NOTES

WARNING

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and

turn the oven OFF. If the fire continues, use a fire

extinguisher.

DO NOT

put water or flour on the fire.

Flour may be explosive.

*Use the off-set rack if you choose to use oven rack position 7.

**We recommend following the USDA guidelines of 160°F/71°C as a safe minimum internal temperature for Ground beef. Consuming

raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood or shellfish may increase your risk of food borne illness.

NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from the element.

Always watch food carefully to prevent burning.
