• Do not use decorative surface burner covers.
If a burner is accidentally turned on, the
decorative cover will become hot and possibly
melt. Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop or burners because the covers may
cause overheating. Air will be blocked from
the burner and cause combustion problems.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OvEN
• Use care when opening oven door or warmer
drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side of the
range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let
hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven/ warmer drawer.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The
oven vent is located at the center rear of the
cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area
when the oven is operating may cause severe
burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-
sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These
items could melt or ignite.
Never cover any slots, holes or
passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack 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.
• Placement of oven/warmer drawer (if
equipped) racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven/warmer drawer
(if equipped) is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use
potholders and grasp the rack with both hands
to reposition. Do not let potholders contact
the hot heating elements in the oven/warmer
drawer (if equipped). Remove all utensils from
the rack before moving.
• Do not use the broiler pan without its insert.
The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat
to drain and be kept 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 touch a hot light bulb with a damp
cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break.
Disconnect the appliance or turn off the
power to the appliance before removing and
replacing light bulb.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR ClEANING
YOUR RANGE
• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts
free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan
ventilation hoods and grease filters should be
kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate
on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan
could catch fire. When you are flaming food
under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the
hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
SElF-ClEANING OvENS
• In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts
listed in this Use and Care Guide. Before self-
cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan and
any utensils or foods from the oven.
• Do not use oven cleaners—No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any
kind should be used in or around any part of the
oven.
• Do not clean door gasket—The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will
change if left in the oven during a self-cleaning
cycle.
The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of the range. Move the
birds to another well ventilated room.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
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.
