used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let
potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish
towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders
touch hot heating elements.

proper apparel while operating the appliance.

while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is
hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.
