COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY. . .
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING!
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the range.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface units
or heating elements and may cause severe
burns.
Use only dry pot holders-moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot
surface units or heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth.
For your safety never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
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.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the door and turning
the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Do not touch the surface units, 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, the
surface units, areas nearby
the
surface units
or any interior area of
the
oven; allow
sufficient
time
for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent
opening,
surfaces near the opening, crevices around
the oven door and metal trim parts above
the door.
REMEMBER:
The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when
the
door is opened.
Do not store or use combustible
materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
Keep the hood and grease filters clean
to
maintain
good venting and to avoid
grease fires.
Never block
the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven
door, and at the
bo
tt
om
of the range under
the storage drawer.
