and inspect the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.

If you pull tile range out from tile wall %r any reason, make sure tile device is properly

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement 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 fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during

the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.

Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be

Thetype ofmargarine will affect bakingperformance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). ff you

decrease the fat, the recipe maynot give the same results as with a higher-fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat

content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled "i//;:lrg;:li'ine" to cont;:lin at least 80% tilt by weight. I.o\_tilt spreads,
on the other hand, contain less elt and more wamr. The high moisture content of these spreads afli_cts the

texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with w_ur old tm.o_ite recipes, use margarine, butter or
stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
