cWhen using cooking or roasting bags in oven, follow
the manufacturer’s directions.
QDo not use your oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they
can catch fire.
Surface Cooking Units
Use proper pan size—This
appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different
size. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover
tile surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to burner will also improve efficiency.
Never leave surface uni~
unattended at high heat settings. Boilover causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
sBe sure drip pans and vent
ducts are not covered and are in place. Their absence during
cooking could damage range parts and wiring.
QDon’t use aluminum foil to line drip pans or anywhere in the oven except as described in this book. Misuse could result in a shock, fire hazard or damage to the range.
. Only certain types of glass9
glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for range-topservice;
others may break because of the sudden change in temperature. (See section on “Surface Cooking” for suggestions.)
. To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable
materials, and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the
range without extending over
- nearby surface units.
Always turn surface unit to
.~~
OFF before removing cookware.
Keep an eye on foods being
fried at HI or MED HI heats.
Toavoid the possibility of a
burn or electric shock, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at OFF position and all coils are cool
before attempting to lift or remove the unit.
Don’t immerse or soak
removable surface units. Don’t put them in a dishwasher.
cWhen flaming foods are under the hood, turn the fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flame.
. Foods for frying should be as
dry as possible. Frost on frozen
foods or moisture on fresh foods ... can cause hot fat to bubble up and over sides of pan.
use little fat for effective
shallow or deep-fat frying.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
cIf a combination of oils or
fats will be used in frying, stir
together before heating, or as fats
melt slowly.
Always heat fat slowly, and
watch as it heats.
Use deep fat thermometer
whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the
smoking point.

Installing Your
Energy-Saving Tips
Range
Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. When moving the range on this type of flooring, use care, and it is recommended that these simple and inexpensive instructions be followed.
The range should be installed on a l/4-inch-thick sheet of plywood
(or similar material) as follows:
When the floor covering ends at
the front of the range, the area
that the range will rest on should
be built up with plywood to the
same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow
the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing. For complete information, see the Installation Instructions in the back of this book.
Leveling the Range
(on models so equipped)
Leveling screws are located on each comer of the base of the range. Remove the bottom drawer (on models so equipped) and you can level the range on an uneven floor with the use of a nutdriver.
To remove drawer, pull drawer out all the way, tilt up the front
and take it out. drawer, insert glides at back of
drawer beyond stop on range glides.
Lift drawer if necessary to insert easily. Let front of drawer down, then push in to close.
One of the rear leveling screws will engage the Anti-Tip device (allow for some side to side adjustment). Allow a minimum clearance of 1/8 inch between the range and the leveling screw that is to be installed into the Anti-Tip device.
Toreplace
Surface Cooking
Use cookware of medium weight
aluminum, with tight-fitting covers, and flat bottoms which completely cover the heated portion of the surface unit.
Cook fresh vegetables with a
minimum amount of water in a covered pan.
Watch foods when bringing them
quickly to cooking temperatures at high heat. When food reaches cooking temperature, reduce heat immediately to lowest setting that will keep it cooking.
c Use residual heat with surface cooking whenever possible. For example, when cooking eggs in the
shell, bring water and eggs to boil, then turn to OFF position and cover with lid to complete the cooking.
c Use correct heat for cooking task: HI—to start cooking (if time
allows, do not use high heat to start). MED HI-quick browning. MED—s1ow frying. LO-finish cooking most quantities,
simmer-double boiler heat and for small quantities.
WM—to maintain serving temperature of most foods.
When boiling water for tea or
coffee, heat only amount needed.
It is not economical to boil a container full of water for one or two cups.
Oven Cooking
Preheat oven only when
necessary. Most foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating. If you find preheating is necessary, watch the indicator light, and put food in oven promptly after the light goes out.
Always turn oven off before
removing food. . During baking, avoid frequent
door openings. Keep door open as short a time as possible if it is opened.
c Cook complete oven meals
instead of just one food item.
Potatoes, other vegetables, and
some desserts will cook together with a main-dish casserole, meat loaf, chicken or roast. Choose foods that cook at the same temperature and in approximately the same time.
Use residual heat in the oven
whenever possible to finish cooking casseroles, oven meals, etc. Also add rolls or precooked desserts to warm oven, using residual heat to warm them.

Surface Cooking with Infinite Heat Controls
How to Set the Controls
,-
Cooking Guide for Using Heat Settings
$
$
Your surface units and controls
are designed to give you an infinite choice of heat settings for surface unit cooking.
At both OFF and HIGH positions, there is a slight niche so control
“clicks” at those positions; “click” on HIGH marks the highest setting; the lowest setting is between the words WARM and OFF. In a quiet kitchen, you may hear slight
“clicking” sounds during cooking, indicating heat settings selected are being maintained.
Switching heats to higher settings always shows a quicker change
than switching to lower settings.
\
‘i
Step 1: Grasp control knob and push in. (Knob appearance varies.)
Step 2: Turn either clockwise or counterclockwise to desired heat
setting.
Control must be pushed in to set
only from OFF position. When
control is in any position other
than OFF, it maybe rotated
without pushing in.
Be sure you turn control to OFF when you finish cooking. An indicator light will glow when ANY heat on any surface unit is on.
HI—Quick start for cooking; brings water to a boil.
MEDIUM H1—(Setting halfway between HI and MED) Fast fry, pan broil; maintains a fast boil on
large amounts of food.
MED—Saute and brown; maintains a slow boil on large
amounts of food. WARM—(Setting halfway
between MED and LO) Cook after starting at HI; cooks with little water in covered pan.
:.
L
‘,
3
LO—Steam rice, cereal; maintains serving temperature of most foods.
NOTE:
1. At HI, MEDIUM HI settings, never leave food unattended. Boilovers cause smoking; greasy
spillovers may catch fire.
2. At WARM, LO settings, melt chocolate and butter on small
surface unit.
Questions & Answers
~Q
\
. May I can foods and
~‘ preserves on my surface unit?
A. Yes, but only use cookware
designed for canning purposes. Check the manufacturer’s
instructions and recipes for
preserving foods. Be sure canner
is flat-bottomed and fits over the center of your Calrod@ unit. Since canning generates large amounts of steam, be careful to avoid burns from steam or heat. Canning should only be done on surface units.
Q. Can I cover my drip pans with foil?
A. No. Clean as recommended in
Cleaning Guide.
Q. Can I use special cooking equipment, like an oriental wok, on any surface unit?
A. Cookware without flat surfaces
is not recommended. The life of your surface unit can be shortened and the range top can be damaged from the high heat needed for this type of cooking.
Q. Why am I not getting the heat I need from my units even though I have the knobs on the right setting?
A. After turning surface unit off
and making sure it is cool, check to make sure that your plug-in units are securely fastened into the
surface connection.
Q. Why does my cookware tilt when I place it on the surface unit?
A. Because the surface unit is not
flat. Make sure that the “feet” on your Calrod” units are sitting tightly in the range top indentation and the reflector ring is flat on the range surface.
Q. Why is the porcelain finish on
my cookware coming off? A. If you set your Calrod@ unit
higher than required for the cookware material, and leave it, the finish may smoke, crack, pop, or bum depending on the pot or pan. Also, a too high heat for long periods and cooking small amounts of dry food may damage the tlnish.
.~ Home Canning Tips
.
Canning should be done on surface units only.
Pots that extend beyond one inch of cooking element’s trim ring are
not recommended for most surface
cooking. However, when canning
with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used. This is because boiling water temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to cooktop surfaces surrounding the surface units.
HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE DIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE DIAMETER
POTS FOR FRYING OR BOILING
FOODS OTHER THAN WATER.
Most syrup or sauce mixtures— and all types of frying— cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water. Such temperatures could eventually harm cooktop surfaces surrounding surface units.
Observe Following Points in Canning
1. Be sure the canner fits over the
center of the surface unit. If your range or its location does not allow the canner to be centered on the
surface unit, use smaller-diameter
pots for good canning results.
2. Flat-bottomed canners must be used. Do not use canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) because they don’t make enough contact with the surface unit and take too long to boil water.
RIGHT
WRONG
3. When canning, use recipes and
procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and procedures are available from the manufacturer of your canner; manutldcturers of glass jars for canning, such as Ball and Kerr; and the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service.
4. Remember that canning is a process that generates large amounts of steam. To avoid burns from steam or heat, be careful when canning.
NOTE: If your range is being operated on low power (voltage), canning may take longer than expected. even though directions have been carefully followed. The process time will be shortened by
(1) using a pressure canner, and (2) starting with HOT tap water for fastest heating of large quantities of water.

Surface Cooking Guide
Cookware Tips
1. Use medium-or heavy-weight
cookware. Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster than other metals. Cast iron and coated cast iron cookware is slow to absorb heat, but generally cooks evenly at low or medium heat settings.
Steel pans may cook unevenly if not combined with other metals.

Automatic Timer and Clock
The automatic timer and clock on
your range are helpful devices that serve several purposes. The knob locations on some range models may vary and will look like one of the two sets of timers below,
Clock style on models so equipped.
To Set Clock
TO SET THE CLOCK, push the center knob in and turn the clock
hands to the correct time. (The Minute Timer pointer will move also. Let the knob out, then turn the Timer pointer to OFF.)
To Set Minute Timer
The Minute Timer has been combined with the range clock. Use it to time all your precise cooking operations. You’ 11 recognize the Minute Timer as the pointer which is different in color
and shape than the clock hands.
TO SET THE MINUTE TIMER, turn the center knob, without
pushing in, until pointer reaches number of minutes you wish to time. (Minutes are marked, up to 60, in the center ring on the clock.) At the end of the set time, a buzzer sounds to tell you time is up. Turn
knob, without pushing in, until pointer reaches OFF and buzzer
stops.
Time Bake Uses Automatic Timer
Using Automatic Timer, you can TIME BAKE with the oven starting immediately and turning off at the Stop Time set or set both DELAY START and STOP TIME dials to automatically start and stop oven at a later time of day. It takes the worry out of not being home to start or stop the oven.
Setting the dials for TIME BAKE is explained in detail in the Baking section of this book.
Clock and Minute Timer on models so equipped.
These models have a time of day clock and minute timer but do not have DELAY START and STOP TIME dials needed for TIME BAKE function.
Questions and Answers
Q. How can I use my Minute Timer to make my surface cooking easier?
A. Your Minute Timer will help
time total cooking which includes time to boil food and change temperatures. Do not judge cooking time by visible steam only. Food will cook in covered containers even though you can’t
see any steam.
Q. Must the clock be set on correct time of day when I wish to use the Automatic Timer for baking?
A. Yes, if you wish to set the
DELAY START or STOP TIME dials to turn on and off at set times during timed functions.
Q. Can I use the Minute Timer
during oven cooking? A. The Minute Timer can be used
during any cooking function. The
Automatic Timers (DELAY
START and STOP TIME dials) are used with TIME BAKE function only.
Q. Can I change the clock while I’m Time Cooking in the oven?
A. No. The clock cannot be
changed during any program that uses the oven timer. You must either stop those programs or wait until they are finished before
changing time.
Using Your Oven
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you
understand how to set them properly. Read over the directions for the Automatic Oven Timer so you understand its use with the controls.
2. Check oven interior. Look at the shelves. Thke a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this book handy so you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of getting acquainted with your oven.

marked OVEN SET and OVEN
TEMP. OVEN SET has settings for
BAKE, TIME BAKE (on models so
equipped), BROIL and OFF. When
you turn the knob to the desired setting, the proper heating units are then activated for that operation.
OVEN TEMP maintains the temperature you set, from WARM ( 150”F) to BROIL (550”F).
The Oven Cycling Light glows until the oven reaches your selected temperature, then goes off and on
with the oven unit(s) during cooking. PREHEATING the oven, even to
high temperature settings, is speedy, rarely more than about 10minutes. Preheat the oven only when necessary. Most foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating. If you fmd preheating is necessary, keep an eye on the indicator light and put food
in the oven promptly after light goes out.
Oven Interior Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they (a) will stop before coming completely from the oven, and (b) will not tilt when removing food from or placing food on them.
TO REMOVE THE SHELVES from the oven pull the shelf toward you, tilt front end upward and pull the shelf out.
TO REPLACE, place the shelf on shelf support with stop-locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up front and push shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past “stop” on the oven wall. Then
lower the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.
The oven has four shelf supports
marked A (bottom), B, C and D (top). Shelf positions for cooking food are suggested on Baking, Roasting and Broiling pages.
Oven Light
(on models so equipped)
The light comes on automatically when the door is opened.
On models with oven window, use switch to turn light on and off when door is closed. The switch is located on the front of the door on some models. On other models, you’ll find it on the control panel.

Baking
When cooking a food for the first time in your new oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from the factory
setting and a difference in timing between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes is not unusual. You may be inclined to think that the new oven is not performing correctly. However, your new oven has been set correctly at the factory and is more apt to be accurate than the oven it replaced.
How to Set Your Range for Baking
Step 1: Place food in oven, being
certain to leave about 1 inch of space between pans and walls of oven for good circulation of heat. Close oven door. During baking, avoid frequent door openings to prevent undesirable results,
How to Set Immediate Start and Automatic Stop
NOTE: Before beginning, make
sure the hands of the range clock show the correct time of day,
Immediate Start is simply setting oven to start baking now and turn off at a later time automatically. Remember, foods continue cooking after controls are off.
Step 1: To set Stop Time, push in knob on STOP TIME dial and turn pointer to time you want oven to turn off, for example 6:00. The DELAY START dial should beat the same position as the time of day on clock.
Step 1: To set start time, push in knob on DELAY START dial and turn pointer to time you want oven to turn on, for example 3:30.
Step 2: To set Stop Time, push in
knob on STOP TIME dial and turn pointer to time you want oven to turn off, for example 6:00. This means your recipe called for two and one-half hours of baking time.
NOTE: Time on STOP TIME dial rhust be later than time shown on range clock and DELAY START dial.
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob to temperature on recipe or on Baking Guide.
Step 3: Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Switch off heat and remove foods.
How to Time Bake
(on models with this feature) The automatic oven timer controls
are designed to turn the oven on or off automatically at specific times that you set.
14
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to
TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP knob to oven temperature, for example 250°F. The oven will start immediately and will stop at the time you have set.
How to Set Delay Start and Stop
Delay Start and Stop is setting the oven timer to tim tile oven on and off automatically at a later time than the present time of day.
Step 3: Turn OVEN SET knob to TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP knob to 250”F. or recommended temperature.
Place food in oven, close the door and automatically the oven will be turned on and off at the times you have set. Turn OVEN SET to OFF and remove food from oven.
OVEN INDICATOR LIGHT(s) at TIME BAKE setting may work differently than they do at BAKE setting. Carefully recheck the steps given above. If all operations are done as explained, oven will operate as it should.

Roasting
Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum. When
roasting, it is not necessary to sear, baste, cover or add water to your meat.
Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set to BAKE or TIME BAKE. (You may hear a slight clicking sound, indicating the oven is working properly.) Roasting is easy; just follow these steps:
Step 1: Check weight of meat, and place, fat-side-up, on roasting rack in a shallow pan. (Broiler pan with rack is a good pan for this.) Line broiler pan with aluminum foil when using pan for marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily cured meats, or for basting food during cooking. Avoid spilling these materials on oven liner or door.
Step 2: Position in oven on shelf in A or B position. No preheating
Step 4: Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing, after being removed from the oven. Standing time recommended for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. Internal temperature will rise about to
10*F,; to compensate for temperature rise, if desired, remove roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10“F. less than temperature in the guide).
NOTE: You may wish to use TIME BAKE, as described in the Baking section of this book, to turn oven on and off automatically.
Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when the desired internal temperature has been reached.
Frozen Roasts c
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).
Thaw most frozen poultry before
roasting to ensure even doneness. Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked successfully without thawing. Follow directions given on package label.
Questions and Answers ~
Q. Is it nemssarytocheck for doneness with a meat thermometer?
A. Checking the finished internal
temperature at the completion of cooking time is recommended. Temperatures are shown in Roasting Guide on opposite page. For roasts over 8 lbs., cooked at 300”F. with reduced time, check with thermometer at half-hour intervals after half the 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 from oven. Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.
Q. Do I need to preheat my oven
each time I cook a roast or poultry?
A. It is rarely necessary to preheat
your oven, only for very small roasts, which cook a short length ,, of time.
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.

Broiling
Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper unit in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these steps to keep spattering and
smoking-to a minimum. ­Step 1: If meat has fat or gristle
near edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2“ apart. If desired, fat may be trimmed, leaving layer about 1/8” thick.
Step 2: Place meat on broiler rack broiler pan. Always use rack so fat drips into broiler pan; otherwise
juices may become hot enough to
catch fire.
Step 3: Position shelf on recommended shelf position as suggested in 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.
Step 4: Leave door ajar a few inches (except when broiling chicken). The door stays open by itself, yet the proper te-mperature is maintained in the oven.
Step 5: Turn both OVEN SET and
OVEN TEMP knob to BROIL.
Preheating units is not necessary. (See notes in Broiling Guide.)
Step 6: Turn food only once during broiling. Time foods for first side per Broiling Guide.
Turn food, then use times given for
second side as a guide to prefemed
doneness. (Where two thicknesses
and times are given together, use
first times given for thinnest food.)
Step 7: When finished broiling, turn OVEN SET knob to OFF. Serve food immediately, leaving
in
the broiler pan and rack outside oven to cool during meal for easiest cleaning.
Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the rack and cut slits in it just like the rack.
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 & Answers _
Q. Why should I leave the door closed when broiling chicken?
A. Chicken is the only food
recommended for closed-door broiling. This is because chicken is relatively thicker than other foods you broil. Closing the door holds more heat in the oven which allows chicken to cook evenly throughout.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary
to always use a rack in the pan? A. Yes. Using the rack 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 rack and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
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 meat with tongs; piercing meat with a fork allows juices to escape. ~’ y When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.
Q. Why are my meats not turning
out as brown as they should? A. In some areas, the power
(voltage) to the oven maybe low. In these cases, preheat the broil unit 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 food only once during broiling.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent meat from sticking?
A. No. The broiler rack is designed
to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make cleanup easier.

care tind CleaIliIlg (seeCleaning Guide)
Proper care and cleaning are important so your range will give you efllcient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions
carefully in caring for your range to assure safe and proper maintenance.
Cooktop
The porcelain enamel cooktop is sturdy but breakable if misused. This finish is acid-resistant. However, any acidic foods spilled (such as fruit juices, tomato or
vinegar) should not be permitted to
remain on the finish.
Cleaning Under the Range
The area under the range of models equipped with a bottom drawer can be reached easily for cleaning by
removing the bottom drawer. To remove, pull drawer out all the way, tilt up the front and remove it.
To replace, insert glides at back of
drawer beyond stop on range glides. Lift drawer if necessary to insert easily. Let front of drawer down, then push in to close.
Removable Oven Door
To REMOVE door, open to BROIL position, or where you feel hinge catch slightly. Grasp door at sides; lift door up and away from hinges.
To REPLACE, grasp door at sides. Line up door with hinges and push door firmly into place.
Oven Vent Duct
Your range is vented through a duct located under the right rear surface unit. Clean the duct often.
‘1’0remove:
Make sure unit is cool.
Lift up right rear surface unit.
Remove trim ring/drip pan.
Lift out oven vent duct.
To replace:
. Place the part over the oven vent located below the cooktop with opening of the duct under the round opening in the drip pan. It is important that the duct is in the correct position so moisture and vapors from the oven can be released during oven use. NOTE: Never cover the hole in the oven vent duct with aluminum foil or any other material, This prevents the oven vent from working properly during any cooking cycle.
Lamp Replacement
(on models so equipped) CAUTION: Before replacing
your oven lamp bulb, disconnect the electric power for your range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be sure to let
the lamp cover and bulb cool completely before removing or replacing them. When in use, light bulbs can become warm enough to break if touched with moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid touching warm lamps with cleaning cloths if lamp cover is removed.
The oven lamp (bulb) is covered
with a glass removable cover that
is held in place with a bail-shaped wire. Remove oven door, if desired, to reach cover easily.
To remove:
. Hold hand under cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With
fingers of same hand, firmly push back wire bail until it clears cover.
Lift off cover. DO NOT REMOVE
ANY SCREWS.
Replace bulb with 40-watt home
appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
Place it into groove of lamp

Surface Units
Clean the area under the drip pans
often. Built-up soil, especially
grease, may catch fire. To make
cleaning easier, tilt-lock units lift
up and lock in the up position, and
plug-in units are removable.
Caution: Be sure all controls are
turned to OFF and surface units
are cool before attempting to lift
or remove them.
After lifting the tilt-lock units or
removing plug-in units, remove the
trim rings/drip pans under the units
and clean them according to
directions in the Cleaning Guide.
Wipe around the edges of the
surface unit openings. Clean the area below the units. Rinse all ­washed areas with a damp cloth or --’ sponge.

Adjusting Oven Thermostat
Use time given on recipe when cooking the first time. Oven thermostats, in time, may “drift” from the factory setting and differences in timing between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. If you find that your foods consistently brown too little or too much, you may make a simple adjustment in the thermostat (Oven Temp) knob.
Pull knob off of shaft, look at back of knob and note current setting before making any adjustment.
To increase temperature, turn toward HI; to decrease turn toward
LO. Each notch changes temperature
10 degrees.
1. Pull off knob. Loosen both
screws on back of knob.
2. Move pointer one notch in desired direction. Tighten screws.
3. Return knob to range, matching t-at area of knob to shaft. Recheck oven performance before making an additional adjustment.
Plug-in units can be removed.
Lift a plug-in unit about 1 inch above the trim ring—just enough to grasp it—and pull it out.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to clean plug-in
surface units in an automatic dishwasher.

Continuous-CleaningOvenCare
Do not attempt to clean the oven until you have read this section.
The top, bottom, sides and back of the oven liner and door inner liner are finished with a special coating which cannot be cleaned in the usual manner with soap, detergents, commercial oven cleaners, coarse abrasive pads or coarse brushes. Use of such cleaners and/or the use of oven
sprays will cause permanent
damage. The special coating is a porous
ceramic material which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to
the touch. If magnified, the surface would appear as peaks, valleys and sub-surface “tunnels.” This rough finish tends to prevent grease spatters from forming little beads or droplets, which run down the side walls of a hard-surface oven liner leaving unsightly streaks that require hand cleaning. Instead, when spatter hits the porousfinish, it is dispersed and is partially
absorbed. This dispersal action increases the exposure of oven soil to heated air, which results in oxidation of soil. This finish also reduces the visual effect of residual soil. It may not disappear completely and at some time after extended usage, stains may appear.
The special coating works best on small amounts of spatter. It does not work well with larger spills, especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures. For this reason, the oven is equipped with a removable, replaceable aluminum foil oven bottom liner which protects the
porous jnish on the bottom of the
oven from spillovers. Avoid spills on inside surface of the oven door. This special finish is not used on
oven shelves. Shelves are removable and can be taken to the sink for cleaning. See Cleaning Guide in this book for cleaning directions.

To Clean Oven:
Use the following steps when cleaning your Continuous-Clean Oven.
1. Let range parts cool before
handling. It is recommended that rubber gloves be worn when cleaning range parts manually.
2. Remove all cookware, including the broiler pan and rack.
3. Remove oven shelves and clean them manually with scouring pads or mild abrasive.
4. Remove excess spills and boilovers from aluminum foil oven bottom liner before removing liner from oven. This is to prevent excess liquids from spilling onto the porous finish. Then remove
aluminum foil bottom liner and clean manually. (Before cleaning or removing the aluminum foil
liner, lift bake unit out of the way.)
5. Clean oven window. Use mild
non-scratching cleanser and damp
cloth. Avoid spilling water or
cleaner on porous surface.
6. Soil visibility maybe reduced
by operating oven at 400”F. Close
door, set oven temperature control to 400”F. Time for at least 4 hours. Repeated cycles may be necessary before improvement in appearance is apparent, particularly on oven door. For moderate to heavy
soiling of oven door, use method described in item (7) below before running 400”F. cycle. The oven timer can be used to control the cycle automatically at a time
convenient for you. Some slight
smoking may occur, similar to that which may occur during Time Bake cooking.
REMEMBER: DURING THE OPERATION OF THE OVEN, THE DOOR, WINDOW AND OTHER RANGE SURFACES WILL GET HOT ENOUGH TO CAUSE BURNS. DO NOT TOUCH. LET THE RANGE COOL BEFORE REPLACING ALUMINUM FOIL OVEN BOTTOM AND OVEN SHELVES IF THEY WERE REMOVED.
7. If a spillover or heavy soiling occurs on the porous surface, as
soon as the oven has cooled, remove as much of the soil as possible using a small amount of
water and a stiff bristle nylon brush. When using water, use it
sparingly and change it frequently,
keeping it as clean as possible, and be sure to blot it up with paper
towels, cloths or sponges. Do not
rub or scrub with paper towels,
cloths or sponges, since these will
leave unsightly lint on the oven
finish. If water leaves a white ring
on the finish as it dries, apply
water again and blot it with a clean
sponge, starting at the edge of the
ring and working toward the
center.
Use care in removing and
replacing aluminum foil oven
bottom liner and shelves and in
placing and removing dishes and
food to avoid scratching, rubbing
or otherwise damaging the porous
jinish on the oven walls and door.
Do not use soap, detergent,
commercial oven cleaner, silicone
oven sprays, coarse steel pads or
coarse brushes on the porous
su~ace. These products will spot,
clog and mar the porous surface
and reduce its ability to work.
