Safety Instructions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Tie long hair so that it doesn't hang loose.
• 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 or the interior surfaces of the oven until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
• The trim on the top and sides of the oven door
may become hot enough to cause burns.
• Use care when opening the door. Open the door
slightly 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 in desired location while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let pot holder contact the heating
elements.
• Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot eating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WITH
SELF CLEANING OVEN
• Confirm that the door locks and will not open
once START is touched and the Door Lock icon
appears. If door does not lock, touch OVEN OFF
and do not run Self-Clean. Phone 800/735-4328
for service (see Page 34 for obtaining service).
• Note: During a normal Self-Clean and a Delayed
Self-Clean cycle, the door locks within 25 to 30
seconds after start is touched.
• Do not clean the door gasket. It is essential for
a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage, move or remove the door gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
liner protective coatings of any kind in or around
any part of the oven.
• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, all oven racks, other utensils and
excess soft spillage.
• Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard some-
times during the cleaning cycle. If no fan is heard,
call for service. See Page 34.
REGARDING PET BIRDS
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems.
Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms
where kitchen fumes could reach them. During
Self-Clean mode, fumes that may be harmful to
birds are released. Other kitchen fumes, such
as from overheating margarines and cooking
oils, may also be harmful.
Important Safety Instructions
Please read all instructions before using this appliance.
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.
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.
