6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do Not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.
• Before replacing your oven light bulb, switch off the electrical power to the
oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so can result in
severe personal injury, death, or electrical shock.
PAN PLACEMENT
• Do not place food or cookware on the bottom of the oven cavity. Doing so will
cause permanent damage to the oven bottom finish.
• Never place plastic, paper, canned foods or combustible material in the oven.
• When cooking food in the lower oven drawer, always use a baking sheet or
pan with 4 raised sides. This will prevent food from sliding off.
DEEP FAT FRYERS
• Use extreme caution when moving or disposing of hot grease.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir together before heating.
• Use a deep fat thermometer, if possible, to prevent overheating fat beyond the
smoking point.
• Use the least possible amount of fat for effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling
the pan with too much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
SAFETY DURING USE
• Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
• If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the potholder
contact the hot heating element in oven.
• Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or
the center warming element. Cookware will be hot.
• Always use an oven mitt to remove the temperature probe after cooking.
• Use caution with the TIMED BAKE or DELAYED TIMED BAKE features. Use the
automatic timer when cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables.
Foods that can easily spoil, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled
in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more
than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when cooking
is complete. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.
