Upper Oven - GE CGS980 Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions

UPPER OVEN

Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape
can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
I
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
I
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
I
Place the oven racks in the desired position
while the oven is cool.
I
Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls. The lowest
position is not designed to slide.
I
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
WARNING:
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.
I
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual.
Misuse could result in a fire hazard or damage
to the range.
I
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
Use only glass cookware that is recommended
for use in gas ovens.
Always remove any broiler pan from range as
soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
When broiling, if meat is too close to the flame,
the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to prevent
excessive flare-ups.
Make sure any broiler pan is in place correctly
to reduce the possibility of grease fires.
If you should have a grease fire in a broiler
pan, press the CLEAR/OFF pad, and keep
the oven door closed to contain fire until
it burns out.
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
