Important safety instructions
• Storage in or on the appliance. Do not store ammable
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-tting 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.
• Teach children not to play with the controls or any
other part of the range.
• For your safety, do not use high-pressure water
cleaners or steam jet cleaners.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly
qualied 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.
• Do not use water on grease res. Turn off the oven
to avoid spreading the ames. Smother the re or
ames by closing the door or use a dry chemical,
baking soda, or foam-type extinguisher.
• Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cooktops
or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass
breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken
glass. Shock, re, or cuts may occur.
• If there is a re in the oven during self clean, turn
the oven off and wait for the re to go out. Do not
force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-
clean temperatures may lead to a burst of ame
from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction 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 re.
• 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.
