WARNING

WARNING

WARNING NEVER cover any slots, 

holes, or passages in the oven bottom or 
cover an entire rack with materials such as 
aluminum foil or oven liners. Doing so blocks 
air flow through the oven and may cause 
carbon monoxide poisoning. Never place foil 
or oven liners on the oven bottom. They can 
trap heat causing risk of smoke or fire.

Ŷ Use this appliance for its intended purpose as 

described in this owner’s manual.

Ŷ Stand away from the range when opening the 

oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can 
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

Ŷ Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease 

in the oven may ignite. 

Ŷ Place oven racks in desired location while oven 

is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, 
be careful to avoid touching hot surfaces.

Ŷ Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when 

loading and unloading food from the oven. This 
helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces 
of the door and oven walls.

Ŷ Do not leave items such as paper, cooking 

utensils or food in the oven when not in use. 
Items stored in an oven can ignite.

Ŷ Do not leave items on the cooktop near the oven 

vent which is in the center of the backguard. 
Items may overheat resulting in a risk of fire or 
burns.

Ŷ When using cooking or roasting bags in the 

oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

Ŷ Never broil with door open. Open-door broiling 

is not permitted due to overheating of control 
knobs.

The self-cleaning feature (on some models) 
operates the oven at temperatures high enough 
to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow these 
instructions for safe operation.
Ŷ Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean 

operation. Keep children away from the oven 
during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these 
instructions may cause burns.

Ŷ Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove 

pans, shiny metal oven racks and other utensils 
from the oven. Only porcelain-coated oven racks 
may be left in the oven. Do not use self-clean to 
clean other parts, such as grates.

Ŷ Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe 

grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive 
amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke 
damage to your home.

Ŷ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the 

oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have 
it serviced by a qualified technician. 

Ŷ 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.
