Burn Prevention
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS - 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, or let
clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact surface units or
areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these
areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
• 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, potholders, or other flammable materi-
als contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot
enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, sur-
faces near these openings and oven doors.
• Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the
door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep
your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets
near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your
cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes.
Do not leave open doors unattended.
• Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may
cause the container to burst and cause injury.
• Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must
be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e.
Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
• Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bub-
bling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting.
Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
• Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
• Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy,
bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a
risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only
small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Child Safety • When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal respon-
sibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in
safe practices by qualified persons.
WARNING:
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this
manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat
or warm a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poi-
soning and overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance
WARNING:
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven
and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
