Warnings

CAUTION

DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become

extremely hot to the touch!

During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of the binder in the high-density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures.

KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.

CAUTION

You must carefully check the food during the dehydration process to ensure that it does not catch fire.

WARNING

BURN HAZARD

When self-cleaning, surfaces may get hotter than usual. Therefore, children should be kept away.

CAUTION

DO NOT store items of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing to reach items could be seriously injured.

Before Using Range

All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained from the manufacturing process. Before starting to cook, clean the range thoroughly with hot, soapy water. There may be some burn off and odors on first use of the appliance—this is normal.
