General Safety Precautions

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your oven, follow basic safety precautions, including the following:

warning

•If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged appliance.

•Make sure that the oven has been properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to the accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker panel or fuse box so that you know where and how to turn off power to the oven.

•Do not install, repair or replace any part of the oven unless specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A qualified service technician should perform all other service.

•Before performing any type of service, make sure that the electrical power to the oven is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

•Only use the oven for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as outlined in this manual. This oven is not intended for commercial use.

•DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.

•Make sure individuals who use the oven are able to operate it properly.

•Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand or climb on any part of the oven including the door(s). Doing so may cause tipping, damage, serious injury or death.

•Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area around the oven. Do not allow children to play with the controls, pull on the handle(s) or touch other parts of the oven.

•Do not store items of interest to children above the oven. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on the appliance.

•Do not tamper with the controls.

•To prevent the unit from tipping forward and to provide a stable installation, make sure the oven is secured to the cabinet according to the accompanying installation instructions.

•Do not heat unopened food containers such as baby food jars and cans. Pressure build up may cause the container to burst and cause injury.

•Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam explosion may result. Smother any flames with a lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use baking soda or a foam extinguisher to extinguish flaming grease. Be careful to avoid getting burned.

warning

•Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard, plastic and cloth away from and out of the oven. Do not allow pot holders to touch hot surfaces.

•Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using the oven. Do not allow clothing to come into contact with the interior of the oven and surrounding areas during and immediately after use.

•Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.

•Do not use the oven for storage.

•Clean and maintain the oven regularly as instructed in this manual. Keep the entire oven free of grease that could catch fire.

•Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during the self clean cycle. They will be hot.

•Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations before use to determine if a utensil is suitable for use in an oven.

Certain types of glass, ceramic and earthenware are not suitable. Personal injury or damage may result from the improper use of cookware.

•Exercise caution when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before looking or reaching inside.

•Use extreme caution if adding water to food in the oven. The steam can cause serious burns or scalds.

•Use only dry pot holders when removing food and cookware from the oven. Wet pot holders can cause steam burns.

•For your safety, do not use the oven to cook without the convection filter installed. When the filter is not installed, the spinning fan blades at the back of the oven are exposed.

•Do not allow food to sit in the oven for more than one hour before or after cooking. Eating spoiled food can result in food poisoning.

•Do not leave objects that could melt, such as aluminum foil, the meat probe or cookie sheets on the bottom of the oven.

•Do not allow the broil element on the ceiling of the oven chamber to be covered up with cookie sheets, pots pans etc. Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. Doing so may cause a fire hazard or damage the oven.

•Non-stick coatings, when heated, can be harmful to birds. Remove birds to a separate, well-ventilated room during cooking.
