IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
• The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act requires the
Governor of California to publish a list
of substances known to the state to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposure to such
substances.
• The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens
gives off a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle.
Exposure can be minimized by venting
with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.
•
IMPORTANT:
The health of
some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes
given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated
room.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using your electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:
• Be sure all packing materials are removed
from the oven before operating it to prevent
fire or smoke damage should the packing
material ignite.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this Owner’s Manual.

and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• 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.
• Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part
of your wall oven unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual.
All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the oven.
• Never leave the oven door open when you
are not watching the oven.

holders and other linens a safe distance from
your oven.
• For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.

and canned food a safe distance away from
your oven.
