WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING
■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the
fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off
or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
■ If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the
oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force
the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean
temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the
oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
severe burns.
WARNING
OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ Stand away from the oven when opening the oven
door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
■ Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
■ Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in
the oven may ignite.
■ Place oven racks in desired location while oven is
cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not
let pot holder contact hot heating element in oven.
■ When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven,
follow the manufacturer’s directions.
■ Pulling out the standard racks to their stop-locks
or the extension rack to its fully open position is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution
against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or
oven walls.
■ Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an
oven can ignite.
■ Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones,
or any type of foil or liner on the oven floor. These
items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the
product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
WARNING
SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow
these instructions for safe operation.
■ Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean
operation. Keep children away from the oven during
self-cleaning. Failure to follow these instructions may
cause burns.
■ Before self-cleaning the oven, remove shiny silver
colored oven racks (on some models), the probe, any
aluminum foil, and any broiler pan, grid, and other
cookware. Only porcelain coated oven racks may be
left in the oven.
■ Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and
food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease
may ignite, leading to smoke damage to your home.
■ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven
off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by
a qualified technician.
■ Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to
rub, damage or move the gasket.
■ Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
