About Your Appliance
WARNING
NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, DO NOT use the rangetop or oven as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.
•For proper oven performance and operation, DO NOT block or obstruct the oven vent duct located on the right side of the air grille.
•Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes after oven is turned off. When the oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is turned off, DO NOT touch the oven vent or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.
•Other potentially hot surfaces include rangetop, areas facing the rangetop, oven vent, surfaces near the vent opening, oven door, areas around the oven door and oven window.
•The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting, or leaning on them) can result in potential hazards and/or injuries.
Power Failure
If power failure occurs, the electric igniters will not work. No attempt should be made to operate the appliance during a power failure. Make sure the oven control is in the “OFF” position.
Momentary power failure can occur unnoticed. The range is affected only when the power is interrupted. When it comes back on, the range will function properly without any adjustments. A
Warnings
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power
to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid electrical shock.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the electric power at the main fuse or circuit breaker before replacing bulb.
WARNING
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.
CAUTION
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.
NOTICE
DO NOT turn the Temperature Control on during defrosting. Turning the convection fan on will accelerate the natural defrosting of the food without the heat.
