Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a rack must be
moved while the oven is hot, do not let the potholders contact the broiler element.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam escape before remov-
ing or replacing foods.
Do not clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door gasket. It is essential for a
good seal during baking. If the gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts indicated in this booklet.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in
or around the self-cleaning oven.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
For safety reasons and to avoid equipment damage, never sit, stand, or lean on the
oven door.
Service should only be done by authorized technicians. Technicians must dis-
connect the power supply before servicing this unit.
Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the oven controls are set in broil
or bake modes. If the fan does not operate, do not use the oven. Call an authorized
service center for service.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be prevented by frequently clean-
ing the ventilation hood and filters.
• In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other spirits on the
range's cooktop, follow hood manufacturer’s instructions.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy,
bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk
of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small
quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
WARNING
To avoid possible burn or fire hazard, a backguard designed specifically
for this range must be installed whenever the range is used.
California Proposition 65
WARNING
The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive 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 Monoxide.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formal-
dehyde during the first several cleaning cycles.
California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon Monoxide is a
potential cause of reproductive toxicity.
Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
