Frigidaire Gas Oven Use & Care Manual page 4

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers—Build-up of
pressure may cause the container to burst and result in
injury.
• Remove the oven doors from any unused appliance if it
is to be stored or discarded.
• IMPORTANT—Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn
the oven off. If the oven is not turned off and the power
resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Food left
unattended could catch fire or spoil.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening an Oven Door—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. The wall oven is
vented at the upper control panel trim or grille. Touching the
surfaces in this area when the wall oven is operating may
cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive
items near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If the rack must be moved
while the oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the oven burner flame or interior of the
oven or broiler drawer. Remove all utensils from the rack
before removing the rack.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler
pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from
the high heat of the broiler.
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom with
aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
• Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth.
Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the oven
or shut off the power to the oven before removing and
replacing the bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CLEANING YOUR OVEN
• Clean the wall oven regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Do not allow grease to
accumulate.
• Kitchen Cleaners/Aerosols—Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware
that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may ignite
causing damage and/or injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS
• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts of the
oven listed in this owner's guide. Before self-cleaning the
oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils stored in the
oven.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or move the gasket.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No oven cleaner or oven liner
protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any
part of the oven.
The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle
of any range. Move birds to another wel ventilated room.
