Caution: Heating elements may be

hot even though they are not glowing.
During and after use, do not let clothing
or other flammable materials come in
contact with heating elements or interior
surfaces of the oven until they have had
sufficient time to cool. External parts of
the oven such as the door glass, vents,
and the control panel can become hot.

~

Do not block any vent

openings.

~

Aluminum foil should not be used to

line the oven floor. To avoid damage,
do not place pots, pans or baking
sheets directly on the oven floor.

~

Do not let metal objects (aluminum

foil, pans) come in contact with the
heating element.

~

Do not slide pots or pans on the

oven floor. This could scratch and
damage the surface.

~

Do not lean, sit, or place heavy

items on the open oven door.

~

Do not heat unopened containers of

food in the oven, pressure may build up
and cause them to explode.

~

Never add water to food on a hot

tray or pan, or directly onto food in a
hot oven. The steam created could
cause serious burns or scalds.

~

This oven must only be used for

cooking. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln,
dehumidifier, etc. Fumes or vapors
given off by glues, plastics or
flammable liquids and materials could
be hazardous.

~

Never store flammable liquids and

materials in, above or under an oven, or
near cooking surfaces.

~

When baking frozen pizzas or pies,

place them on the rack lined with
parchment paper. Do not use the
baking tray or the roasting pan for
frozen foods with a large surface area.
The tray or pan could become warped
and difficult to remove from the oven
when hot. Frozen food like french fries,
fish sticks, chicken fingers etc. can be
baked on the baking tray.

~

Always check that food is sufficiently

heated. The time required varies
depending on a number of factors,
such as initial temperature, quantity,
type and consistency of the food, and
changes in the recipe. Germs present
in the food are killed off only at a
sufficiently high temperature (> 158 °F /
70 °C) and after a sufficiently long time
(> 10 Min.). Select a longer cook time if
you are unsure if food is thoroughly
heated. To ensure temperature is
distributed evenly, stir and rotate food
occassionally before serving.
