10 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
OVEN
When opening the door of a hot oven, stand away from the range. The hot air and steam
that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
............ _ WARNING
,, Never block 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 trap heat, causing a
fire hazard.
,, Do not heat food in closed containers. Pressure inside the container could increase and
cause the container to burst, resulting in injury.
,, Do not line oven walls or bottom with aluminum foil or allow them to contact exposed
heating elements in the oven. Doing so could create a fire hazard or cause damage to
the range.
,, Do not use the oven for storage. Items stored in the oven can catch on fire.
,, Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
,, Insert the oven racks in the desired position while the oven is cool.
,, To prevent burns when removing food, slide racks out until the stop engages, then
remove food items. This may also protect you from getting burnt by touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
,, When placing or removing a griddle, always wear oven mitts.
,, When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.
,, Use only glass cookware that is recommended for use in gas ovens.
,, Always remove the broiler pan from the range after you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if the oven is used without removing the grease from the broiler pan.
,, If meat is too close to the flame while broiling, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to
prevent excessive flare-ups.
,, Make sure the broiler pan is in place correctly to minimize the possibility of grease fires.
,, If you have a grease fire in the broiler pan, touch CleadOff and keep the oven door
closed to contain the fire until it burns out.
,, For safety and better cooking performance, always bake and broil with the oven door
closed. Open door baking or broiling can cause damage to the knobs or valves.
Do not leave the oven door open during cooking or while the oven is cooling down.
