IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE INSIDE THE OVEN
• Do not store flammable materials in or near the oven.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Smother fire or use a dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
• It is highly recommended that a fire extinguisher be readily available and highly visible
next to any cooking appliance.
• Do not overcook food. Carefully oversee oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven.
• Do not use the oven for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils,
or food in the oven when not being used.
• If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep the door closed. Turn oven off and
disconnect the circuit at the circuit breaker box.
• Be sure the cooling fan runs whenever the oven is in operation. If the fan does not operate,
do not use the oven. Call an authorized service provider.
• NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may
result in carbon monoxide poisoning.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children
and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use.
Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the oven.
• For personal safety, wear proper clothing. Loose-fitting clothes or garments with hanging
sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance.
• Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.
• Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of 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 or the interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient
time to cool.
• Please note that 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.
