Place oven racks in desired position while oven is cool. If a 
rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the 
potholders contact the broiler element.
Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam 
escape before removing or replacing foods.
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, oven 
racks, temperature probe and any other utensils, and 
excess spillage.
Please note that some pets or humans can be sensitive to 
the odors created during the self-cleaning process whether 
it is a manufacturing residue burn off or food, so it is 
recommended that those potentially affected be removed 
from the kitchen area during the self-clean process.
DO NOT clean, rub, damage, move or remove the door 
gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. If the 
gasket becomes worn or excessively soiled with food 
particles, replace gasket to assure a tight seal.
Protect the self-cleaning feature. Clean only those parts 
indicated in this booklet. DO NOT use commercial oven 
cleaners or oven liner protective coatings of any kind in or 
around the self-cleaning oven(s).
For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the range, 
never sit, stand, or lean on the oven door.
Service should only be done by authorized technicians. 
Technicians must disconnect the power supply before 
servicing this unit.
Listen to be sure the cooling blower runs whenever the 
oven controls are set to BROIL or BAKE modes, after oven 
heats to 300°F (149°C). If the fan does not operate, do not 
use the oven. Call an authorized service center for service.
To avoid a fire hazard, grease accumulation must be 
prevented by frequently cleaning the ventilation hood and 
filters.
In case of fire or when intentionally “flaming” liquor or other 
spirits on the range's cooktop, follow manufacturer’s 
instructions. Use caution when cooking foods with high 
alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. 
Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of 
burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. 
Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the 
oven door carefully.
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
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.
The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil 
during self-cleaning can generate some by-products which 
are on the list. Exposure to these substances can be 
minimized by:
1.
 Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2.
 Providing good ventilation during and immediately 
after self cleaning the oven.
3.  Operating the unit according to the instructions in this 
manual.
DO NOT store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, 
flammables, or nonfood products in or near this appliance. 
It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking 
food. The use of corrosive chemicals while heating or 
cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in 
injury.
Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
 
DO NOT block or obstruct the flow of air 
through the ventilation openings. The oven 
vent is located at the back of the appliance. 
The vents need to be unobstructed and 
open to provide necessary airflow that is 
important for proper oven performance. 
DO NOT touch oven vent area while the 
appliance is on and for several minutes 
after the appliance is off. Some parts of the 
vent and surrounding areas become hot 
enough to cause burns. Allow appliance 
sufficient time to cool before touching or 
cleaning vent areas.
DO NOT position plastic or other heat-
sensitive items on or near the oven vent. 
These items could melt or ignite.
