Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven
bottom. Aluminum foil can cause a fire
and will seriously affect baking results.
Do not touch the interior surfaces of the
oven during or immediately after use. Do
not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact the bake or broil
elements. Although these surfaces may
be dark in color, they can still be hot
enough to burn.
Other areas of the oven can become hot
enough to cause burns, such as vent
openings, window, oven door and oven
racks.
Do not use the oven cavity for storage
space.
Never use strong abrasives, gritty
cleaners, oven liners, commercial oven
cleaners or steel wool to clean any part of
the range or the oven interior.
10. Do not drape towels or other materials on
the oven door handle. These items may
contact a element or become too hot and
ignite.
11. Do not use aluminum foil to cover the
broiler grid. The foil can trap grease on
top of the grid causing it to ignite.
12. Do not attempt to clean the oven door
gasket located on the inside of the oven
door. Cleaning the gasket may cause
damage. This gasket is required to seal
the oven.
