Warnings
Self-Clean Oven
• Clean only parts listed in this guide. DO NOT clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage, or move the gasket. DO NOT use oven cleaners of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove oven racks and other utensils and wipe up excessive spillovers to prevent excessive smoke,
flareups or flaming.
• This range features a cooling fan which operates automatically during a clean cycle. If the fan does not turn on, cancel the clean
operation and contact an authorized servicer.
• 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.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make
sure the oven control is in the “OFF” position.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range
will function properly without any adjustments. A “brown-out” may or may not affect range operation, depending on how severe the power
WARNING
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent potential
hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, DO NOT use the rangetop or
oven as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
