SAFETY PRACTICES TO AVOID INJURY

When properly cared for, your oven will provide safe, reliable service for many years. However, extreme care must be used as the oven produces intense heat that can increase the risk of accidents.
When using this oven basic practices must be followed, including but not limited to the following:

• Do not repair or replace any part of the oven unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other services should be referred to a qualified technician.
• Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the oven is being used. Do not allow children to sit, stand or play around the oven at any time.
• Never let clothing or other flammables come in contact with or too close to any burner or hot surface until it has cooled. The fabric could ignite, causing serious personal injury.
• For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fittings garments or sleeves should never be worn while using the oven. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
• Do not heat unopened food containers as a build-up of pressure may cause the containers to burst. When lighting the burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing.
• When using the oven, do not touch the outer shell, stone baking board or immediate surroundings as these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.
• Do not use the oven to cook extremely fatty meats or other products which increases flare-up.
• Keep the area surrounding the oven free from combustible material including fluids, trash and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• Never use the oven in extremely windy conditions.
• The temperature under the oven is high. Do not place the oven on a table with flammable table cloths, plastic or any other inflammable materials.
