Important Safety Instructions

WARNING:

•To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off the oven and be sure that the oven is cool before clean- ing.

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

•Do not leave the oven unattended when cooking with oils or fats. They can be a fire hazard if over- heated.

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

•The oven automatically locks the oven door during self-cleaning. Do not try to force the door open after it is locked. Damage to the door and door latch may result.

•Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan grill and pan, oven racks, convection filter, meat probe, and any other utensils.

•Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn up during self-cleaning and cause permanent damage to the oven.

•Properly clean and maintain the oven as recommended in this manual.

•Clean only those parts listed in this manual.

•Use only the cleaning solutions specified in this manual to clean your oven. Do not use any cleaners that are not specified to clean the inside or outside of the oven. Other cleaning solutions could pro- duce hazardous fumes, cause corrosion of the metal parts, and could permanently damage the fin- ishes.

•Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing, moving, or in any way damaging the door gasket may eliminate the required tight door seal. Clean only as specified in this manual.

•Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to remain on the oven surfaces inside or out- side the oven. The porcelain finish may stain.

•Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the oven. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

•Do not leave metal objects, such as aluminum foil, the meat probe, cookie sheets, etc. on the floor of the oven. Objects left on the bottom of the oven could trap heat in the bottom, damaging the bake element. In addition, the objects themselves could be damaged.

•Do not allow the glass panels in the top and bottom of the oven to become covered up by cookie sheets, aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Some of the ovens heating elements are behind the glass panels. Covering them could cause the heating elements behind them to over-heat, damaging the oven.

•To prevent damage, remove the meat probe from the oven when it is not being used.

•Do not allow the cool air intake or exhaust slots, located below the bottom of the oven door(s) to become obstructed at any time. Do not operate the oven if the metal strip below the oven door is bent.

•Do not allow the cool air slots located inside the door(s) to become obstructed at any time.

•Do not use the oven for warming or heating the room.
