„ 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 top and bottom of the
oven door, and at the bottom of the range under lower
oven drawer or panel.

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

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.
„ Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven
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. 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.
„ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials
accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven
may ignite.
„ Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
„ If there is a fire in the oven during baking, turn the oven
off and keep the door closed until the fire goes out. If
necessary, use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam
type fire extinguisher. Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
„ 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.
