IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Do not store flammable materials in an oven
or near the cooktop.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Turn the surface units and the
heating elements off. Smother a flaming pan
on a surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
• Do not touch the surface units, the heating
elements or the interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even
though they are dark in color. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact, surface units, areas
nearby surface units or any interior area of the
oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop,
areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening,
surfaces near the opening and crevices around
the oven door.
Remember: The inside surface of the oven may
be hot when the door is opened.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at
least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and
poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature
of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually
protects against foodborne illness.
Oven
• Stand away from the range when opening the
oven door. The hot air or steam which escapes
can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
• Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Place the oven shelf in desired position while
the oven is cool. If shelves must be handled
when hot, do not let pot holder contact the
heating elements in the oven.
• Pulling out the shelf to the shelf stop is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
• Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored
in an oven can ignite.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
Self-Cleaning Oven
(right oven—model JCP67)
• Do not clean the 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. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating
of any kind should be used in or around any
part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners
will damage the inside of the oven when the
self-clean cycle is used.
• Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s
Manual.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan and other cookware.
• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.
Surface Cooking Units
• Use proper pan size—select
cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the surface
unit heating element. The use of undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the surface
unit to direct contact and may result in ignition
of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to
surface unit will also improve efficiency.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
