Safety and warnings
9
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an
entire rack or the oven floor with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks airflow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
Clean the appliance with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe
spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some
cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow
the directions of the cleaner manufacturer.
Never use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance.
Failure to follow this advice may result in poisoning or death.
Accessible parts may become hot during use.
Do not touch burners, areas near burners, the grill, griddle, grease drip-
pans, heating elements or interior surfaces of oven. These may be hot
enough to cause burns even though they are dark in color. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact these parts and surfaces until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Other parts and surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough
to cause burns - among these areas are the grates, back trim and oven
vents at the back of the cooktop, front edge, surfaces adjacent to the
cooktop, and the oven door.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it.
Failure to follow this advice could result in burns and scalds.
