IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Wear proper apparel. Loosefitting or hanging garments should never be
worn while using this appliance. Do not let
clothing or other flammable materials come
into contact with hot surfaces.
Do not heat unopened food
containers. Build-up of pressure may cause
container to burst and result in injury.
When heating fat or grease,
watch it closely. Grease may catch fire if it
becomes too hot.
Do not use water or flour on
grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher. Cover
the fire with a pan lid or use baking soda.
Use dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on hot surfaces may result
in burns from steam. Do not let potholders
touch hot cooking areas. Do not use towels or
other bulky cloths.
Do not touch heating elements or
interior surfaces of oven. Heating elements
may be hot and can cause burns even though
they are dark in color and appear to have
cooled. Other surfaces of the appliance may
become hot enough to cause burns such as
oven vent openings, oven doors, and windows
of oven doors.
Read and follow the below
instructions and precautions for unpacking,
installing, and servicing your appliance:
• Remove all tape and packaging before
using the oven. Destroy the carton and
plastic bags after unpacking the oven.
Never allow children to play with
packaging material.
• Remove the oven door from any unused
oven if it is to be stored or discarded.
• Be sure to have an appropriate foam-type
fire extinguisher available, visible, and
easily located near the appliance.
• Proper installation—Be sure your
appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 latest edition
and local electrical code requirements. In
Canada, install in accordance with CSA
Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical
code, Part 1, and local electrical code
requirements. Install only per installation
instructions provided in the literature
package for this oven.
• User servicing—Do not repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals. All
other servicing should be done only by a
qualified technician. This reduces the risk
of personal injury and damage to the
oven.
• Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified
technician and an authorized repair
service. Know how to disconnect the
power to the oven at the circuit breaker or
fuse box in case of an emergency.
• Never modify or alter the construction of
an oven by removing the leveling legs,
panels, wire covers, anti-tip brackets/
screws, or any other part of the oven.
• Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails,
always turn off the oven. If the oven is not
turned off and the power resumes, the
oven will begin to operate again. Once
the power resumes, reset the clock and
oven function.
• Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When using this appliance
for the first time, or when the appliance
has not been used for an extended period
of time, be sure the appliance has been in
temperatures above 32ºF (0ºC) for at
least 3 hours before turning on the power
to the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
• Never use your appliance for warming or
heating the room.
• Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some
models). Stand to the side of the oven
when opening the door of a hot oven. Let
hot air or steam escape before you
remove or replace food in the oven.
• Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
Touching surfaces in this area when the
oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not
place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or
near the oven vent. These items can melt
or ignite.
• Placement of oven racks - Always place
oven racks in desired location while oven
is cool. If rack must be moved while oven
in hot, do not let potholder contact hot
heating element in oven. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Remove all bakeware and
utensils before moving the rack.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat
to drain away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not cover the broiler insert with
aluminum foil; exposed fat and grease
could ignite.
• Protective liners - Do not use aluminum
foil to line surface unit drip bowls or oven
bottoms, except as suggested in the
manual. Improper installation of these
liners may result in a risk of electric shock,
or fire.
• Do not cook food on the oven bottom.
Always cook in proper bakeware and
always use the oven racks.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CLEANING YOUR OVEN
Before manually cleaning any
part of the oven, be sure all controls are
turned off and the oven is cool. Cleaning a
hot oven can cause burns.
Clean the oven regularly to keep all parts
free of grease that could catch fire. Do not
allow grease to accumulate.
Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended directions for use of kitchen cleaners
and aerosols. Be aware that excess residue
from cleaners and aerosols may ignite
causing damage and injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVENS (some models)
• Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
Before using self-clean, remove the broiler
pan, any food, utensils, and bakeware
from the oven. Remove oven racks unless
otherwise instructed.
• 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.
• Do not clean door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage, or
move the gasket.
• Some birds are extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-clean
cycle of any oven. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
Important Safety Notice - The California
Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act requires the governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harms, and it requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposures to such
substances.
Save these instructions for future reference.
