discolored, cooking times may need to be reduced slightly.

High altitude Air is drier and air pressure is

lower.

Water boils at a lower temperature, and liquids evaporate faster.

Foods may take longer to bake.

Doughs may rise faster.

If food is too dark or overcooked, use the minimum cook time in the recipe or packaging.

If food is too light or undercooked, use the middle to maximum cook time in the recipe or packaging.

Adjust cooking temperature, cooking time, or recipes as needed.

Increase amount of liquid in baking recipes.

Increase cook time on cooktop. Cover dishes to reduce evaporation.

Increase bake time or oven temperature.

Reduce amount of baking soda or baking powder in recipe. Reduce rising time or punch down dough and allow it to rise twice.

Cooking Results

Small adjustments may help you achieve the best results.

Result Recommendation

Food too light Use the middle to maximum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.

Food too dark Use the minimum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.

Cooking Tips

Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.

Situation Recommendation

Baking

Rack placement Follow the instructions in particular oven mode starting in “Setting Oven Con-

trols” on page 20.

Preheat Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and

breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.

Checking food Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may

reduce baking performance.

Bake or Convection Bake Convection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For

best performance, see.”Convection Bake” on page 24

Steam Bake For directions, tips, and beneﬁ ts of Steam Bake see “Steam Bake” on page

Preheat the oven for best results.

meats and poultry.

Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended. Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations, adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.

Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.

Use the meat probe included with your appliance. Meat probes are also available from most grocery and home goods stores.

Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.

Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

IMPORTANT

Your Frigidaire wall oven has many features that allow you to customize the way your oven works.

Take time to read this section for important safety information and to become familiar with the many menu option settings starting on page

15.

Oven Vent Location

The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close o the openings with aluminum foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.

CAUTION

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks will lose their shiny ﬁ nish.

To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully positioned back inside the oven cavity.

Types of Oven Rack

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

WARNING

Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other parts of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. During self-clean temperatures the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.

Removing and Replacing the Glide Racks

The fully extendable Glide rack makes food preparation easier. This oven rack has glide tracks that allow the rack to be pulled away from the oven without rubbing the sides of the oven wall.

To remove - Make sure the baking rack is in the closed position. Using one hand, reach through handle opening and grasp both the upper and lower bars of the glide rack.

Using both hands, lift up the front of the rack slightly and continue to pull the rack away from the oven. Be sure to grasp both upper and lower rack portions together when removing or handling the glide rack.

The rack portions move independently and are di cult to handle unless held together.

To replace - Make sure the baking rack is in the closed position. Grasp both upper and lower portions of glide rack. Lift and hold the rack level between the oven cavity walls. Tilt the front of the rack upward slightly and slide the rack completely into position.

To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully positioned back inside the oven cavity.

While holding both sections, pull the glide rack out of the oven until the stop position is reached.

IMPORTANT

Remove all oven racks and clean according to instructions provided in the Care & Cleaning section of this manual. Never pick up hot oven racks or parts.

Convection Bake

Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat uniformly around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and browning results. Heated air ﬂ ows around the food from all sides.

Convection bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) and 550°F (288°C).

Beneﬁ ts of convection cooking include:

• Multiple rack baking. Convection baking tips:

• Use Convection Bake for best results when baking cookies and cakes on 2 racks.

• For best results it is recommended to preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits and breads and move pans to front of the racks.

• If your recipe is not written for convection baking, reduce the oven temperature by 25° or use Convection Convert option.

• No special pans or bakeware required.

• For cookies use the following racks:

• Single rack baking use 3 (ﬂ at rack).

• Two rack baking use 2 (ﬂ at) and 5 (glide).

• For baking cakes use the following rack positions and place bakeware as shown in Figure 4. In upper rack use position 4 (glide) or 5 (ﬂ at).

• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food items baked on pans with a dark ﬁ nish will cook faster.

• Leave oven lights o while baking.

Convection Convert

Convection Convert automatically reduces the oven temperature from what is speciﬁ ed in most baking recipes to compensate for the increased cooking e ciency of convection baking.

Air Sous Vide

Air Sous Vide is ideal for cooking meats to achieve tenderness without overcooking.

How Sous Vide Works

Sous vide is a French phrase meaning “under vacuum”. In sous vide cooking, food is vacuum-sealed in plastic pouches, which are then placed in a cooking medium of hot water or air.

Your appliance uses hot air circulating around sealed pouches to cook food slowly at relatively low temperatures: 100°F to 205°F (38°C to 94°C). Sous vide cooking is not fast, but with a little planning, it can be very easy.

Advantages of Sous Vide

• Food does not lose ﬂ avor or aroma due to evaporation.

• Vitamins and minerals do not escape during cooking.

• The low cooking temperature leaves meat and ﬁ sh more tender.

• Less spice is needed, as food keeps more of its natural ﬂ avor.

• The low cooking temperature greatly reduces the risk of overcooking. The food never gets hotter than the intended serving temperature.

• Timing is less critical. If di erent dishes are ﬁ nishing at di erent times, food that has reached serving temperature can wait, since it stays at serving temperature in the cooking medium.

Food Safety

Because sous vide cooks at relatively low temperatures, safe food handling is especially important.:

• Always keep raw food in safe conditions before you start cooking.

• Clean the raw food before you start cooking.

• Use Table 1, “Recommended Sous Vide Cook Settings,” to ﬁ nd the recommended cooking time and temperature for the food.

• Only use temperatures below 140°F (60°C) to cook foods that can be safely eaten raw.

• Food should be between 34°F and 37°F (normal refrigerator temperatures) when preparing to place food in sous vide vacuum pouch.

• Sous vide dishes are best served immediately after cooking. If food is not served immediately, use an ice bath to chill it quickly and then keep it refrigerated for up to 3 days.

• Do not use sous vide to reheat leftovers.

• Do not allow raw food to contact cooked food during preparation. Do not use the same tools on di erent food items without washing them.

• If the recipe includes raw eggs, keep the whites and yolks from touching the outsides of the shells.

• Blanching in boiling water or searing in a pan before sous vide cooking can destroy surface bacteria to improve food safety.

• Do not use Delay Start with the Sous Vide function.

• Do not use a meat probe with the Sous Vide function. Food needs to be sealed air-tight in a pouch for sous vide cooking.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Vacuum Sealing

Sous vide cooking in your oven requires a vacuum sealer and vacuum pouches. The pouch needs to be sealed so no air or liquid can leak out. A pouch that leaks will produce poor cooking results and may produce smoke and residue that can burn during future cooking or when using self-clean. Follow the instructions that come with your sealer and pouches.

• Use pouches that are speciﬁ ed for your sealer and for sous vide cooking.

• Do not reuse vacuum pouches.

• Put food in one layer in the pouch for even cooking.

• It is recommended to use one food portion per vacuum pouch.

• For most sous vide cooking, use the highest vacuum setting for best cooking results.

• Make sure that the closure of the pouch is clean to get a good seal. If cooking at higher temperatures (above 160º F / 71º C), double-seal the pouch.

• Vacuum pouches are solely for sous vide cooking and should not be used for regular baking or broiling.

Sous Vide Cooking

1. Prepare

• Start with the freshest, highest quality food possible.

• Clean and cut the ingredients.

2. Package

• Place the ingredients in the plastic pouch for your vacuum sealer. Add seasonings for cooking.

• Note: If cooking multiple items at once, you may want to write the contents on the outside of the pouches before ﬁ lling and sealing them.

• Vacuum seal the pouch, removing as much air as possible. Verify that you have achieved an air-tight seal.

• If not cooking immediately, store the pouch in a refrigerator until ready to cook.

To cook Air Sous Vide:

1. Touch Oven Modes and scroll to Slow Cook, then choose Air Sous Vide from the sub-menu.

2. Touch Air Sous Vide: display shows 130°F (54°C) setting as default.

3. Set desired temperature.

4. Touch START.

IMPORTANT: Since sous vide cooking allows for a suggested minimum cooking time and a target time, it is recommended to set the timer to at least the minimum time or to any time up to the target suggested time. With sous vide cooking, there is a maximum cooking time which allows the user more ﬂ exibility when cooking with no speciﬁ c end time.

Note: Use the settings recommended for the type of food in Table 3 on page 28.

5. Finish

• Open the plastic pouch and remove the food.

• You may ﬁ nish the food with a ﬁ nal searing or grilling to achieve a nice crust and roast ﬂ avor.

• Add ﬁ nal seasonings or sauces if needed.

• Serve.

CAUTION

Even though sous vide cooks at relatively low temperatures, use care when handling the pouch and its contents, which will be hot to the touch.

Only use temperatures below 140°F (60°C) for cooking foods that can be safely eaten raw.

IMPORTANT

The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef medium 160°F, well done 170°F (77°C). Visit the USDA Food Safety and Inspection website at www.fsis. usda.gov.

Slow Cook

Use Slow Cook for foods that will cook or braise at low temperature for a long period of time.

For best results when using Slow Cook:

• Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking.

• When using a single oven rack, place in oven rack position 2 or 3. Position racks to accommodate the size of various bakeware when cooking multiple food items.

• Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the Slow Cook time may need to be extended.

• Cover to keep foods moist or use a loose or vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.

• Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur. Cook times will vary depending on the weight, fat content, bone, and the shape of the roast. Preheating the oven will not be necessary when using the Slow Cook feature.

• Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour.

Slow cooking meats may result in the outside of the meat turning dark; this is normal.

To set Slow Cook:

1. Touch Oven Modes and scroll to Slow Cook, then choose Slow Cook from the sub-menu.

2. The display shows 175°F (79°C) setting as default. Use the numbered keys to program a di erent temperature if desired. Touch START.

3. The screen shows the current temperature and a Cook Time button.

Convection Roast

Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and elements to rapidly roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, sealing in juices and ﬂ avors. Meats cooked with this feature are crispy and brown on the outside while staying moist inside.

WARNING

Should an oven ﬁ re occur, close the oven door and turn the oven o . If the ﬁ re continues, use a ﬁ re extinguisher. Do not put water or ﬂ our on the ﬁ re. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease ﬁ re to spread and cause personal injury.

CAUTION

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

To use convection roast at a temperature of 350°F (177°C):

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Convection Roasting tips:

• Preheating for convection roast is not necessary for most meats and poultry.

• Arrange oven racks so meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.

• Since convection roast cooks faster, may be able to reduce cook times as much as 25% from the recommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.

• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

• When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Self Clean

A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures), which vaporizes soils or reduces them to a ﬁ ne powdered ash you can wipe away afterwards with a damp cloth. This function can be programmed for clean times between 2 and 4 hours.

Important: Before starting self clean read all following caution and important statements before starting a self clean cycle.

CAUTION

• Do not leave small children unattended near appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot and cause burns if touched.

• Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bottom, or any part of the range with aluminum foil. This will cause permanent damage to the oven interior and destroy heat distribution, and will melt to the oven interior.

• Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the oven door after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to side of oven when opening door to allow steam or hot air to escape.

• The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to fumes given o during the self clean cycle of any range. Move birds to a well ventilated room.

• Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before starting a self clean cycle. To clean use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or ﬁ re when subjected to high temperatures.

• Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie ﬁ llings) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven material in the gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket and compromise the performance of the oven.

• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust hood during the ﬁ rst self clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors.

Important notes:

• Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor.

• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.

• Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (page 38). These areas heat su ciently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to starting Self Clean.

Figure 7: Clean around the oven door gasket

• Do not attempt to open the oven door when the OVEN LOCK indicator light is ﬂ ashing. Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock the oven door.

• When the clean time ﬁ nishes, the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled sufﬁ ciently. In addition to the clean time that was programmed, you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

To set a self clean cycle:

1. Be sure the oven is empty and all oven racks are removed. Remove all items from the oven. Be sure oven door is completely closed.

• Before restarting self clean, be sure to read important notes below.

Important notes

• If self clean was active and then interrupted by a power failure or canceled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run another self clean cycle.

• If the oven temperature was high enough when self clean was interrupted the oven control may not allow another self clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Steam Clean

The Steam Clean feature o ers a chemical free and time saving method to assist in the routine cleaning of small and light soils. For heavier baked on soils use the Self Clean feature.

CAUTION

Do not add bleach, ammonia, oven cleaner, or any other abrasive household cleaners to the water used for Steam Clean.

Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned o and the oven is cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.

Be sure the oven is level and cool before starting Steam Clean. If the oven temperature is above room temperature a triple beep will be heard and the function will not start. Steam Clean produces best results when started with a cool oven.

To set a Steam Clean cycle:

1. Remove all racks and oven accessories.

2. Scrape or wipe loose debris and grease from the oven bottom.

3. Pour 1 cup of tap water onto the oven bottom. Close oven door.

8. Take care opening the door when the steam clean is ﬁ nished. Stand to the side of the oven out of the way of escaping vapor.

9. Wipe oven cavity and bottom. Do not clean oven door gasket. Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning cavity.

Figure 9: Clean around the oven door gasket

Notes:

• Opening the oven door during the steam clean cycle prevents the water from reaching the temperature needed to clean.

• A non-abrasive scouring pad, stainless steel sponge, plastic scraper, or eraser style cleaning pad (without cleaner) can be used for di cult soils. Moisten pads with water before use.

• Place a paper towel or cloth in front of the oven to capture any water that may spill while wiping out.

• Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time.

• Some condensation or water vapor may appear close to the oven vent and the oven door glass. This is normal. The oven gasket may become damp; do not wipe dry.

• Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water). If hard water deposits occur, wipe cavity with a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar or 50/50 solution of lemon juice and water.

• Steam clean cannot be programmed with a delayed start time.

• If Steam Clean results are not satisfactory, run a Self Clean. See “Self Clean” on page 38.

Cooking with Food Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.

The Food Probe works with the following oven modes: Bake, Convection Bake, Air Fry, Convection Roast, Steam Roast, and Turkey.

The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature. The probe settings for how the oven behaves should be set ﬁ rst in the oven menu.

When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food.

To set Food Probe: Touch Oven Modes, scroll to Food Probe and follow directions on the display.

Proper placement of probe in food.

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the center of the thickest part of meat or food. For best results, do not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.

Setting the Sabbath Feature for the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays (some models)

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at www.star-k. org.

This appliance provides special settings for use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath mode disables all audible tones or visual display changes on the oven control. Bake is the only cooking feature available while in the Sabbath mode. Most oven controls are locked during Sabbath mode.

To start Sabbath Mode, ﬁ rst select Sabbath from the settings menu. Next, select Delay (if desired), Bake temperature, and cook time (if desired) and set. Cooking will begin after any speciﬁ ed delay.

If cook time was set, once the time has elapsed, the cooking will end and the display will show Idle to indicate that the cook time has ended.

Important: The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are canceled. If cooking is canceled when the appliance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to verify the cancellation.

If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode. Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven light will remain on until the Sabbath mode is turned o and the oven lights are turned o . The oven door will not activate the interior oven lights when the oven door is opened or closed.

WARNING

Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, ﬁ sh, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator ﬁ rst. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when ﬁ nished cooking.

Important:

• Do not attempt to activate any other oven function except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. When the Sabbath feature is active, only the + and - keys and OFF will function. ALL OTHER KEYS should not be used once the Sabbath feature is active.

CARE AND CLEANING

General Cleaning

Refer to the table at the beginning of this chapter for more information about cleaning speciﬁ c parts of the oven.

Follow these cleaning precautions:

• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.

Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie ﬁ lling) to remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning. Remove spillovers and heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the e ort required for major cleaning later.

CAUTION

Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned o and the oven is cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.

Remove all racks and accessories from the oven before cleaning.

Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.

Cleaning Porcelain Enamel Oven

The oven interior is porcelain on steel, it is safe to clean using oven cleaners.

To remove heavy soil:

1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours with the oven door closed. Clean softened dirt spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse well with water and a clean cloth.

2. If soil remains, use a nonabrasive scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturer’s instructions. Do not mix ammonia with other cleaners.

3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. Clean with hot, soapy water. Rinse well using clean water and a cloth.

Broiler Pan Cleaning Tips

To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use oven mitts because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour o grease. Soak the pan in hot, soapy water.

Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-ﬁ lled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Figure 12: Broiler pan with insert

CARE AND CLEANING

Aluminum Foil, Aluminum Utensils, and Oven Liners

WARNING

Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air ﬂ ow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a ﬁ re hazard.

• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. The high heat of the oven can melt these materials to the oven cavity and ruin the oven. These types of materials can also reduce the e ectiveness of the air circulation in the oven and produce poor baking results. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or ﬁ re.

• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used.

• Oven racks - Do not use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks. Using a liner in the oven restricts the heat and air ﬂ ow needed to obtain the best possible cooking results for any oven.

Replacing the Oven Light

CAUTION

Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are cool before replacing the oven light.

The interior oven light is located at the rear of the oven cavity and is covered by a glass shield. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

To replace the oven interior light bulb:

1. Turn electrical power o at the main source or unplug the appliance.

2. Remove interior oven light shield by turning a quarter turn counter-clockwise.

3. Replace bulb with a new T-4 type Halogen 25 watt appliance bulb.

NOTE

Wear a cotton glove or use a paper towel when installing a new bulb. Do not touch the new bulb with your ﬁ ngers when replacing. This will shorten the life of the bulb.

4. Replace glass oven light shield by rotating clockwise.

5. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the appliance back in).

6. Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.

CARE AND CLEANING

Caring for Your Glide Racks

Caution: Handle oven racks only when they are

cool. After cooking or after the fresh-clean cycle, racks will be very hot and can cause burns.

Important Notes:

• Remove all oven racks, including ladder racks, before starting a clean cycle.

• Do not use cooking oil, cooking spray, or other oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrication in this area. To order graphite lubrication, contact your installer, servicer or dealer.

• It is important that the parts of the rack that contact the oven sides always have a light coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every fresh-clean cycle and when the rack becomes di cult to reposition in the oven.

To lubricate the glide rack:

1. Remove the rack from the oven and place the rack on a large ﬂ at surface covered with newspaper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack.

2. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide track using a cloth or sponge.

4. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.

5. Turn the rack upside down and apply graphite lubrication to the insides of the loading guides.

6. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.

7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the bottom of the “V” and the glide channels. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubricated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing rack positions.

3. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Apply to loading guides, and rotation pin. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack.

8. Replace rack in oven right-side up.

Removing and Replacing the Oven Door

CAUTION

The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door ﬂ at with the inside of the door facing down.

Special door care instructions - For safe, temporary storage, lay the door ﬂ at with the

inside of the door facing down. Most oven doors contain glass that can break.

Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object. Scratching, hitting, jarring, or stressing the glass may weaken its structure, causing an increased risk of breakage at a later time. Do not close the oven door until all of the oven racks are fully in place.

To remove the oven door:

1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with ﬂ oor (Figure 14).

2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support toward front of the oven until the lock stops. You may have to apply a little upward pressure on the lock to pull it up (Figure 15).

3. Grasp the door by the sides, and close the door until the door frame makes contact with the unlocked hinges (Figure 16).

4. Pull the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the top of the door toward the appliance to completely disengage the hinge levers (Figure 17).

3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with ﬂ oor (Figure 14).

4. Push the door hinge locks up toward and into the oven frame on both left and right oven door hinges to the locked position (Figure 15).
