be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, multipurpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher. Let fat cool
before attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease to collect around the oven or in vents. Wipe up spillovers
immediately.
• Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not drape towels or materials on
oven door handles. These items could ignite and cause burns.
• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholder touch hot surface areas. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• Keep area clean and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids. Never use your oven as a
storage space. Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items may become hot and cause burns.
• WARNING: French Door Models - DO NOT operate without control knobs in proper place. With the knobs removed,
the LED lights surrounding the knobs are visible and may cause permanent damage to the eyes.
• Do not heat unopened food containers; buildup of pressure may cause the container to explode and result in injury.
• Always position oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let
potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
• Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam
can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Keep oven vents unobstructed. The oven vent is located at the front of the oven and vents into the room.
• Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good tight seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the
gasket.
• No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating such as aluminum foil should be used in or around any
part of the oven. Improper oven liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. Keep oven free from grease buildup.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks, and other utensils. Do not use your oven to
clean other parts. A fan noise should be heard during the cleaning cycle. If not, call service before self-cleaning again.
• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF 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 heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns, such as the oven
vent opening, the surface near the vent opening, and the oven door window.
