m Important Safety Instructions

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

	Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy,
	bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of
	burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities
	of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
	Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be
	moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
	Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in
	burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a
	towel or other bulky cloth.
	Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not
	hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties,
	scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety	When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility
	of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation
	of the appliance by qualified persons.
	Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance,
	especially a door, warming drawer or storage drawer. This can damage the
	appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
	Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult.
	Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the
	appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or
	not the appliance is in use.
	CAUTION:
	Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above
	an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach
	items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety	Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
	fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from
	steam.

m Important Safety Instructions

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of Carbon Monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon Monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven. 3. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.

	Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
	Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems . Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or
	other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are
	released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating
	margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
	Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety	Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
	Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
	Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

Operation

About the Appliance

Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.

The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity.

The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.

Thanks to Self-Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self-Clean is done.

Clear labeling of the touch keys and knobs make operating the oven very easy. This manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.

Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions!

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

General Tips

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Aluminum Foil

m

WARNING:

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

For Best Results

Baking Pans and Dishes

High Altitude Baking

Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.

Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, Pie, Pizza, and Warm modes.

Preheat is not used for Roast, Convection Roast, and Proof.

Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.

Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.

Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.

Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.

Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently.

Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.

Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Therefore, reduce oven temperature 25 ºF when baking in glass.

Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden, brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.

Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.

Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time.

Do not set broil pan or any other heavy object on the open oven door.

Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.

When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.

For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.

English 16

Condensation

It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

Bake

tBake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.

The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.

Tips: Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.

Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.

For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1–1½" space between pans or dishes and oven walls.

Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.

If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cakes, use rack positions 3 and 5. For cookies, use rack positions 1 and 4. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below). You may also consider using a convection mode.

English 17

Convection Bake

Convection Bake is similar to Bake. Heat comes from the upper

áand lower heating elements. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

The Convection Bake mode is well suited for baked goods such as cookies, biscuits, breads and cakes. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. The benefits of Convection Bake include:

Use of multiple racks at one time.

Slight decrease in cook time.

Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).

Even browning.

Tips Reduce recipe temperature by 25 ºF. Refer to Convection Bake chart.

If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below).

Pie

á

In the Pie mode, heat from the upper and lower element is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Use Pie to cook fresh or frozen pies.

Tips: Baking times may slightly decrease when using this mode. Check pies earlier.

To prevent over browning, the pie edge may need to be covered with foil or a pie ring.

Use bleached all purpose flour or pastry flour for crusts. Cake or bread flour may yield weak or tough crusts.

For tender crusts, substitute a small amount of vinegar for part of the liquid.

For a flaky crust, make sure that ingredients are cold during preparation.

To prevent dough from shrinking during cooking, place crust in pie pan, wrap in plastic wrap and rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes before adding filling. Note: dough can be stored like this for up to two days.

The convection fan cycles on and off when using pie mode.

Pizza

á

In the Pizza mode, heat from the upper and lower elements is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.

Tips: For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack.

For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.

When proofing dough, coat dough with olive oil and cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.

Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.

If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.

If par-baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough with a fork before baking.

If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.

Preheat baking stones while the oven is preheating.

Bake homemade pizzas on rack position 2 in center of the rack.

Follow manufacturer’s directions for frozen pizza.

The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza mode.

English 20

Roast

Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the

toven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat from the upper element than the lower element. This results in more browning of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.

Roast is best suited for large cuts of meat and poultry.

Tips: Use a high-sided broil pan, or cover dish with a lid or foil.

Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or stock for flavor and moisture.

Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode.

When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.

Convection Roast

á

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.

The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.

The benefits of Convection Roast mode include:

As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection modes.

Rich, golden browning.

Tips: Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.

Check doneness early, since roasting time may decrease. Refer to Convection Roast chart for examples.

Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.

Use the broil pan and grid provided with the oven for roasting. A shallow, uncovered pan can also be used.

Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal temperature of the meat.

If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent overbrowning.

Let meat stand covered with foil 10–15 minutes after removing it from the oven.

Refer to chart for recommended rack positions.

Broil

Broil Chart

rBroil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.

The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed. The benefits of broiling include:

Fast and efficient cooking.

Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Tips: Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.

Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven.

Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.

Turn meats once during the recommended cook time (see Broil Chart for examples).

When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as Corningware ®.

Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.

Proof

tIn Proof, the oven uses the upper and lower elements to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or other yeast doughs.

Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.

The Proof mode temperature range is 85 ºF to 110 ºF.

The default temperature in the Proof mode is 100 ºF.

Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accommodates the size of the container.

Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check the rising of the dough.

Warm

In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low

t temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at serving temperature.

Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until ready to serve.

Warm mode temperatures are 140 ºF–220 ºF.

The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170 ºF.

Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.

m CAUTION:When using Warm mode, follow these guidelines:

Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.

Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends holding hot food at 140 ºF or warmer.

DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning

Self-Clean

During Self-Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.

IMPORTANT:

Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.

IMPORTANT:

Do not clean parts or accessories in the Self-Clean oven.

To set the self-clean mode:

1.Remove all accessories and racks from the oven.

2.Turn the Heating Mode Dial to Self Clean.

"Self Clean", "Cook Time" and the corresponding arrow appear in the display:

		Cook
		Time
		Self
					Cook
		Clean			Time
	3. Turn the settings dial to set the cleaning time. Select 2:30 hours for a heavily
	soiled oven. Select 1:30 hours for a lightly soiled oven.
	Self-Clean starts after a few seconds. The arrow next to Cook Time disappears
	and the oven door is locked.
	To cancel Self-Clean, turn Cooking Mode Dial to "Off".
	Once the oven is cool, "Self Clean" disappears and the arrow next to Cook Time
	reappears. The oven door is unlocked when “End” appears in the display.
	Wipe remaining ash from the oven using a moist cloth.
Note:	The oven light cannot be turned on during self-cleaning.
	The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished components in the oven can
	become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation. Do
	not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners to treat discolorations.
	In double oven models, Self Clean is only available for one oven at a time, and
	the other oven must be turned off.
Avoid These Cleaners	Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the
	oven finish or parts.

Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
