• If there is a fire in the oven during self-cleaning, turn the oven off and wait for
the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. The introduction of fresh air at
self-cleaning temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in severe burns.
• If the oven is heavily soiled with oil, self-clean the oven before using the oven
again. Leaving the oil in place creates a risk of fire.
• Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom with a paper tower or rag before self-
cleaning. Self-cleaning the oven when there is heavy soil on the oven bottom
requires longer cleaning cycles and produces more smoke.
• Storage in or on the appliance. Do not store flammable materials in the oven
or near the surface units. Be sure all packing materials are removed from the
appliance before operating it. Keep plastics, clothes, and paper away from parts
of the appliance that may become hot.
• Wear proper apparel. Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using
the appliance.
• Use only dry potholders. Placing moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let the potholder touch hot heating elements.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
• Teach children not to play with the controls or any other part of the oven.
• For your safety, do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam jet cleaners to
clean any part of the oven.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent, or similarly qualified persons to avoid creating a hazard.
• The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
