Whirlpool RF376PXD Range User Manual


 
When using the oven
@Always position oven rack(s) in
desired location while oven is
cool. If a rack must be removed
while oven is hot, do not let pot
holder contact hot heating ele-
ment in oven.
*Use care when opening oven
door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing
food.
Grease
@Grease is flammable. Do not
allow grease to collect around
cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-
overs immediately.
@Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan on range by
covering with a well-fitted lid,
cookie sheet, or flat tray. Flaming
grease outside of pan can be ex-
tinguished with baking soda or, if
available, a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam-type extin-
guisher.
Care and cleaning
@Clean cooktop with care. Some
cleaners could produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
If a wet paper towel is used to
wipe spills on a hot cooking area,
be careful to avoid steam burns.
@Small amounts of formaldehyde
and carbon monoxide are given
off in the Self-Cleaning cycle from
fiberglass insulation and food
decomposition. Significant expo-
sure to these substances could
cause cancer or reproduc-tive
harm. Exposure can be mini-
mized by venting with a hood or
open window and wiping out
excess food spills prior to self-
cleaning.
*Do not use oven cleaners. No
commercial oven cleaner or oven
liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any
part of the oven.
@Before self-cleaning the oven,
remove broiler pan, broiler grid,
oven racks, and other utensils.
Do not use your oven to clean
miscellaneous parts unless you
are instructed to do so in this
Use and Care Guide.
@Do not clean door heat seal. It is
essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, dam-
age, or move the seal. Clean only
parts recommended in this Use
and Care Guide.
ADO not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All
other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
*Disconnect the electrical supply
before servicing the range.
