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 birth defects or other
reproductive harm and
requires businesses to warn
their customers of potential
exposure to such substances,
The fiberglass insulation in a
self-cleaning oven will give off
a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning
cycle. Exposure can be
minimized by venting with an
open door or window or using
a ventilation fan or hood.
READ AND UNDERSTAND
THIS INFORMATION
NOW!
Be sure everyone in your home
knows what to do in case of
fire. Never use water on a
grease fire; it will only spread
the flames,
OVEN FIRE:
Do not try to move the pane
1. Close the oven door and turn
controls off
2. If fire continues carefully open the
door, throw baking soda on the
fire, or use a dry chemical, foam,
or halon type extinguisher,
