SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Be sure the oven is securely installed in
a cabinet that is firmly attached to the
house structure. Never allow anyone
to climb, sit, stand or hang on the
oven door.

Never leave the oven door open when
you are not watching the oven.

Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your oven.

holders and other linens a safe distance
from your oven.

Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away
from your oven.

Teach children not to play with the
controls or any other part of the oven.

Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.

an oven.

extinguisher.
