9 WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or
passages in the oven bottom or
cover an entire rack with materials
such as aluminum foil. Doing so
blocks air flow through the oven.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard.
If materials inside an oven or warming
drawer should ignite, keep door closed.
Turn off the appliance and disconnect the
circuit at the circuit breaker box.
