IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
WArnInG
•
Do not use the oven for storage. Items stored in the oven can catch on fire.
•
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
•
Insert the oven racks in the desired position while the oven is cool.
•
To prevent burns when removing food, slide racks out until the stop engages, then
remove food items. This may also protect you from getting burnt by touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
•
When placing or removing a griddle, always wear oven mitts.
•
When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
•
Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
•
Always remove the broiler pan from the range after you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if the oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.
•
If meat is too close to the flame while broiling, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to
prevent excessive flare-ups.
•
Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to minimize the possibility of grease fires.
•
If you have a grease fire in the broiler pan, turn the oven mode knob to the
Off
position
and keep the oven door closed to contain the fire until it burns out.
•
For safety and better cooking performance, always bake and broil with the oven door
closed. Open door baking or broiling can cause damage to the knobs or valves.
Do not leave the oven door open during cooking or while the oven is cooling down.
EnErGY SAVInG TIPS
•
Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy. Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the
same cooking temperature together in one oven.
•
For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the guides on page 32 for proper rack
and pan placements.
•
Match the size of the cookware to the amount of food being cooked to save energy when
heating. Heating ½ quart of water requires more energy in a 3-quart pot than in a 1-quart
pot.
•
Use cookware with flat bottoms to provide the best contact with the cooktop surface when
cooking on the glass-ceramic cooktop.
•
Match the size of the cooktop burner or element to the size of the cookware in use. Using
a large element for a small pan wastes heating energy, and the exposed surface of the
element is a burn or fire hazard.
•
Reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the EasyClean
®
feature instead of
self-clean. (For Model : LSG4513, LSG4515)
•
Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven
maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.
