Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn

Always pull the oven rack out to the rack stop position

DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See
accessory brochure that came with your appliance).
The broil pan and broil pan insert (some models) allows
grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of
the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without the insert (Fig.

exposed grease could ignite.
