Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20121002-0D964-2147463219. Matched catalog product: Frigidaire Electric Range Model FFEF3054TS. Source model text: Frigidaire Professional Series Range. Model No. FEFLZ87GCB. Incident: Frigidaire Professional Series Range. Model No. FEFLZ87GCB, Serial No. VF82238149. (I found the receipt~Bought at hhgregg on 8/2/08). Last November, my Husband was on shift (fire fighter) and I was making TV dinners for my kids. I put the plastic trays on a cookie sheet as instructed by the box and put them in the pre-heated 350 degree oven (which actually smelled funny when it was pre-heating). I had it in only for about 5 minutes when the range made a beeping noise. I went in and there was an error code in the display. There was no way for me to turn anything off or stop the "alarm". I immediately looked up the code and it stated it was a "Run Away Temperature" code. I ran and flipped the breaker to turn the oven off. When I took the food out, the trays were completely melted onto my cookie sheets and anything that was on top of the cooktop melted as well~the entire range got THAT hot.
