IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
○○○○○○○○○○○○○
The following instructions are based on safety considerations
and must be strictly followed to eliminate the potential risks
of fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
Installation and Repair
• Have your appliance installed and properly grounded by
a qualified installer according to the installation instructions.
• To ensure proper operation and avoid possible injury or
damage to unit do not attempt to adjust repair, service, or
replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically
recommended in this book. All of the servicing should be
referred to a qualified installer or servicer.
To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
• Be sure all packing materials are removed from the ap-
pliance before operating it.
• Keep area around appliance clear and free from combus-
tible materials. Flammable materials should not be stored
in an oven.
• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics a way
from parts of the appliance that may become warm or
hot.
• T o prev ent grease fires, do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or near the appliance.
• Do not use the oven as a storage area for food or cooking
utensils.
• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when
exposed to heat and may be flammable. Avoid their use
or storage near the oven.
• Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils
in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out
of reach of small children. Children should be taught
that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be
allowed to play with controls or other parts of the unit.
• CAUTION: NEVER store items of interest to children
in cabinets above an appliance. Children climbing on
the appliance or on the appliance door to reach items
could be seriously injured.
About Y our Appliance
• To prevent potential hazard to the
user and damage to the appliance,
never use appliance to heat or warm
a room.
• Do not obstruct the flow of air by
blocking the oven vent.
• DO NOT T OUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTE-
RIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may
be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of any oven become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or
other flammable materials contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are: oven vent openings and surfaces near these
openings, oven doors, windows of oven doors.
• CAUTION: NEVER use an appliance as a step to reach
cabinets above. Misuse of appliance doors, such as stepping, leaning or sitting on the door, may result in possible tipping of the appliance, breakage of door, and
serious injuries.
In Case of Fire
• Use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher or baking
soda to smother fire or flame. Nev er use water on a grease
fire.
1. Turn off appliance to avoid spreading the flame.
2. NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
3. Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door.
Child Safety
• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the
appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
• Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp c loth as
the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power to the appliance before removing bulb to
avoid electrical shock.
• A fan should be heard during some bake, con vect bake,
and all broil and cleaning operations. If you do not hear
the fan, call an authorized servicer.
• NEVER use aluminum foil to cover an oven rack or
oven bottom. Misuse could result in risk of electric
shock, fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only as
directed in this guide. Do not allow aluminum foil to
contact heating element.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
○○○○○
Cooking Safety
• NEVER heat an unopened food container in the oven. Pres-
sure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.
• Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause
burns from steam. Dish towels or other substitutes should
never be used as potholders because they can trail across
hot elements and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.
• NEVER wear loose fitting or long hanging-sleev ed apparel
while cooking. Clothing may ignite and cause burns if garment comes in contact with heating elements.
• Always place ov en racks in the desired
positions while oven is cool. If a rack
must be moved while hot, use a dry
potholder. Do not let potholder contact
hot element in oven.
• Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
• PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manu-
facturer’s instr uctions. If a plastic frozen food container and/
or its cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged during
cooking, immediately discard the food and its container.
The food could be contaminated.
• Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.
Utensil Safety
• Follow the manuf acturer’s directions when using ov en cook-
ing bags.
• This appliance has been tested for safe performance using
conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accessories that are not specifically recommended in this manual.
Do not use add-on oven convection systems. The use of
devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended
in this guide can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components
of the appliance.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earth-
enware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for oven service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions when
using glass.
Cleaning Safety
• T urn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool
before touching or cleaning. Clean with caution. Use
care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
• Clean only parts listed in this guide.
Self-Clean 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.
• Do not use oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind in
or around any part of the self-clean oven.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remov e broiler pan, oven
racks and other utensils, and wipe off excessive
spillovers to prevent excessive smoke or flare ups.
• CAUTION: NEVER leave food or cooking utensils,
etc. in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Important Safety Notice
and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor
of California to publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential e xposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the
oven is engaged in the self-clean cyc le, there may be some
low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances
can be minimized by properly venting the ov en to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room
where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS:
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the
fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a v ery sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven
self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes
released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, mar garine and
overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
