Oven use
,
WARNING: Ovens can produce
high temperatures that can cause
burns.
Prevent children from touching the
appliance when in use.
Use heat-resistant oven mitts when
placing items in the oven, turning
them, or removing them from the oven.
The upper heating element and oven
racks can become very hot and cause
burns.
To prevent burns, always place
oven racks at their desired height
while the oven is cool.
Always open the door carefully.
Allow hot air or steam to escape
before placing or removing food.
To prevent burns, allow the heating
element to cool before cleaning by
hand.
Only clean parts listed in this
manual.
Caution: Heating elements may be
hot even though they are not
glowing. During and after use, do not
let clothing or other flammable
materials come in contact with heating
elements or interior surfaces of the
oven until they have had sufficient time
to cool. External parts of the oven such
as the door glass, vents, and control
panel can become hot.
The door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
The door gasket should only be
cleaned with a solution of warm water
and soap.
Do not block oven vents.
Do not let metal objects (aluminum
foil, metal pans) or the meat probe
come in contact with the heating
element.
Do not slide pots or pans on the
oven floor. This could scratch and
damage the surface.
Do not lean, sit, or place heavy
items on the open oven door.
Do not heat unopened containers
of food in the oven, as pressure
may build up and cause them to
explode.
Never add water to food on a hot
tray or pan or directly onto food in
a hot oven. The steam created could
cause serious burns or scalds.
This oven must only be used for
cooking. Do not use it as a dryer,
kiln, dehumidifier, etc. Due to the heat
generated in the catalytic converter of
the oven, any fumes or vapors given off
by glues, plastics or other non-food
items could ignite and cause property
damage or injury.
Flammable liquids and materials
should never be stored in, above
or under an oven, or near cooking
surfaces.
