IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the oven, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Proper Installation – Be sure the oven is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

•Never Use the Oven for Warming or Heating the Room.

•Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven.

•Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the oven.

•User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the oven unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

•Storage in Oven – Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven.

•Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

•Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

•Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

•Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build- up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

•Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

•Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

•DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN – Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior sur- faces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors.

•Do Not Clean Door Gasket – The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

•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.

•Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.

•Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and other utensils.
