IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement 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 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.

RADIANTSURFACEUNITS
Use proper pan size--select cookware having fiat bottoms largo enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiencv.
;;Ji::Never leave the surfi_ce units unattended at
high heat settings. Boilove_3 cause smoking
and greasy spillove_ that may catch on fire.
::Ji::Only certain t,ipes of glass, glassA'eramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are
suitable fi)r cooktop service; othe_ may break
because of the sudden change in temperature.
_: To minimize the possibili_' of bm'ns, ignition
of flammable mamfials and spillage, the handle
of a container should be turned toward the

A/uminum Foil
You can use aluminum flfil to line tile
broiler pan and broiler grid. Howe_w;
you must mold tile foil tightly to tile grid
and cut slits in it just like tile grid.
Without tile slits, tile fi)il will prevent fi_t
and meat juices fl'om draining into tile

enough to catch on fire. If you do not cut
the slits, you are essentially fl'ying, not

Usingtheprobe.
Formany foods, especially roasts and poult_ internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want
The temperature probe has a
skewer-like probe at one end and
a plug at the other end that goes
into the outlet f17the oven.
Use of probes other than the one
provided with this product may result in
dainage to the [)ix)be or o%eil coiltrol.
lJse the handles of the probe and plug
xd_en inserting and remoxing them fl'onl
tile fi)od and outlet.
_!_:Toavoid damagingyour probe,donot use

_Mter preparing the meat and placing it
oil a trivet or oil the broiler pan grid,
fidlow these directions fin" proper probe

Insert the probe completely into the
meat, It should not touch bone, fat
or gristle,
NOTE: Failureto fully insert theprobeinto the

becausethe probewill sensethe ovenair vs.

_: Never &ave your probe inside the oven dunbg

_: Do not store the probe in the oven.
CAUTION:repreventpossibleburns,

For roasts Mth no bone, insert the probe

become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat
yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20_40 degrees.

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80%fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe 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.
Fedeial standards require i)roducts lal)eled "n/aigai_ine '' to contain at least 80% tilt by weight. I,()w tat sl)reads, on the
