IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE
APPLIANCE
WARNING
Storage In or On Appliance—Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven or microwave, near
surface burners or elements, or in the storage or
warmer drawer (if equipped). This includes paper,
plastic, and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plastic
ware, and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do
not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or
near the appliance.
•
Do not leave children alone - Children should not
be left alone or unattended in the area where
appliance is in use. They should never be
allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appli-
ance, including the storage drawer, lower broiler
drawer, warmer drawer, or lower double oven.
•
Do not store items of interest to children in the
cabinets above the appliance or on the back-
guards of ranges. Children climbing on or near
the appliance to reach items could be seriously
injured.
•
Do not allow children to climb or play around the
appliance. The weight of a child on an open over
door may cause the appliance to tip, resulting in
serious burns or other injury. An open drawer
when hot may cause burns.
•
Stepping, leaning, or sitting on the door or
drawers of this appliance can result in serious
injuries and also cause damage to the appliance.
•
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with
any materials, such as aluminum foil or after-
market oven liners. Aluminum foil and other
liners may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
•
Do not use oven or warmer drawer (if equipped)
for storage.
•
Never use your appliance as a space heater to
heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of
the appliance.

CAUTION
•
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely.
Grease may catch fire if it becomes too hot.
•
Do not use water or flour on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher. Cover the fire with a pan
lid or use baking soda.
•
Use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot cooking areas. Do
not use towels or other bulky cloths.
•
Do not heat unopened food containers - Build-up
of pressure may cause container to burst and
result in injury.
•
Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
•
Do not touch surface burners or elements, areas
near these burners or elements, interior surfaces
of the oven, or the warmer drawer (if equipped).
Surface burners and elements may be hot even
though they appear cool. Areas near surface
burners and elements may become hot enough
to cause burns. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials touch these areas until they are cool.
These areas may include the cooktop, surfaces
facing the cooktop, oven vent areas, oven door,
and oven window.
•
Do not attempt to operate the appliance during a
power failure. If the power fails, always turn off
the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off
and the power resumes, electric surface
elements may resume operation when power is
restored. Once the power resumes, reset the
clock and the oven function.
