SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
Thank you for choosing your new DCS Professional Wall Oven. Our products are designed to be safe
and reliable when properly cared for and used responsibly. When using this professional-style
appliance,use it with extreme care, as this type of appliance provides intense heat which can increase
the accident potential. Basic safety precautions must be followed when using kitchen appliances,
including the following:
Read this Use and Care Guide thoroughly before using your new appliance. This will help to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Begin by insuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions which
came with this appliance. Be sure to have a qualified technician install and ground this
appliance before using.
Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this
manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified Service Technician. Service
Technicians must disconnect the power supply before servicing this appliance.
WARNING:
This appliance is for cooking.Never use the oven to warm or heat a room.
Be certain to use only dry pot holders: a moist or damp pot holder on hot surfaces may cause
a steam burn injury. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
Use only oven-proof types of bakeware in the oven,as non-suitable types are not heat safe and
may break under intense heat or drastic thermal changes, such as heating refrigerated food in
a preheated oven.
Do not heat unopened food containers;a build up of pressure may cause the container to
burst and could result in injury.
To avoid burn injuries when using the oven, do not touch the interior surfaces of the oven or
exterior area immediately surrounding the door until it has had sufficient time to cool.
Do not touch or allow flammable material to touch the heating element.Even if it appears dark
in color,it may still be hot enough to cause burns or catch flammables on fire; allow sufficient
time to cool.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven. Using a foil liner could result in a fire
hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of ventilation air. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and
heat will be trapped underneath it.This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance.You
may line the broil pan with foil.However,if you cover the broil pan top,be sure to cut slits in the
foil for the grease holes in order to allow grease to drain through.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use.They
should never be allowed to turn knobs, push buttons,sit or stand on any part of an appliance.
Children in walkers, or children crawling can be attracted to the oven door handle and may
grab and open the oven door. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a
child,or severe burns if the oven is in use and hot.
WARNING:
Do not store items of interest to children above or near the appliance.Children
could be seriously injured if they should climb onto the appliance to reach
these items.
