Frigidaire GCFE3060BF Use & Care Manual page 7

Improper cookware may break due to
sudden changes in temperature. Check the
cookware manufacturer's recommenda-
tions for cooktop use.
Never leave surface elements unattend-
ed. Boil-overs may cause smoking and
greasy spills that may ignite. A pan that
has boiled dry could be damaged and may
damage the cooktop.
Do not use a searing grill meant for use
with a broiler pan on the cooktop. The
searing grill is not designed for use on the
cooktop. Doing so may result in a fi re.
When you are fl aming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn on the fan.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS
AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cook-
top. If cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of elec-
tric shock. Contact a qualifi ed technician
immediately.
Clean cooktop glass with caution. If a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on
a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a
steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with
sharp objects.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum
foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other
materials or devices to line oven bottom,
oven racks, or any other part of the appli-
ance. Only use aluminum as recommend-
ed for baking, such as lining cookware or
as a cover placed on food. Any other use
of protective liners or aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fi re or a
short circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some mod-
els). Stand to the side of the appliance
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.
Touching surfaces in this area when the
oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not
place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or
near the oven vent. These items can 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, do not let potholder contact hot
burner or element in oven. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to re-
position. Remove all cookware and utensils
before moving the rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat
to drain away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with
aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease
could ignite.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Al-
ways cook in proper cookware and always
use the oven racks.
