WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric
shock, or to prevent proper_/ damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide

during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a

ventilation fan or hood.
