Ŷ Do not store or use flammable materials in 

an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, 
plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, 
curtains, drapes and gasoline or other 
flammable vapors and liquids.

Ŷ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments 

while using the appliance. Avoid storing 
commonly used items in cabinets above the 
range and be careful when reaching over the 
range. Clothing in close proximity to burners or 
hot surfaces may ignite causing severe burns.

Ŷ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable 

materials accumulate in or near the range. 
Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite. 

Ŷ Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease 

should not be allowed to accumulate on the 
hood or filter.

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)

WARNING

Ŷ Never block the vents (air openings) of the 

range. They provide the air inlets and outlets 
that are necessary for the range to operate 
properly with correct combustion. Air openings 
are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top 
and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom 
of the range under the broil drawer, lower oven 
drawer or kick panel.

Ŷ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot 

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns 
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch surface 
burners, burner grate, or oven heating element. 
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place 
of pot holders.

Ŷ Do not touch 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 any interior area of the oven; 

allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other 
surfaces of the appliance may become hot 
enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces 
include the burners, grates, oven vent opening, 
surfaces near the opening and crevices around 
the oven door.

Ŷ Do not heat unopened food containers. 

Pressure could build up and the container could 
burst, causing an injury.

Ŷ 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.

Ŷ Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover 

the oven bottom, drip pans or anywhere in the 
oven, except as described in this manual. Oven 
liners can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage 
to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.

KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE OVEN

Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.
