(2) Do not place any object between the oven front face 
and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to 
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(3) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is 
particularly important that the oven door close properly 
and that there is no damage to the:
door (bent)
hinges and latches (broken or loosened)
door seals and sealing surfaces.
(4) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by 
anyone except properly qualified service personnel. 
Improper installation, service or maintenance can cause 
injury or property damage.  Refer to this manual for
