6Food PreparationFollow these Safety Precautions when cooking in your oven.IMPORTANTProper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting  and quantity of food. If you use a smaller portion than recommended but cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could result.1)  HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS / SMALL    QUANTITIES OF FOODS•   DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. The food may be contaminated and then spoil.•   DO NOT use the oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.•   DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven. Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated.2) DEEP FAT FRYING•   DO NOT deep fat fry in your oven. Cooking oils may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and may result in burns.3) OVEN CAVITY FLOOR•   Cooking containers get hot during cooking. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Oven Cavity Floor. Use oven gloves when removing containers from the oven or when removing lids from cooking containers, to avoid burns.•   The Oven Cavity Floor will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed to cool before handling.4) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS•   DO NOT use paper towels or cloths that contain a synthetic fiber woven into them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to ignite. Use paper toweling under supervision.5) OVEN COOKING BAGS•   DO NOT use cooking bags, unless it is heat-proof.6) THERMOMETERS•   DO NOT put thermometers in your oven when cooking.  After cooking, verify food by an instant read thermometer. 7) BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD•   DO NOT heat baby formula or baby food in the oven.

32Care and Cleaning of Your OvenPlease see below and the following page for particular cleaning instructions for each section of the oven.BEFORE CLEANING: Unplug oven at the wall outlet. If outlet is inaccessible, leave the oven door open while cleaning.1.  Outside Oven Surfaces: Clean with a damp cloth or paper towel. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into ventilation openings.2.  Top of the Oven Cavity: This area has a self-clean catalytic lining. It is therefore not necessary to clean it. It can be wiped off.3.  Inside the Oven: Wipe with a damp cloth after using. Mild detergent may be used if needed. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives. Spray cleaner on cloth.4.  Oven Door: Wipe with a soft dry cloth when steam accumulates  inside or around the outside of the oven door. During cooking,  especially under high humidity conditions, steam is given off from  the food. (Some steam will condense on cooler surfaces, such as the oven door. This is normal.) Do Not remove the vapor barrier on the Oven door. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they may scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.5.  Oven Cavity Floor: Clean the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or window cleaner, and dry. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and warm water then dry with a clean cloth. Cooking vapours collect during repeated use but in no way affect the bottom surface.6.  Control Panel: The Control Panel is covered with a removable protective film to prevent scratches during shipping. Small bubbles may appear under this film, so if this is the case, remove by applying masking or clear tape to an exposed corner and pull gently. If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean it with a soft dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives. When cleaning the control panel, leave the oven door open to prevent the oven from accidentally turning on. After cleaning touch Stop/Reset Pad to clear the display window.7  Grill Pan: After using, clean with a mild detergent or dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean it. (Such as steel wool, etc.) Ensure the Grill Pan is kept clean, especially when using GRILL, COMBO, BAKE and AUTO COOK.8  Air Vents: Keep air vents clear at all times. Check that no dust or other material is blocking any of the air vents on the top, bottom or rear of the oven. If vents become blocked this could cause overheating which would affect the operation of the oven and possibly result in a hazardous situation.9  Drip Tray: Wash in warm soapy water. See page 8 for more information.AFTER CLEANING: Plug unit in and be sure the oven is clean and dry, and press Stop/Reset Pad to clear the Display.NOTES:1. After using GRILL, BROIL, COMBO, BAKE and AUTO COOK cooking, the walls of the oven should be cleaned with a soft cloth or paper towel sprayed with a non-abrasive cleanser. Particular care should be taken to keep the window area clean especially after cooking by  GRILL, BROIL, COMBO, BAKE and AUTO COOK. Stubborn spots inside the oven can be removed by using a small amount of branded conventional oven-cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe onto problem spots, leave for recommended time and then wipe off. DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.2. When cooking by  GRILL, BROIL, COMBO, BAKE and AUTO COOK some foods may splatter grease onto the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned to eliminate this grease, it can accumulate and cause the oven to ‘SMOKE’ during use. These marks will be more difficult to clean later. There is no need to clean the catalytic lining at the top of the oven cavity.3. Do Not use a steam cleaner for cleaning.  Do Not spray conventional oven-cleaner directly inside the oven.Tips:When oven is dirty, add ½ cup (4 FL oz) water into the Grill Pan. Put the Grill Pan directly on the oven cavity floor. Preheat oven on 450 °F. After preheating, let oven fully cool down. Wipe with a damp cloth.IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN AND DRY. FOOD RESIDUE AND CONDENSATION MAY CAUSE RUSTING AND DAMAGE TO THE OVEN. AFTER USE, WIPE DRY ALL SURFACES, INCLUDING VENT OPENINGS, AND OVEN SEAMS.314 5 62897
33Before Requesting ServiceSee below before calling for service, as most problems can easily be remedied by following these simple solutions:Problem SolutionThe oven causes TV interference.Some radio, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby monitor, blue tooth or other wireless equipment interference might occur when you cook with the oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven.Steam accumulates on the oven door and warm air comes from the oven vents.During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal. After use, the oven should be wiped dry (see page 32)I accidentally operated my oven without any food in it.Operating the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven, however, it is not recommended.There are humming and clicking noises from my oven when I cook using Combo.These noise occur as the oven automatically switches from Broil to Grill, to create the Combo setting. This is normal.The oven has an odour and generates smoke when using Bake, Broil Combo and Auto feature.It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after cooking Grill. Any fat and grease that builds up on the roof and walls of the oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned.
