SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - BEFORE YOU BEGIN
(CONTINUED)
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, step on, lean against, or sit on any part of the appliance,
especially the oven door. This may result in damage to the appliance, or personal injury.
FIRE SAFETYFIRE SAFETY
To reduce the risk of a fire, do not leave surface elements unattended at high settings. Boilover
causes smoking and greasy spills that may ignite.
Always turn on the ventilation hood when cooking. Clean vent hood grease filters frequently -
grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filters.
Use the appropriate pan size for the surface element being used.
Keep the appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids. NEVER store flammable liquids and materials in, above, or on the range, or near
cooking surfaces. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation air of the appliance.
ALWAYS have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
ALWAYS have an appropriate dry-chemical fire extinguisher nearby. Smother fire or flames using the
lid of the utensil (pot or pan), a cookie sheet or metal tray. Then shut off the surface element. Use
an extinguisher, or baking soda if the fire is small and relatively contained. DO NOT USE WATER
ON A GREASE FIRE. Doing so may result in spreading the fire elsewhere.
NEVER pick up a flaming pan. You may spill the grease on yourself and be severely burned.
If accessible, turn off the ventilation hood during a fire, but do not reach through the flames to do
this.
In the event of personal clothing or hair catching fire, drop and roll immediately to smother the
flames. Seek medical attention if necessary.
Do not hang articles from any part of the appliance or place anything against the oven door. Some
fabrics are highly flammable and could ignite.
IF THE FLAMES DO NOT GO OUT - EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
SAFETY DURING CLEANINGSAFETY DURING CLEANING
Only clean the appliance as directed in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the oven or any part of the range. Steam could penetrate into
electrical components and cause a short circuit and/or shock hazard.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard objects such as brushes or scrapers, or sharp metal tools to clean
the door glass or ceramic top. Scratches could cause the glass to shatter.
Heavy food debris should be removed before running the self-clean cycle. Remove all oven racks,
broiler pans, utensils, temperature probes, etc. from the oven before self-clean. Removal of the left &
right ladder racks inside should also be done as they will discolor from the intense heat.
Do not rub, disturb or damage the cloth-braided door gasket. If the gasket is damaged, it will need to
be replaced.
Do not pour cold water onto hot surfaces inside the oven. The steam could cause serious burns. The
sudden temperature change could also distort the metal surfaces inside the oven resulting in cracks in
the enamel.
If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Wait until the appliance is completely cool before using any aerosol-type cleaners. Many of these
cleaners use flammable propellants which could ignite in the presence of heat. Some cleaners can
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
