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
surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to
cause burns. Among these surfaces 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 necessary 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.
• Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol
content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven.
Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a
risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in
the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods,
and open the oven door carefully.
9 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.
9 WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance
as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing
so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and
overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance
for storage.
• 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.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang
on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming
drawer or storage drawer. This can damage the
appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing
severe injury.
• Do not allow children to use this appliance unless
closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets
should not be left alone or unattended in the area
where the appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the
appliance is in use.
9 CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in
an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on
the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance
to reach items could be seriously injured.
