• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• When cleaning door and oven surfaces, use only mild, non-abrasive soaps or
detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if paper, plastic,or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from plastic cooking bags before placing bags in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven
off, disconnect the power cord, or shut off the power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.

products, cooking utensils, or food in the oven when not in use.

becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or
extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

a. the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;

countertop or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.
