SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The elimination of soil during self-cleaning
generates some by-products which are on
this list of substances.
To minimize exposure to these substances,
always operate this oven according to the
instructions in this manual and provide
good ventilation to the room during and
immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.
In the event that personal clothing or hair
catches fire, drop and roll immediately to
extinguish flames.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders in contact with hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam.
Do not use a towel or other types of bulky cloth
in place of potholders. They may ignite if they
touch a hot element.
GENERAL OVEN SAFETY
Do not touch hot elements or hot interior
surfaces of the oven.
The heating elements may be hot even though
they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an
oven become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact
the heating elements until they have had sufficient
time to cool.
The trim on top and on the sides of the oven
door may become hot enough to cause burns.
Use care when opening the oven door. Open
slightly at first to let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-
up of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
Always place oven racks at desired level while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot
elements.
SELF-CLEANING MODE SAFETY
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses
to warn customers of potential exposure to
substances which are known by the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive
harm.
