READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

WARNING!

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

■ Do not touch the heating elements or the

interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough to burn even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.

■ Potentially hot surfaces include oven vent

openings, surfaces near the openings, crevices around the oven door, the edges of the window and metal trim parts above the door.

■ REMEMBER : The inside surface of the oven

may be hot when the door is opened.

■ Never place cooking utensils or any other

items on the oven floor. There is a heating element beneath the oven floor. Placing items on the oven floor may cause the oven to overheat, resulting in damage to the oven and risk of damage or fire to cabinets.

■ Stand away from the oven when opening

the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

■ Do not heat unopened food containers.

Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

■ Keep the oven vent unobstructed.

■ Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■ Place the oven rack in the desired position

while the oven is cool. If racks must be handled when hot, do not let pot holder contact the heating elements.

■ When using cooking or roasting bags in

the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

■ Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

■ Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■ Do not use the oven for a storage area.

Items stored in an oven can ignite.

■ Do not leave paper products, cooking

utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

■ After broiling, always take any broiler

pan out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in a broiler pan can catch fire next time you use the pan.

■ Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in

or near your oven.

■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ Do not use aluminum foil to line oven

bottoms, except as suggested in this manual. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

Press the Bake pad.

Press the Temp + or – pads to set the desired temperature.

Press the Start pad.

Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.

Press the Clear/Off pad when cooking is complete.

NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run even after the oven is turned off.

If baking four cake layers at the same time, place two layers on rack A and two layers on rack C. Stagger pans on the rack so one is not directly above the other.

Type of Food Rack Position

Frozen pies (on cookie sheet) B or C

Angel food cake A

Bundt or pound cakes A

Biscuits, muffins, brownies, B or C cookies, cupcakes, layer cakes, pies

Casseroles B or C

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two racks, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall.

Aluminum Foil

Aluminum foil may be used to catch a spillover.

Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack several inches below the food.

Before you begin…

The racks have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the supports, they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump on the rack support.

To remove a rack, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the rack (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the rack in.

CAUTION: Never place cooking utensils or any other items on the oven floor. There is a heating element beneath the oven floor. Placing items on the oven floor may cause the oven to overheat, resulting in damage to the oven and risk of damage or fire to cabinets.

The oven has 4 rack positions.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may 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.

Do not 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 only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it does not affect the broiling temperature. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Press the Bake and Broil Hi/Lo pads

at the same time for 3 seconds until

the display shows SF.

Press the Bake pad. A two-digit

number shows in the display.

The oven temperature can be

adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter or

(-) 35°F cooler. Tap the Temp +

pad to increase the temperature

in 1-degree increments. Tap the

Temp – pad to decrease the

temperature in 1-degree increments.

When you have made the adjustment, press the Start pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not 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 “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Oven Racks

Clean the oven racks with an abrasive cleanser or steel wool.

After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

Porcelain Oven Interior

With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the inside of the oven—top, bottom, sides, back and inside of the door—will stay new-looking for years.

Let the oven cool before cleaning. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the oven.

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled steel wool pads may also be used.

Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery container in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

■ Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical

controls and switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.

■ Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up

on the temperature sensor—it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.

■ Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven

door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
