This appliance
has been tested for safe performance
using conventional
cookware. Do not use any devices or
accessories that are not specifically
recommended
in
this guide. Do not use eyelid covers for the surface
units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven convection
sys-
tems. The use of devices or accessories that are not
expressly recommended
in this manual can create
serious safety hazards, result in performance
problems,
and reduce the life of the components
of the appliance.
Cmeaning Safety
Turn off all controls and wait for appliance
parts to cool
before touching
or cleaning them. Do not touch the
burner grates or surrounding
areas until they have had
sufficient
time to cool.
Clean appliance
with caution. Use care to avoid steam
burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a
hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes
if applied to a hot surface.
Before self-cleaning
the oven, remove broiler pan, oven
racks and other utensils and wipe up excessive
spfllovers to prevent excessive smoke, flare-ups
or
flaming.
It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot
during a self-clean
cycle. Therefore, touching
the
cooktop during a clean cycle should be avoided.
Important
Safety Notice
and
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforce-
ment Act of 1986 (Proposition
65} requires the Governor
of California to publish a list of substances
known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive
harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers
of potential
exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the
burning of gas can result in low-level exposure to some
of the listed substances, including
benzene, formalde-
hyde and soot, due primarily to the incomplete
combus-
tion of natural gas or liquid petroleum
(LP} fuels. Prop-
erly adjusted burners will minimize incomplete
combus-
tion. Exposure to these substances
can also be mini-
mized by properly venting the burners to the outdoors.
Self-Clean
Oven
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when
the oven is engaged in the self-clean
cycle, there may
be some low-level
exposure to some of the listed
substances, including
carbon monoxide. Exposure to
these substances
can be minimized
by properly venting
the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows
and/
or door in the room where the appliance is located
during the self-clean
cycle.
Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do not clean door
UMPORTANT
NOTUCE REGARDUNG PET BURDS:
gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the
gasket. Do not use oven cleaners of any kind in or
around any part of the self-clean
oven.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where
the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a
very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during
an oven self-cleaning
cycle may be harmful or fatal to
birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking off, fat,
margarine
and overheated
non-stick
cookware
may be
equally harmful.
