Do not leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces, such as oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, and windows of oven doors, also get hot and may cause burns if not cooled.
Surface units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS or let clothing or other flammable materials contact surface units or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. This includes the cooktop and the area above the oven door.
Use care when opening the oven door. The hot air and steam that escape can cause burns to hands, face and eyes. Let hot air or steam escape from the oven before removing or replacing food in the oven.
Do not use plastic to cover food. Use foil or oven-safe lids only.
Never attempt to dry a pet in the oven.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the oven or the surface element. Cookware will be hot. Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let the pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth to remove food.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure in the containers may cause them to burst which may result in injury.
Be certain that all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating. Keep plastic, clothes, paper, and other flammable materials away from parts of the appliance that may become hot.
Do not allow aluminum foil or the temperature probe to contact heating elements.
Do not touch the hot surface between the bottom of the oven door and the top of the drawer on the front of the oven while the oven is in operation. The surface becomes hot and can cause burns and other injury.
Do not touch the oven racks while they are hot.
If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating element in the oven.
Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns caused by touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls.
Do not use the oven if a heating element develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating element may fail and present a potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service technician.
During oven operation, the upper surface of the drawer cavity becomes hot and may cause burns. Never allow children to remain unsupervised near the oven or cooktop.
Do not put your hand inside the drawer while the oven is operating.
Keep Oven Vent Duct Unobstructed. Areas near the vent may become hot during operation and may cause burns. Do not block the vent opening. Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may distort or melt the plastic.
