IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

Do not store items of interest to children in the

cabinets above the appliance. Children climbing on

the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.

• Do not leave children alone. Children should not

be left alone or unattended in the area where an

appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to

sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

• DO NOT TOUCH INTERIOR OVEN ELEMENTS OR

INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN UNTIL THEY

HAVE COOLED. The oven heating elements may be hot

even though the elements are dark in color. Areas near

the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or

other fl ammable materials touch these areas until they

have had suffi cient time to cool. Among these areas

are the oven vent openings, the surfaces near these

openings, oven door and window.

• Wear Proper Apparel. Loose-fi tting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the

appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable

materials contact hot surfaces.

WARNING

Never use your appliance for warming or heating

the room.

• Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires.

Smother the fi re with a pan lid, or use baking

soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat

or grease may catch fi re if allowed to become too hot.

Use Only Dry Pot holders. Moist or damp pot

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from

steam. Do not let the pot holders touch hot surface

units. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of

a pot holder.

Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers. Buildup

of pressure may cause the container to burst and

result in injury.

IMPORTANT

Do not attempt to operate the appliance during a

power failure. If the power fails, always turn off

the unit. If the unit is not turned off and the power

resumes, the appliance will not operate and an error

message will be displayed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR

USING YOUR OVEN

• Use Care When Opening an Oven Door—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. The wall oven

is vented at the center trim under the control panel.

Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is

operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place

plastic or heat-sensitive items near the oven vent. These

items could melt or ignite.

• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. Remove all utensils

from the rack before removing rack. If rack must be

moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use pot

holders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition.

Do not let pot holders contact the hot oven element or

interior of the oven.

Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler

pan and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away

from the high heat of the broiler.

Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom with

aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease could ignite.

Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp

cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break.

Disconnect the appliance or shut off the power to the

appliance before removing and replacing the bulb.

• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the

oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended

in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may

result in risk of electric shock, or fi re.
