SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom.

Foil may trap heat from the bottom heating
element, resulting in a risk of electrical shock, fire,
or product damage.

‡&RRNPHDWDQGSRXOWU\WKRURXJKO\³meat to

at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and
poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of
180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually
protects against foodborne illness.

• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT

THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL
BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF THE
CIRCUIT BREAKER.

‡'RQRWOHDYHFKLOGUHQDORQH³children should

not be left alone or unattended in an area
where an appliance is in use. They should never
be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.

• Do not touch the heating elements or the

interior surface of the oven. These surfaces
may be hot enough to burn even though they
are dark in color. During and after use, do
not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact, any interior area of the oven;
allow sufficient time for cooling first.

Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent
openings and surfaces near the openings,
crevices around the oven door, the edges of the
door window and metal trim parts above the
door.

Remember: The inside surface of the oven may
be hot when the door is opened.

heating elements. Do not use a towel or other

of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in the
broiler pan can catch fire the next time you use
the pan.
