IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. UNPLUG FROM OUTLET WHEN NOT IN USE, before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning or handling.

3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

4. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord or plug, or place any part of the oven in water or other liquids. See instructions for cleaning on page 14.

5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any way or is not operating properly. Return the oven to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair, or mechanical or electrical adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart may cause injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop where it could be pulled on inadvertently by children or pets. Do not let cord touch hot surfaces, which could damage it.

10. Do not place oven on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

11. Do not use this oven for anything other than its intended purpose.

12. Do not place sealed or airtight containers in the oven.

13. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of materials other than metal, glass or ceramic in the oven.

14. To avoid burns, use extreme caution when removing trays, pans, racks, accessories or disposing of hot grease.

15. When not in use, always unplug the unit. Do not store any materials other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories in this oven.

16. Do not place paper, cardboard, plastic or similar products in the oven.

17. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven except the baking pan with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

18. Do not block the top of the oven, steam vents, or any other openings while in use.

19. Oversize foods, metal foil packages and utensils must not be inserted in the oven, as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock.

20. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touching flammable materials such as curtains, draperies, walls and the like when in operation. Do not store any items on top of the appliance when in operation. Do not operate under wall cabinets.

21. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electric shock.

22. Do not attempt to dislodge food when the oven is plugged into an electrical outlet.

23. CAUTION: To avoid possibility of fire, never leave oven unattended during use.

24. Do not rest cooking utensils or baking dishes on glass door.

25. Where applicable, always attach plug to appliance and check that the cooking cycle is stopped before plugging cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, press the Start/Stop button to stop the cooking cycle, then remove plug from wall outlet.

26. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.

27. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

28. Press the Start/Stop button to begin or stop cooking function.

SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over unintentionally or pulled on by children.

NOTICE

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
