IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Save these instructions for future reference.
•
Do not leave children alone - Children should not
be left alone or unattended in the area where
appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appli-
ance, including the storage drawer, lower broiler
drawer, warmer drawer, or lower double oven.
•
Stepping, leaning, or sitting on the door or
drawers of an oven can result in serious injuries
and also cause damage to the appliance.

Do not allow children to climb or play around the
oven. The weight of a child on an open oven
door may cause the oven to tip, resulting in
serious burns or other injury.

oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack
aluminum foil or any other materials. Doing so
may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

mportant Safety Notice - The California Safe
Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

power failure. If the power fails, always turn off
the oven. If the oven is not turned off and the
power resumes, the oven will begin to operate
again. Once the power resumes, reset the clock
and oven function.

WARNING
IMPORTANT
•
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up

Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher. Cover the fire with a pan
lid or use baking soda.
•
Use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot cooking areas. Do

contact hot surfaces of the oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the
appliance may become hot enough to cause
burns - among these surfaces are (identification

and surfaces near these openings, oven doors,
and windows of oven doors).
