Important Safety Instructions
Coil Elements
To prevent damage to removable surface heating
elements, do not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher
or self-clean oven. A damaged element could short,
resulting in a fire or shock hazard.
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these
bowls during cooking could damage wiring.
Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as
suggested in the guide. Improper installation of these
liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Heating Elements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens.
Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in
color. Areas near surface elements and interior surfaces of
the ovens may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other
flammable materials contact heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include: cooktop, areas facing
the cooktop, oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening,
oven doors, areas around the doors and oven windows.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or
disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before
attempting to move pan.
CAUTION
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven
racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe
spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups.
Self-Cleaning Ovens
Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do not clean door
gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. Do not 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 ovens.
Wipe up excessive spillovers, especially greasy spills, before
the clean cycle to prevent smoking, flare-ups or flaming.
It is normal for the cooktop to become hot during a clean
cycle. Therefore, avoid touching the cooktop, door, window
or oven vent during a clean cycle.
Ovens
Use care when opening doors. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
For proper oven operation and performance, do not block or
obstruct oven vent duct. When ovens are in use, the vent
and surrounding area near the vent may become hot
enough to cause burns.
Always place oven racks in desired locations while ovens
are cool. If rack must be moved while an oven is hot, do
not let potholder contact hot element in oven.
