9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS When cooking fatty or oily foods on burners, the grill, or the griddle, adjacent gas burners can ignite airborne fumes. Use caution to avoid burns. To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and filters. In case of fire or when intentionally "flaming" liquor or other spirits on the appliance, follow manufacturer's instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon). Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods. DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury. WARNING DO NOT leave food or cooking utensils, etc, in oven during the self-cleaning mode of operation. Before self-cleaning the oven (select models), remove the broiler pan, oven racks, and any other utensils, and excess spillage. WARNING This appliance should not be installed with a ventilation system that directs air in a downward direction toward the appliance. This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion problems with the appliance resulting in personal injury, property damage, or unintended operation. Ventilating systems that direct the air upwards do not have any restriction. An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which operates by blowing a downward airflow onto a range, shall not be used in conjunction with a gas range unless the hood and range have been designed and tested in accordance with the Standard for Domestic Gas Ranges, ANSI Z21.1 • CSA 1.1, and listed by an independent testing laboratory for combination use. IMPORTANT: There is a possibility to discolor the back wall under certain cooking conditions. 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. 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. DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors. 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. Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing foods. Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to the odors created during the self-cleaning process whether it is a manufacturing residue burn off or food. It is recommended that those potentially affected be removed from the kitchen area during the self-clean process. Page. 12
