Warnings

• It is normal for the rangetop cooking surface of the range to
become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the
rangetop cooking surface during a clean cycle should be avoided.
Important Safety Notice and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986
(Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposures to such substances. Users of this appliance are hereby warned
that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some
low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon
monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly
venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in
the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
Important notice regarding pet birds:
NEVER
keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from
the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system.
Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or
fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat,
margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
About Your Appliance
• For proper oven performance and operation,
DO NOT
block or
obstruct the oven vent duct located on the right side of the air grille.
• Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several
minutes after oven is turned off. When the oven is in use, the vent
and surrounding area become hot enough to cause burns. After
oven is turned off,
DO NOT
touch the oven vent or surrounding
areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
• Other potentially hot surfaces include rangetop, areas facing the
rangetop, oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door,
areas around the oven door and oven window.
• The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on
them) can result in potential hazards and/or injuries.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
