• Always use the drawer rack when using the
Lower oven.
- This will provide for some air space between the
drawer and the food.
• When cooking food in the Lower oven always
use a baking sheet or pan with 4 raised sides.
- This will prevent food from sliding off.
• Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
removing food from the Lower oven.
- You can be burned as cookware and plates will be
hot.
• Do not put food, foil or cookware directly on the
bottom of the Lower oven.
- This may result in damage to your drawer.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food.
- Plastic may melt onto the drawer or surrounding
areas. It is very difficult to clean. Only use
aluminum foil or a lid able to withstand the baking
temperature.
• Do not put liquid or water in the Lower oven.
• Never place plastics, paper, canned foods or
combustible material in the Lower Oven.
• Should a drawer fire occur, leave the drawer
closed and turn the drawer off. If the fire
continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use
a fire extinguisher.
• DO NOT put water or plain flour on the fire.
- Flour may be explosive and water can cause a
grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
