Protective liners—Do not use aluminum
foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any
other materials or devices to line oven
bottom, oven racks, or any other part
of the appliance . Only use aluminum
as recommended for baking, such as
lining cookware or as a cover placed on
food . Any other use of protective liners
or aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire or a short circuit .
Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some
models) . Stand to the side of the appliance
when opening the door of a hot oven . Let
hot air or steam escape before you remove
or replace food in the oven .
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed .
Touching surfaces in this area when the
oven is on may cause severe burns . Do not
place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or
near the oven vent . These items can melt
or ignite .
Placement of oven racks - Always place
oven racks in desired location while oven

is hot, do not let potholder contact hot
burner or element in oven . Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to

Always cook in proper cookware and
