• Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bub-
bling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting.
Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
• Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
• Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does
not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments,
such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
• Avoid reaching or leaning over the appliance. Be aware that certain clothing
and hair sprays may contain flammable chemicals that could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface units or heating elements and may cause
severe burns.
• Do not touch interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. The interior of the
drawer could become hot enough to cause burns. Allow drawer and rack (if
equipped) to cool before handling.
• WARNING: To prevent burns, do not remove drawer while hot. Be sure
drawer is empty before removing.
Child Safety • When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal respon-
sibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in
safe practices by qualified persons.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appli-
ance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage
the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
• Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an
adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area
where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its
vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
• CAUTION - Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance,
in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an
appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety • IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of sub-
stances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure
to such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of
soil during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of Carbon Monox-
ide.The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small amounts
of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists form-
aldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon Monoxide is a potential
cause of reproductive toxicity.Exposure to these substances can be mini-
mized by:
1) Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2) Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self cleaning the
oven.
3) Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
• Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns
from steam.
• When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door
does not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
• Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep pet birds out of the
kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self
clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes
such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
• Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety • Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
• Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
