WARNING - IN CASE OF FIRE
In the event of a fi re, never pick up a fl aming pot
or pan. Turn the burner off if it is safe to do so.
Extinguish the fi re with a dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
Do not use water on grease fi res. Water will spread
the grease and will not extinguish the fi re. Smother
the fi re with a tight fi tting pot lid, cookie sheet or fl at
tray or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
If there is a fi re in the oven during baking, smother
the fi re by closing the oven door and turning
the oven off or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
OVEN SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Use care when opening the door. Allow hot air or
steam to escape before removing or replacing food.
Do not heat unopened food containers. Build up of
pressure may cause the container to burst and result
in injury.
Keep oven vents unobstructed.
Always place oven racks in the desired location
while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved
while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder
contact the hot heating element in the oven.
Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when
loading and unloading food from the oven. This
helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces of
the door and oven walls.
Do not use the oven if a heating element develops
a glowing spot during use or shows other signs
of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating
element may fail and present a potential burn, fi re,
or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and
have the heating element replaced by a qualifi ed
service technician.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of burns, do not move this
appliance while it is hot. To reduce the risk of
injury due to tipping of the appliance, verify
the re-installation of this appliance into the anti-
tipping device provided and lock the casters after
returning the appliance to the original installed
position.
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR
AREAS NEAR THEM
Heating elements on the surface or in the interior
of the appliance may be hot even though they are
dark in colour. Areas near the heating elements
may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use do not touch or let clothing or other
fl ammable materials contact the heating elements
or areas near them until they have had suffi cient
time to cool. Surfaces of the appliance may
become hot enough to cause burns, among them
are the oven vent openings and surfaces near
these openings, oven doors and oven windows.
