IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Door or Warmer
Drawer (if equipped)—Stand to the side of
the appliance when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you
remove or replace food in the oven/warmer
drawer.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven
is vented at the front above the oven door.
Touching the surfaces in this area when the
oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also,
do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on
or near the oven vent. These items could melt
or ignite.
• Placement of Oven/Warmer Drawer (if
equipped) Racks. Always place oven racks
in desired location while oven/drawer (if
equipped) is cool. Remove all utensils from the
rack before removing rack. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution.
Use potholders and grasp the rack with both
hands to reposition. Do not let potholders
contact the hot oven element or interior of the
oven/warmer drawer (if equipped).
