Cookware Safety
Notes

Do not place food directly on oven bottom.

Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using

cooking or roasting bags.

Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning

food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the

pan.

Use proper pan size.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion

of the heating element or burner to direct contact and

may result in ignition of clothing. Select cookware

having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface

heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or

more surface units of different size. Proper relationship

of cookware to heating element or burner will also

improve efficiency.

Cookware not approved for use with ceramic

cooktops may break with sudden temperature

changes. Use only pans that are appropriate for

ceramic cooktops. See Cookware Selection Guide.

Always position handles of utensils inward so they do

not extend over adjacent work areas, burners or the

edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires,

spills and burns.

CAUTION

Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct 

contact with the drawer or hot utensil. If it melts on to the 

drawer, it may not be removable.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY
When cooking with a bain-marie, the cooktop and 

cooking vessel may crack due to overheating. The 

cooking vessel in the bain-marie must not come in direct 

contact with the bottom of the pot filled with water. Use 

only heat-resistant cookware.

WARNING

DANGER OF INJURY
Cookware may spring or bounce upward due to fluid 

trapped between the cookware bottom and cooking 

zone. Always keep cooking zone and cookware bottom 

dry.

State of California Proposition 65 

Warnings

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including 

vinyl chloride, which is known to the State of 

California to cause cancer and birth defects or other 

reproductive harm. For more information go to 

www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Note:  IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe 

Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the 

Governor of California to publish a list of substance 

known to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other 

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn 

customers of potential exposure to such substances. The 

burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil 

during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of 

carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in Self Clean 

ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde 

during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists 

formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon 

monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. 

Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately

after self-cleaning the oven.

3. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this

manual.

Food Safety

CAUTION

To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:

a. DO NOT use a warming drawer to heat cold food. It is

safe to use the drawer to crisp crackers, chips or dry

cereal and to warm plates.

b. Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The

USDA recommends holding hot food at 140°F or

warmer.

c. DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.
