interior surface of the oven. These surfaces
may be hot enough to burn even though they
are dark in color. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact, any interior area of the
oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent
openings and surfaces near the openings,
crevices around the oven door, the edges of

• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the oven.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with oven heating
elements and may cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let pot holders
touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth.
• Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Stand away from the oven when opening the
oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in the
broiler pan can catch fire the next time you use
the pan.
• Large scratches or impacts to glass doors can
lead to broken or shattered glass.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or
near your oven.
