IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING

YOUR OVEN

Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil, after-

market 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 cool. If rack

must be moved 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 reposition. Remove all cookware and

utensils before moving the rack.

Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler

pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain away

from the high heat of the broiler. Do not cover the

broiler insert with aluminum foil; exposed fat and

grease could ignite.

Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always

cook in proper cookware and always use the

oven racks.

Do not heat unopened food containers - Build-

up of pressure may cause container to burst

and result in injury.

Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or hanging

garments should never be worn while using the

appliance. Do not let clothing or other

flammable materials contact hot surfaces.

Do not touch surface burners or elements,

areas near these burners or elements, interior

surfaces of the oven, or the warmer drawer (if

equipped). Surface burners and elements may

be hot even though they appear cool. Areas

near surface burners and elements may

become hot enough to cause burns. During and

after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other

flammable materials touch these areas until

they are cool. These areas may include the

cooktop, surfaces facing the cooktop, oven vent

areas, oven door, and oven window.

Do not attempt to operate the appliance during

a power failure. If the power fails, always turn off

the appliance. If the appliance is not turned off

and the power resumes, electric surface

elements may resume operation when power is

restored. Once the power resumes, reset the

clock and the oven function.
