
■
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn
the oven off and disconnect the power supply.
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
■
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind should
be used in or around any part of the oven.
Residue from oven cleaners will damage the
inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle
is used.
■
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
■
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
■
Place the oven shelves in the desired position
while the oven is cool.
■
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest
position is not designed to slide.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
■
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual.
Misuse could result in a fire hazard or damage
to the range.
■
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
■
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
■
Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
■
Always remove any broiler pan from range as
soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
■
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups.
■
Make sure any broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
■
If you should have a grease fire in a broiler pan,
press the
CLEAR/OFF
pad, and keep the oven
door closed to contain fire until it burns out.
■
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.
■
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
UPPER OVEN
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:
NEVER
cover any
slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom
or cover an entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
