IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer
Drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side of the range
when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam
escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located under the left rear surface element if your model is
equipped with coil elements. The oven vent is located
below the backguard for models equipped with ceramic-
glass cook tops. Touching the surfaces in this area when
the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do
not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and
grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven.
Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The
broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the
oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in
this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed
in this Use & Care Manual. Before self cleaning the
oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods from
the oven.
• 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.
• Do Not Clean Door Gasket—The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or move the gasket.
•The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range.
Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
