IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important Instructions for Cleaning Your
Range
Before manually cleaning any
part of the range, be sure all controls are
turned OFF and the range is cool. Cleaning a
hot range can cause burns
• Clean the range regularly to keep all
parts free of grease that could catch fire.
Pay particular attention to the area
around each surface element. Do not
allow grease to accumulate.
• Always follow the manufacturer's recom-
mended directions for use of kitchen
cleaners and aerosols. Be aware that
excess residue from cleaners and aerosols
may ignite causing damage and injury.
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently.
Grease should not be allowed to accumu-
late on the hood or filter. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning
hoods.
Self-Cleaning Ovens
• Use the self-clean cycle to clean only the
parts listed in this manual. Before using
self-clean, remove the broiler pan, any
food, utensils, and cookware from the
oven. Remove oven racks unless otherwise
instructed.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner, oven liner, or protective
coating of any kind should be used in or
around any part of the oven.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The
door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Do not rub, damage, or move the gasket.
• Some birds are extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-clean
cycle of any range. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
