persons who lack adult knowledge of appliances and
lack adult reactions to potentially harmful conditions.
Keep these individuals away during self-clean and
while the appliance is in use.

sufficient exposure. To minimize exposure to these
substances, provide good ventilation with an open
window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.
• Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms
where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-
