IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. UNPLUG FROM OUTLET WHEN NOT IN USE, before putting on or
taking off parts and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning or
handling.
3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
4. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord or plug, or place
any part of the oven in water or other liquids. See instructions for
cleaning on page 14.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any
way or is not operating properly. Return the oven to the nearest Cuisinart
Repair Center for examination, repair, or mechanical or electrical
adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart may
cause injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop where it
could be pulled on inadvertently by children or pets. Do not let cord touch
hot surfaces, which could damage it.
10. Do not place oven on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated
oven.
11. Do not use this oven for anything other than its intended purpose.
12. Do not place sealed or airtight containers in the oven.
13. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed
of materials other than metal, glass or ceramic in the oven.
14. To avoid burns, use extreme caution when removing trays, pans, racks,
accessories or disposing of hot grease.
15. When not in use, always unplug the unit. Do not store any materials other
than manufacturer’s recommended accessories in this oven.
16. Do not place paper, cardboard, plastic or similar products in the oven.
17. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven except the baking pan
with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
18. Do not block the top of the oven, steam vents, or any other openings
while in use.
19. Oversize foods, metal foil packages and utensils must not be inserted in
the oven, as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock.
20. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touching flammable materials
such as curtains, draperies, walls and the like when in operation. Do not
store any items on top of the appliance when in operation. Do not operate
under wall cabinets.
21. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and
touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electric shock.
22. Do not attempt to dislodge food when the oven is plugged into an
electrical outlet.
23. CAUTION: To avoid possibility of fire, never leave oven unattended
during use.
24. Do not rest cooking utensils or baking dishes on glass door.
25. Where applicable, always attach plug to appliance and check that the
cooking cycle is stopped before plugging cord into wall outlet. To
disconnect, press the Start/Stop button to stop the cooking cycle, then
remove plug from wall outlet.
26. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall
cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage always unplug the unit from
the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if
the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit
as it closes.
27. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot
oil or other hot liquids.
28. Press the Start/Stop button to begin or stop cooking function.
