The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California
topublish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers ofpotential exposure to such substances.
Thefiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very smafi amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

Usingtheprobe.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for aloneness.
The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
Thetemperature probe has a

plug at the other end that goes into
the outlet in the oven,
