The pressure in closed containers may increase, which may cause them to burst. n Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop, and could cause burns. Power Outage CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the electric ignition oven during an electrical power failure. The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power failure. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot. If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot be relit until power is restored.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location
vary.
Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear
of the range. Do not block these ducts when
cooking in the oven—it is important that the
flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the
oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching
the vent openings or nearby surfaces during
oven or broiler operation—they may become
hot.
n
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
n
Do not leave plastic or flammable items on
the cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left too
close to the vent.
n
Do not leave closed containers on the
cooktop. The pressure in closed containers
may increase, which may cause them to burst.
n
Metal items will become very hot if they are
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Using the oven.

occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot
be relit until power is restored. This is because
the flow of gas is automatically stopped and
will not resume when power is restored until the
glow bar has reached operating temperature.
