Getting Started Information You Need To Know and oven accessories from the oven and be careful not to touch the oven cavity to prevent burns. • Use care when opening door. Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Always stand back from the oven when opening it. • Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish's covering and oven cooking bags away from the face. • Stay near the oven while it's in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food. • NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items. • Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria. • Use care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the door projection. • Do not touch around the oven light. This area will become hot when the oven light is on. • To avoid burns, always be careful of splashing grease from the baking tray when removing roasted or broiled meats from the oven. • To avoid burns, always test food and container temperature and stir before serving. Pay special attention to the temperature of containers, foods and drinks. Do not drink beverage or soup without checking the container's temperature. • Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, ventilation openings, accessories, dishes and the escaping steam from the air vent openings during operation because they will become hot. • Do not operate the oven if reservoir cracks and water leaks. Call an Authorized Service Centre to purchase a replacement part. • After use, condensed water may be inside oven cavity, especially on the oven floor. Dry any liquid residue with a sponge and wipe out to keep the oven clean. • Do not move the oven during the operation. If the oven needs to be moved, always drain all water inside the oven using the DRAIN WATER function (See page 24). After draining, empty the drip tray. • To prevent condensation, which could corrode the appliance, do not leave cooked food in the oven for an extended period. • Clean the oven at regular intervals and remove any food deposits in the oven or on the door. • Do not use for deep frying. • ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns. In Supersteam, Steam and Convection modes, cabinet, interior and door may be too hot to touch. • Do not pour cold water on the tempered glass oven floor after cooking as it might break. • Do not pour cold water on the door as it might break. • Do not touch hot surfaces. • The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries. • The oven should not be left unattended during operation. Oven temperatures that are too high or cooking times that are too long may overheat foods resulting in a fire. • Do not insert fingers or objects in the steam outlets or air vent openings. This may damage the oven and cause an electric shock or a hazard. • If any objects drop inside the air vent openings, turn off the oven immediately, unplug and consult an Authorized Servicer. • Do not touch the plug with wet hands when inserting or removing from the outlet. Plug securely into the electric wall receptacle and remove by gripping on the plug end. Never pull using just the cord. • During steaming, steam may come from the right side of the vent. • In the case of a grease fire, DO NOT USE WATER. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. • Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. • Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance. • Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury. • 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 heating element in oven. ABOUT CHILDREN • Children below the age of 7 should use the oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. • The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool. • At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door. • Children should be taught all safety precautions. • Don't assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
