Oven Cooking Safety Guidelines
Oven Function
WARNING
√ Do not block the ducts on the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that theflow of
moist warm air from the oven and fresh air into the oven burner never be interrupted.
Avoid touching the vent opening or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation because they are
hot. Do not pace plastics,paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.
√ Use all the oven modes with the oven door closed.
√ Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven shelves or to line the floor of the oven.The trapped heat can
irreversibly damage the enamel and may even cause afire.
√ Do not place water,ice,or any dish or tray directly on the oven floor,as this will irreversibly damage
the enamel.
√ Do not cover the slotted grid of the broil/roast pan with aluminum foil.This will catch the grease and
could causefire.
√ Do not use plastic wrap or wax paper in the oven.
√ For food safety reasons,do not leave food in the oven for longer than two hours before and after
cooking or defrosting.This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning.
Take care during warmer weather.
√ According to the United Sates Department of Agriculture:
DO NOT hold foods at temperatures between 40°F to 140°F more than 2 hours.Cooking
raw foods below 275°F is not recommended.
√ Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack
with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks airflow through the oven
and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil lining may also trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
