BROWNING AND GRILLING SAFETY

Safety

■Use the black metal tray when browning or grilling. Use the tray in the same way you would use a shallow baking pan or baking tray. Place food, oven-safe cookware or the browner rack directly on the black metal tray when cooking.

■Use of the glass turntable when browning or grilling will result in inferior cooking performance.

■Do not cover the black metal tray with metal foil. This will cause arcing in the oven.

■Any non-metal, oven-safe dish can be used when browning or grilling in the oven.

■The oven and door will get hot when browning or grilling.

■Cookware will become hot when browning or grilling. Pot holders or oven mitts will be needed to handle the cookware.

■Do not use paper towels or coverings, containers or cooking/roasting bags made of foil or other reflective material, plastic, wax or paper when browning or grilling.

■Do not place food directly against the top or bottom heating elements.

■Use of the browner rack:

—Place the dish directly on the rack.

—Remove the rack from the oven when not in use.

—Use pot holders or oven mitts when handling the rack. It may be hot.

—Be sure that the rack is positioned properly inside the oven to prevent product damage.

—Do not cover the rack or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

■During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials contact the top heating element or guard. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. Allow sufficient time for cooling first.

■Remove cookware completely from the oven before turning food.

■Make sure food is cooked all the way through before browning.

Operating Instructions

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Troubleshooting

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

We do not recommend using an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

(See EXTENSION CORDS section.)

For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.
