IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BROILER
(For Model: LDG3037ST Only)
Always use a broiler pan and a grid for excess fat and grease drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
The igniter for the infrared ceramic broil burner on the ceiling of the oven will glow orange periodically during normal broil
operation.
WARNING
When using your broiler, the temperature inside the oven will be extremely high. Take caution to avoid possible burns by:
• Keeping the door closed when broiling (refer to Broil section of the manual)
• Always wear oven mitts when inserting or removing food items
CAUTION
The infrared ceramic broiler will generate intense heat and will sear foods faster compared to regular bar type broilers. This broil
system is designed to be operated under consumer-use conditions only. To avoid overheating and damaging the oven, do not
use this broiler continuously for more than 45 minutes at a time.
Do not attempt to spray the broiler and its igniter with any type of cleaners or try to scrub it. This will damage the broiler system.
The ceramic plates of your broiler do not need to be manually cleaned. Any grease or splatter on the ceramic from cooking and
baking will burn clean by simply turning on your broiler for about 10 minutes.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY
To protect against foodborne illnesses, cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F.
SELF CLEANING OVEN
Make sure to wipe off excess spillage before operating the self clean function.
CAUTION
y
DO NOT
leave food, cooking utensils, racks, etc. in the oven during the self clean cycle.
y
DO NOT
use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or
around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self clean cycle is
used.
y
Remove oven racks and other items from both upper and lower ovens before starting the self clean cycle.
y
Only clean the parts listed in this manual.
y
DO NOT
clean the door gasket. The door gasket is necessary for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
move the gasket.
y
If the self cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the range off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified
technician.
y
It is normal for parts of the oven to become hot during a self clean cycle.
y
Avoid touching the door, window or oven vent area during a clean cycle.
