IMPORTANT

SAFETY NOTICE The

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning 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.

suggested in manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

● Be sure to wipe up excess

spillage

before starting the

self-

cleaning operation.

If You Need Service

● Read the Problem Solver in the

back of this book.

● Don’t attempt to repair or

replace any part of your oven unless it is specifically recommended in this book.

All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

● Preheat oven only when

necessary. Most foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating. If you find preheating is necessary, listen for the beep, and put food oven promptly after the oven is preheated.

● 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.

“

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.

—

● If the self-cleaning mode

malfunctions, turn off and disconnect the power supply.

Before Using Your Oven

1. 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 oven interior. Look at the shelves. Take 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 using your new oven.

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely from the oven, and will not tilt when you are removing food from them 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.

Oven Light

The light comes on automatically when the oven door is opened. Use the

Comments

Canned, refrigerated biscuits take 2 to 4 minutes less time.

Preheat cast-iron pan for crisp crust.

Decrease about 5 minutes for muffin mix, or bake at 450”F. for 25 minutes, then at

350”F.

for 10 to 15 minutes.

Dark metal or glass give deepest browning.

Two-piece pan is convenient. Line pan with waxed paper.

Paper liners produce moister crusts. Use 300”F. and Shelf B for small or individual cakes. If baking four layers, use Shelves B and D.

Bar cookies from mix use same time. Use Shelf C and increase temperature

25”F.

to 50”F. for more browning.

Reduce temperature to 300”F. for large custard. Cook bread or rice pudding with custard base 80 to 90 minutes.

For large pies use 400°F. and more time. To quickly brown meringue, use 400°F. for 8 to 10 minutes. Custard fillings require lower temperature, longer time.

Increase time for larger amount or size.

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 for 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 basting food during cooking. Avoid spilling these materials on oven liner or door.

Step 2: Place in oven shelf in A or B position. No preheating is necessary.

NOTE: You

Step 4: Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until desired temperature is displayed.

The word “ON” will be displayed as the oven heats up. When the oven reaches the set temperature a tone will sound.

To change oven temperature during BAKE cycle, touch BAKE pad and then INCREASE or DECREASE pad to set new temperature.

Step 5: Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when roasting is finished and then remove food from oven.

Step 6: 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 5° to 10”F.; to compensate for temperature increase, if desired, remove the roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10”F. less than temperature in the Roasting Guide.)

● 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. 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 unnecessary 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.

Correct Placement of the

Temperature Probe

Oven has oven only.

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 skewer-1’ike plug at the other end that goes into a receptacle on the oven wall. Use handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing from meat and wall receptacle. 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.

Broiling

Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper broil unit in the oven. You can broil in upper or lower 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 in broiler pan. Always use rack so fat drips into broiler pan; otherwise

uices may become hot enough to

catch fire. Step 3: Position shelf on

recommended shelf position as suggested in Broiling Guide.

Step 4: Leave door open to broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper tempera-@ is maintained in the oven.

Step 5: Touch the BROIL pad. NOTE: If BROIL pad does not

work, probe might be connected.

Remove

probe.

Step 6:

Touch INCREASE pad for HI broil or touch DECREASE pad for LO broil.

NOTE:

Chicken and ham are broiled at LO broil in order to cook food without overbrowning it.

Step 7:

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 preferred doneness. (Where two thicknesses and times are given together, use first times given for thinnest food.)

Step 8: When finished broiling, touch the food immediately, and leave pan outside oven to cool during meal

for easiest cleaning.

pad. Serve

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. 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 also allows juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fish, brush each side often with butter.

Q. Why are

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.

Broiling Guide

1. Always use broiler pan and rack

that comes with your oven. It is designed spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

2. Oven door should be open to the broil stop position for all foods.

3. For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around outside edges of meat.

To slash, cut crosswise through outer fat surface just to the edge of

minimize smoking and

the meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent piercing meat and losing juices.

4. If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling. Or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.

5. When arranging food on pan, do not let fatty edges hang over sides, which could soil oven with fat dripping.

6. Broiler does not need to be preheated. However, for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.

7. Frozen steaks can be conventionally broiled by positioning the oven shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking time given in this guide

Care and Cleaning

Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you efficient and satisfactory

service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for your oven to assure safe and proper maintenance.

Oven Shelves

Oven shelves may be cleaned with a mild abrasive cleanser following manufacturer’s directions. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

To remove heavy, burned-on soil, soapy metal pads may be used following manufacturer’s directions. After scrubbing, wash with soapy water, rinse and dry.

Oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. Note: Shelves will discolor during the self-cleaning cycle.

Broiler Pan & Rack

After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven. Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully pour out the grease in the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the pan and rack in hot, soapy water.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack while hot with detergent and cover with wet paper towels or a dish cloth. That way, burned-on foods will soak loose while the meal is being served.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack in the oven. Do not clean in self-cleaning oven.

Oven Light Bulb

The light bulb is located on the back wall of the oven. Before

replacing the bulb, disconnect electric power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Let the bulb cool completely before hot bulb with do, the bulb will break.

The oven lamp (bulb) is covered with a removable glass cover which is held in place with a shaped wire. Remove oven door, if desired, to reach cover easily.

Operating the Self-Cleaning Oven

Programmed Cleaning Time: 3 hours

Prepare the Oven Before Setting the Controls

Step 1:

Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

(Oven shelves may be left in the

oven. NOTE: Shelves will

discolor during the self-cleaning cycle.)

Step 2: Wipe up heavy soil on oven bottom. If you use soap, rinse

thoroughly before self-cleaning to prevent staining.

Step 3:

●

Clean spatters or soil on the oven

front frame (A), under the front edge of the oven vent, the door liner outside the door gasket and the front edge of the oven cavity (about 1“ into the oven). Use detergent and hot water with a

soap-filled steel wool pad, then rinse well with a vinegar and water mixture. This will help prevent a brown residue from forming when

the oven is heated. Buff these areas

with a dry cloth.

●

Clean top, sides and outside front of oven door with soap and water. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

Do not let water run down through openings in the top of the door (B). To help prevent water from getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door as far as it will go.

Clean the door gasket (C) using a clean sponge to soak the soiled area with hydrogen peroxide. Repeated soaking may be needed depending on the amount of soil. Frequent cleaning will prevent excessive soil buildup. Do not rub

the door gasket—the fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good baking results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or

if it has become displaced on the

door, you should replace it.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover (D) is in place.

Step 4:

Close the oven door and make sure the oven light is off.

Oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the

shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make shelves slide more easily.

Do not use commercial oven

cleaners or oven protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.

A combination of any of these products plus the high clean-cycle temperature may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.

Adjusting Oven Thermostat

When cooking a food for the first time in your oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from the factory setting and differences in timing between an old and a new oven of

to 10 minutes are not unusual. You may be inclined to think that the new oven is not performing correctly. has been set correctly at the factory and is more apt to be accurate than the oven it replaced.

If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this “test” should give you an idea of how much the temperature should be changed.

To adjust the temperature, follow the steps below.
