Important Safety Instructions

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers. Buildup of

pressure may cause the container to burst and result
in injury.

IMPORTANT

Do not attempt to operate the appliance

during a power failure. 

If power fails, always turn off the

appliance. If the appliance is not turned off and the power
resumes, it will begin to operate again. Once the power
resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN

• Use Care When Opening an Oven Door

—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.

• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. 

The wall oven is

vented at the upper control panel or at the center trim
depending of the model. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the wall oven is operating may cause severe
burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items
near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Placement of Oven Racks. 

Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils
from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot
holders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition.
Do not let pot holders contact the hot oven element or
interior of the oven.

Do not use your broiler pan without its insert. 

Broiler

pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.

Do not cover broiler grid or oven bottom with
aluminum foil. 

Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth.

Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or shut off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing the bulb.

• Protective liners

—Do not use aluminum foil to line the

oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in
this manual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR OVEN

• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch fire. 

Exhaust fan ventilation

hoods and  grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan
could catch fire. Refer to the hood manufacturer's
instructions for cleaning.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN MODELS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts of the

appliance listed in this Owner's Guide.

 Before using the

self-cleaning cycle of the appliance, remove all utensils
stored in the appliance.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket.

 The door gasket is

essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or move the gasket.

• Do not use oven cleaners.

 No oven cleaner or oven liner

protective coating of any kind should be used in or around
any part of the appliance

 The health of some birds is extremely

sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-clean cycle
of any wall oven. Move birds to another well ventilated
room.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause
cancer, birth defects or other productive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
