WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe the
following precautions.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. To put out a grease fire, turn off the heat source and
smother the fire with a tight-fitting lid or use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
• If a grease fire should occur in the oven, turn off the oven by pressing the OFF/CLEAR
button. Keep the oven door closed until the fire goes out. If necessary, use a multipurpose
dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. The buildup of pressure may cause the containers
to burst and result in injury.
• NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may
result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven. Do not use the oven
for storage. Paper and other flammable items stored in the oven can ignite.
• Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.
Items stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not use the oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, newspapers can catch on fire.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE 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 the heating elements or interior surfaces of the 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, the oven door, and the window of the oven door.
