WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize flTerisk of fire or
explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish alist 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 fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small 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.
IMPORTANT"The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
during flTe self-cleaning cycle of any oven. Move birds to another wel! ventilated room.

These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. Theadjustment will be

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). ff you
decrease the fat, flTerecipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads• Thelower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Ft del',d standards r(*(luir(, products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% [hi by weight. Lo_-[ht spreads, on tile
