About Your Appliance
To prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the
appliance, NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat
or warm a room. Also, do not use the

ing utensils.
Do not obstruct the Bow of combustion
and ventilation air by blocking the oven

vent or air intakes. Restriction of air -
flow to the burner prevents proper per-
formance and increases carbon monox-
ide emission to unsafe levels.
Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for
several minutes after oven is turned off. Some parts of the
oven and surrounding area become hot enough to cause
burns. After oven is turned off, do not touch the oven vent
or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to
cool.
WARNING: NEVER use an appliance as a step to cabi-
nets above. Misuse of appliance doors, such as stepping,
leaning or sitting on the door, may result in possible tip-
ping of the appliance, breakage of door, and serious inju-
ries.
