Important safety instructions _7
SELF-CLEANING OVENS
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.
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen. The health of birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes
released during an oven self-clean cycle. Fumes may be harmful or fatal to birds. Move birds to a
well-ventilated room.
Clean in the self-clean cycle only parts listed in this manual. Before self-clean the oven,
remove the broil pan , rack, utensils, and food.
No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or
on the outside of the oven. Use only a ceramic cooktop cleaner or the cleaner supplied with this
appliance on the glass cooktop.
Nickel oven shelves should be removed from the oven before beginning the self-cleaning cycle, or
they may discolor.
If the self-clean mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it
serviced by a qualified technician.
VENTILATING HOOD
Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood
or filter.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES
DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS. Surface units may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface
units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the
cook-top and facing the cook-top.
Do not cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers
may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
technician immediately.
Clean cooktop with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Clean the oven thoroughly before using for the first time. Remove accessories and operate
the oven at the bake setting at 400°F for 1 hour before using. There will be a distinctive odor; this
is normal, but ensure your kitchen is well ventilated during this conditioning period.
