How to Remove Packaging Tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove packaging tape adhesive on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.

NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from the chrome trim on oven parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Write down the model and serial numbers.

You’ll find them on a label on the front of the oven behind the oven door.

These numbers are also on the Consumer Product Ownership Registration Card that came with your oven. Before sending in this card, please write these numbers here:

Before Using Your Oven

Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how to set them properly. Read over the directions for the Oven Controls so you understand how to use them.

2. Check the inside of the oven. Look at the shelves. Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.

3. Read over the information and tips that follow.

4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new oven.

Oven Shelves

The shelves are when placed will stop before coming completely out from the oven, and will not tilt when removing food from or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the “stop” position. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove the shelf from the oven, pull it forward to the stop-locks and lift the front of the shelf. Be certain that the shelf is cool before touching it.

To replace the shelf in the oven, tilt the shelf up at the front and slide the curved extension of the shelf under the stop-locks on the shelf supports. Then slide the shelf all the way into the oven.

What is Convection?

In a

convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time with convection heat.

Because food is heated faster in a convection oven when using the convection modes, many types of food can be cooked at lower temperatures than those suggested for regular ovens. Do remember that recipe books often give times and temperatures for cooking in regular ovens. Convection ovens make it possible to reduce the temperature by on adapting recipes, see the Convection Cookbook.

CAUTION: The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

When should you use Convection Bake or Convection Roast?

To help you understand the difference between convection bake and roast and traditional bake and roast, here are some general guidelines.

convection bake, heat comes from the heating element in the rear of the oven. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the food. Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.

In regular baking, the bottom oven element heats the air in the oven which then cooks the food.

Convection Bake

Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked

on all 3 shelves.

●

Good for large quantities of baked foods.

●

Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,

brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.

Regular Bake

Foods such as layer cakes have a more level top

crust when not baked with convection heat.

In convection roast, heat comes from the top oven element. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food

being roasted. The heated air seals in

for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.

Convection Roast

●

Large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

●

Roasting pans with low sides to allow air movement

around food.

Regular Roast

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

●

Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster

than shiny pans.

●

Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are

recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is resistant to temperatures of

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

CONVECTION BAKING

Adapting Recipes For Convection Baking

As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for convection baking. For more specific instructions, follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook.

Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.

Multi-Shelf Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on 2 or 3 shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may increase cook times slightly for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and other with multi-shelf baking.

When baking on 3 shelves, divide the oven into thirds by placing the offset shelf in the third (C) shelf

CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that you pull the shelf out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by holding the sides of it. The offset shelf is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all the way out.

Arrange the oven

shelf or shelves in the desired locations while the oven is cool. The correct shelf position depends on the kind of food and the browning desired. As a general rule,

place-most foods in the middle of the oven, on either

shelf positions B or C. See the chart for suggested shelf positions.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified temperature before putting in the food. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature—selecting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

Roasting

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat

Baking Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.

●

Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a

browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

●

Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting

in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of pan.

●

Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking

in glass baking dishes, reduce the temperature by 25°F.

Pan Placement

For even cooking and proper browning, there must be enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered as much as possible rather than being placed to the front or to the back of the oven.

Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Allow 1- to 1X-inch space between pans as well as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. If you use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

Page 19

Baking Guides

When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions for the best baking results.

When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.

Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover a shelf with a large cookie sheet.

For best results during regular baking, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.

Also see the Multi-Shelf Baking section.

Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil uneven baking results and poorly shaped products. pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size used is the one recommended.

Aluminum Foil

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.

This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil maybe used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf

several inches below the food.

Don’t Peek

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do DO NOT open the door to check until the not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes provide minimum and maximum baking times such as “bake 30-40 minutes.”

REGULAR ROASTING WITH THE PROBE

Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe

Your double oven has a probe in the upper oven only.

A temperature probe has been provided for use in your new oven. This probe is designed to withstand high temperatures. Temperature probes provided with other products, such as those used for microwave ovens, may not be designed to withstand high temperatures. Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe.

Never leave your probe inside the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting

by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want. When the internal temperature of the food reaches the temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.

The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at

1 end and a plug at the other end that goes into the outlet on the oven wall.

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or the broiler pan grid, follow these steps for proper probe placement.

Lay the probe on the

outside of the meat along the top or side

and mark with your finger where the edge of the meat comes to

on the probe. Point

Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the meat and wall outlet. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing the probe—they might damage it. TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE SURE FOOD IS COMPLETELY DEFROSTED BEFORE INSERTING.

REGULAR ROASTING QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a

meat thermometer?

Checking the finished internal temperature at the

completion of cooking time is recommended if you did not use the probe while cooking. Temperatures are shown in the Regular Roasting Guide. For roasts over 8 lbs., check with thermometer at half-hour intervals after half the cooking time has passed.

Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to

carve it?

A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to

20 minutes after removing them from the oven. Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.

REGULAR ROASTING GUIDE

Frozen Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per pound additional time (15 minutes per pound for

roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

Q. Do I need to preheat my oven each time I cook a

roast or poultry?

is not necessary to preheat your oven.

Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips

that would help me cook it more evenly?

A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,

or buy rolled roasts.

Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when

roasting a turkey?

A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving it

unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown the meat.

Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting. Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly. Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked successfully without thawing. Follow the directions given on the package label.

Your double oven has controls for the upper oven

and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel are for the lower oven. The TIMER ON/OFF, COOK TIME, STOP TIME, INCREASE and DECREASE pads

can be used for either oven.

Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper broil element in the oven. You can broil in the upper or the lower oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.

Turn the food only once during broiling. Time the foods for the first side according to the Broiling Guide.

Turn the food, then use the times given for the second side as a guide to preferred doneness.

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut

vertical slashes through

If desired, the fat maybe trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8 inch thick.

2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan. Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler

pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough

to catch on fire.

3. Position a flat shelf on the recommended shelf

position as suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling is done on C position, but if your range is connected to 208 volts, you may wish to use a higher position.

BROILING

(continued)

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat

juices from draining to the broiler pan. The juices

could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.

Questions and Answers

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a

grid in the pan?

A. Yes.

Q. Do I need to grease my broiler grid to prevent

A. No.

Using the grid suspends the meat over the pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.

meat from sticking?

The broiler grid is designed to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying the broiler grid lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make clean-up easier.

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown

as they should?

In some areas, the power (voltage) to the range

may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan with food in oven. Check to see if you are using the recommended shelf position. Broil for longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide. Turn the food only once during broiling. You may need to move the food to a higher shelf position.

Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?

A. No.

Salt draws out the juices and allows them to evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also allows the juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.

Page 29

● Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with

your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

●

The oven door should be open to the broil

stop position.

●

For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the

outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent piercing the meat and losing juices.

●

If desired, marinate meats or chicken before

broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to

10 minutes only.

●

When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty

edges hang over the sides because the dripping fat could soil the oven.

●

The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,

for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.

●

Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven

shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking time given in this guide 1 X times per side.

●

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick

pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.

●

If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks

may be broiled by preheating the broiler and positioning the oven shelf one position higher.
