■ 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.
■ Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
■ When using cooking or roasting bags in
the oven, follow the manufacturer’s
directions.
■ 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 the 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 the broiler pan is in place
correctly to reduce the possibility of
grease fires.
■ If you should have a grease fire in the
broiler pan, turn off the oven control, and
keep the broiler door and oven door
closed to contain fire until it burns out.
■ For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven and
broiler doors closed.
■ Never leave jars of fat drippings on or near
your range.
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 rack 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.
