SAFETY PRACTICES TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY
■ Never store anything in the oven. Flammable materials can catch fire, plastic items may melt or ignite and other
types of items could be ruined or damage the interior surface of the appliance.
■ Do not hang articles on any part of the appliance or place anything against the oven. Some fabrics are quite
flammable and may catch fire.
■ Do not use water on grease fires. Turn OFF the oven, then smother the fire with baking soda or use a dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
■ Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation air to the appliance. Be sure a fresh air supply is available especially
during the self clean cycle.
■ For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the appliance, never sit, stand, or lean on the oven door.
■ Be careful not to rub, damage, move or remove the door gasket. A good seal is essential during cooking.
■ Place oven racks in desired position while the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while
the oven is hot, do not let the pot holders contact the hot interior of the oven.
■ Place oven racks right side up to avoid any burns or spilling of food.
■ Clean the oven with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to
clean the appliance while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to
a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer.
■ Be sure the oven controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or
around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or
cause metal parts to corrode.
■ Clean the oven frequently so that grease from cooking vapors does not accumulate on the oven interior.
■ Use care when opening a hot oven door to avoid severe burns, open slowly, allow the hot air or steam to escape
before reaching in to remove or replace any foods.
■ Never open the oven door with children near by. They could come into contact with the hot oven inner
surfaces, resulting in severe burns.
■ Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Allow proper ventilation.
■ For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
■ During and after use, do not touch the interior surfaces of the oven; allow sufficient time to cool.
■ During and after use, do not allow clothing or any flammable material to touch the interior surfaces of the oven,
as they may catch fire; allow sufficient time to cool.
■ During and after use, some exterior surfaces may become hot enough to cause burn injury if touched. These are
the oven vent openings and areas near these openings, oven window glass, and oven doors. Always use a
protective nonflammable cooking mitt or pot holder.
■ Condensation: During any cooking process there is a certain amount of moisture that evaporates from the food.
The amount of moisture that condenses on the oven depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture
will condense on any surface that is cooler than the inside of the oven. While baking with an extremely moist
food product in the oven, condensation may collect on the oven near the control panel or the top of the door of
the oven(s) in use near the catalyst ducts.
