IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING YOUR LOWER OVEN
• Use Care When Opening an Oven Door—
Stand to the side of the appliance when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or
steam escape before you remove or replace
food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The
wall oven is vented at the upper control panel
or at the center trim depending of the model.
Touching the surfaces in this area when the wall
oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also,
do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items near
the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
• Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven
racks in desired location while oven is cool.
If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use
extreme caution. Use pot holders and grasp
the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not
let pot holders contact the hot oven element or
interior of the oven. Remove all utensils from
the rack before removing rack.
• Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler
n and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be
:ept away from the high heat of the broiler.
• Do not cover the broiler grid or oven bottom
with aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease
could ignite.

damp cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to
break. Disconnect the appliance or shut off the
power to the appliance before removing and
replacing the bulb.
