Lower Oven Drawer - GE CGS980 Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

LOWER OVEN DRAWER

I
The purpose of the warm setting of the lower
oven drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at
serving temperature. Always start with hot
food; cold food cannot be heated or cooked
using the warm setting of the lower oven
drawer.
I
Do not use the drawer to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch on fire.
I
Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned
food or combustible materials in the drawer.
I
Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in
or near your drawer.
I
Do not warm food in the drawer for more
than two hours.
I
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY...
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
SELF-CLEANING THE UPPER OVEN
I
Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
I
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove any
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware,
probe and any aluminum foil.
I
Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.
I
The gray porcelain-coated oven racks may be
cleaned in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
I
Clean only parts listed in this Owner's Manual.
6
I
Do not touch the heating element or
the interior surface of the drawer. These
surfaces may be hot enough to burn.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the drawer
may be hot when the drawer is opened.
I
Use care when opening the drawer. Open the
drawer a crack and let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
Hot air or steam which escapes can cause
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
I
Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower
oven drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator
and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset
the performance of the drawer and it could
damage the interior finish.
I
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
I
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,
turn the oven off and disconnect the power
supply. Have it serviced by a qualified
technician.
I
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind should
be used in or around any part of the oven.
Residue from oven cleaners will damage the
inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle
is used.
