or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot
holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while
using the appliance. These garments may ignite if
they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING
■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up
a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a
flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan
completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat
tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother
the fire by closing the oven door and turning the
oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn
the oven off and wait for the fire to go out.
Do not
force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-
clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame
from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in severe burns.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
WARNING
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (Cont.)
■ 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 hot surface
units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
■ Never use your appliance for warming or heating
the room.
■ Do not touch the surface units, 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
the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or
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 cooktop, areas facing the
cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the
opening and crevices around the oven door.
■ Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
■ Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the
oven bottom 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.
■ Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cook
tops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass
breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken
glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.
■ 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.
