1.Read all instructions.

2.Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3.To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plug, or oven in water or other liquid.

4.Close supervision is necessary when any appli- ance is used by or near children.

5.Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning appliance and putting on or taking off parts.

6.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for information on examination, repair or adjustment.

12.To disconnect, turn any control to Off, then remove plug from wall outlet.

Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety fea- ture intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try revers- ing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a quali- fied electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the oven. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or acci- dentally tripped over.

This appliance is equipped with a fully tempered safety glass door. The tempered glass is four times stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage. Tempered glass can break, however it breaks into pieces with no sharp edges. Care must be taken to avoid scratching door surface or nicking edges. If the door has a scratch or nick, call our toll-free customer service number.

Always unplug your oven from the outlet when not in use.

Before First Use

Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used for the first time. Plug the oven into an outlet. Turn the Temperature Knob to 450°F (230ºC). Heat at this temperature for 10 minutes. The odor should not be pre- sent after this initial preheating. Wash all accessories before using.
