■
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
■
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
■
Place the oven shelves in the desired position
while the oven is cool.
■
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest
position is not designed to slide.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
■
Never use aluminum foil to line the oven
bottom. Improper use of foil could start
a fire and result in high carbon monoxide.
■
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
■
For continuous clean models, do not use oven
cleaners on any of the continuous cleaning
surfaces. Continuous cleaning surfaces can
be identified by their rough surface finish.
■
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
■
Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
■
Always remove any broiler pan from range
as soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
■
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups.
■
Make sure any broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
■
If you should have a grease fire in a
broiler pan, turn off the oven control, and keep
the broiler drawer and oven door closed to
contain fire until it burns out.
■
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.
Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
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.
WARNING:
NEVER
cover
any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire shelf with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks air flow through the oven and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard.
