SAFETY INSTRaCTIONS
OVEN PRECACmONS
1. Never use your oven for warming or heating the room.
2. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-
type fire extinguisher.
3. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or
bulky cloth for a potholder. They could catch on fire.
4. Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing
food.
5. Always position oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved
while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
6. Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of oven. Heating elements may be
hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an 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 oven may become hot enough to cause
burns—among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these
openings, doors and windows.
7. Never let aluminum foil touch heating elements.
8. Never touch an oven light bulb with a damp cleaning cloth unless the power is turned
off to your oven and the bulb is cool to the touch.
9. Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause container to
burst and result in injury.
10. Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage, or move the gasket. Hand clean only areas recommended in this manual.
11. CAUTION:
Do not use oven cleaners in the Single/Upper Oven. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part
of the Single/Gpper Oven.
12. Before self-cleaning the Single/Gpper Oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks
and other utensils. (Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts.)
