WARNING!

SELF-CLEANING LOWER OVEN

Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms, except as suggested in this manual. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Safety Instructions

■Stand away from the oven when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

■Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

■Keep the oven vent unobstructed.

■Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■Keep the cooking center clean and free of accumulations of grease or spillovers, which may ignite.

■Never leave the oven door open when you are not watching the cooking center.

■Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool. If shelves must be handled when hot, do not let pot holder contact the heating elements.

■When using cooking or roasting bags

in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

■Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

■Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items stored in an oven can ignite.

■Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

■After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in the broiler pan can catch fire next time you use the oven.

■Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your oven.

■Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.

■Do not clean the 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. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

■Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the probe, broiler pan, grid and other cookware.

■Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting a self-cleaning cycle.

■If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

■Listen for a fan—a fan noise should be heard sometime during the cleaning cycle. If not, call for service before self-cleaning again.
