oven to dry newspapers.
— Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and waxed

cause arcing or ignite. Paper products
containing nylon or nylon filaments should

of fire. If by accident the oven should run
empty a minute or two, no harm is done.
However, try to avoid operating the oven
empty at all times—it saves energy and
prolongs the life of the oven.
