During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the oven vent openings, the surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

• Use Only Dry Pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holders touch hot surface units. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a pot holder.
