Burn Prevention

DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN -

 

Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces

 

of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,

 

or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements

 

or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfac-

 

es of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfac-

 

es are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.

 

Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door

 

slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the

 

opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release

 

of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless neces-

 

sary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.

 

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause

 

the container to burst and cause injury.

 

Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be

 

moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.

 

Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result

 

in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use

 

a towel or other bulky cloth.

 

Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not

 

hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as

 

ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.

Child Safety

When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility

 

of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation

 

of the appliance by qualified persons.
