Important Safety Instructions, continued
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles or spattered oils stuck to
the oven walls or floor can cause paint damage and reduce the efficiency
of the oven.
• Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• When cleaning door and oven surfaces, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven:
a. Do not overcook food. Watch appliance carefully if paper, plastic, or
other combustible materials are inside.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from plastic cooking bags before placing bags
in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the
oven off, disconnect the power cord, or shut off the power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
d. Do not use the oven compartment for storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the oven when not in use.
• Do not try to preheat oven or operate while empty.
• Do not cook without the glass tray in place on the oven floor. Food will not
cook properly without the tray.
• Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles. The containers
can break.
• Dishes and containers can become hot. Handle with care.
• Carefully remove container coverings, directing steam away from hands
and face.
• Remove lids from baby food before heating. After heating baby food, stir
well and test temperature by tasting before serving.

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension
cords are available and may be used with caution.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a
grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly
grounded outlet of standard 115-120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your
oven should be the only appliance on this circuit.
