IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
CHILD SAFETY
•
Do not touch the hot surface between the upper oven door and the lower oven door on the
front of the oven while the oven is in operation. The surface becomes hot and can cause
burns and other injury.
•
Do not leave small children unattended near the oven.
WARNING
Do not leave children alone
or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is
still hot. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as
they could be injured or burned.
•
Never let a child hang on the oven door.
•
Do not allow children to crawl into the oven.
•
Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children.
•
Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•
Multiple-rack cooking saves time and energy. Whenever possible, cook foods requiring the
same cooking temperature together in one oven.
•
For optimal performance and energy savings, follow the guides for proper rack and pan
placements.
•
Reduce energy use by cleaning light oven soils with the EasyClean
®
feature instead of
self-clean.
•
Avoid opening the oven door more than necessary during use. This helps the oven
maintain temperature, prevents unnecessary heat loss, and saves on energy use.
SAFETY DURING USE
•
Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
•
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved
while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating element in the oven.
•
Use caution with the Timed Cook or Delayed Timed Cook features. Use the automatic
timer when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that can
easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator
first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before
cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking is complete. Eating
spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.
•
Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use.
•
Do not place food or cookware on the bottom of the oven cavity. Doing so will cause
permanent damage to the oven bottom finish.
•
Do not use water on grease fires.
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed
and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire
extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can
spread a grease fire and cause personal injury.
•
Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven.
This helps prevent burns caused by touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
