and the oven door and window, could also become hot
enough to cause burns.
Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the
oven. They could ignite if they touch a hot heating
element and you could be burned.
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 bulky cloth for a potholder. It could catch on fire.
