SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
●
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before
and after cooking. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause
food poisoning. Take particular care during warmer weather.
●
Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
●
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the appliance.
●
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the appliance.
●
Before self-cleaning the oven – Remove oven shelves, side racks, broiler pan and
all other cookware/utensils, and wipe up large food spills or grease deposits.
●
Before self-cleaning the oven –make sure you move any pet birds to another, closed
and well-ventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during a self-cleaning cycle, and may die if left in the same room as the range
during such a cycle.
●
Do not use any cookware on the grill or griddle.
●
Top cover (lid) must be removed when the grill or griddle is in operation.
●
When using the grill or griddle, make sure the grease drip-pan is in place – absence
of this during use may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
●
The oven(s), grill, and griddle of your range cannot be used in the event of a power
failure. Do not attempt to operate these during power failure.
●
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or cooktop. This will cause heat
to be trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance
and damage the finish of the oven or cooktop parts.
●
Do not place any dishes, trays, water or ice directly on the oven floor during cooking,
as doing so will irreversibly damage the porcelain enamel finish.
●
For safety reasons, the cooktop burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
●
Use cookware of the appropriate size and construction for the type of cooking.
This appliance is equipped with burners of different sizes. Cookware must be matched
to the size of the burner. Select utensils with flat bottoms large enough to cover
the burner flames. The use of undersize utensils will expose a portion of the burner
flames to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationships
of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
●
Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line grease drip-pans or oven bottoms.
●
Glazed cooking utensils – only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without
breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.
●
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent cooktop burners
– To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent cooktop burners.
●
The Governor of California is required 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.
●
