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 the 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 from of the oven behind the oven door.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

•Do not touch the heating elements or the interior surface of the oven• These surfaces may

be hot enough to bum 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 the oven vent openings and surfaces near the openings, crevices

around the oven door, the edges of the door window and metal trim parts above the door.

Remember: The inside surface of the oven may

be hot when the door is opened.

• When cooking pork, follow the directions exactly and always cook the meat to an internal

temperature of at least 170°E This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present

in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

Oven

•Stand away from the oven when opening the

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

•Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

•Do not use oven for storage area. Items

storedin an ovencan ignite.

•After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease

in the broiler pan can catch fire next time you use

thepan.

•Never leave jars or cans of fat dripping on or near your oven,

Self-Cleaning Oven

• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seat. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

.Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial

oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part

of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean

cycle is used.

• Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.

oDo not heat unopened food containers•

Pressure could build up and the container

could burst, causing an injury.

° Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed. ° Keep the oven free from grease buildup•

oPlace the oven shelf in the desired position

while the oven is cool. If the shelves must be

handled when hot, do not let the pot holder

contact the heating elements in the oven.

° Never leave the oven door open when you are

not watching the oven.

• Pulling out the shelf to the shelf stop is a convenience in lifting heavy foods• It is also

a precaution against burns from touching the hotsurfaces of the door or the oven walls.

° When using cooking or roasting bags in

the oven, followthe manufacturer's directions•

° Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch fire.

.Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler

pan and other cookware.

•Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms, except as suggested in guide• Improper

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

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 Oven Controls so you understand how to use them.

2. Check the oven interior. 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 Light

The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when the control panel light switch is turned on.

Oven Vent

NOTE:

• A 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,

• You may notice a "burning" or "oily" smell the first

few times you turn your oven on. This is normal in a new oven and will disappear in a short time. To spee

the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of: hours. See the Self-Cleaning Oven section.

When the oven is on, heated air moves through a vent above the door or between door and air grille.

The vent area could get hot during oven use. The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and

good baking results. Do not block this vent.

Page 9

en Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will

stop before coming completely out of 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 bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.

This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven. To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward

you, tilt the front end upward and pull the shelf out.

Be sure the shelf is cool before touching it. To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with

the stop-locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and

push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it

goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.

Shelf Positions

The oven has six shelf supports identified in this

stration as A (bottom), B, C, D, E and F (top).

onelf positions for cooking are suggested in the Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.

NOTE: The highest position (above F) is only a support. It is not intended to be used as a shelf

position in these models that do not have the convection feature.

BAKING

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. We recommend that

you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your new oven's performance. If you think an

adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven

Thermostat section. It gives easy Do It Yours'elf

instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.

How to Set Your Oven for Baking

To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on.

1. Press the BAKE pad.

2. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad until the desired temperature is displayed.

The oven will start automatically. The word "ON" and "1000'" will be displayed. As the oven heats up,

the display will show the changing temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a

tone will sound.

NOTE: When the oven gets hot, the top and outsk surfaces of the oven get hot too.

3. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finishe and then remove the food from the oven.

NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may

continue to run after the oven is turned off.

To change the oven temperature during BAKE

cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the INCREASI or DECREASE pad to get the new temperature.

Oven Shelves

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 C or D. See the chart fl)r suggested shelf positions.

NOTE: To bake 4 layers of cake at one time,

position 2 layers on shelf B and 2 layers on shelf D with the pans staggered so that one is not directly

above the other.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means bringing the oven up to the specified

temperature before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature--

selecting a higher temperature does not shorten

preheat time.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking

cakes, cookies, pastry 'and breads. For most casserole_ and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens

without a_preheat indicator light or tone, preheat

10 minutes. After the oven is-preheated, place the

food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat from escaping.

Page 11

faking 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 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 I - to 1 ½-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.

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

tarker 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, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.

Pies

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil

pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away

from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

Cakes

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.

A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe 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.

(continued next page)

Page 12

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 may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf

several inches below the food.

Don't Peek

BAKING

(continued)

Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes provide minimum and maximum baking times such

as 'bake 30-40 minutes."

TIMED BAKING

How to Time Bake

The oven control allows you to turn the oven on or

off automatically atspecific times that you set. NOTE: Before beginning make sure the clock shows

the correct time of day.

How to Set Immediate Start and Automatic Stop

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on.

Stop Time. It also shows you the

earliest Stop Time you can set. In this example, the time of day is 2:00 and

the Cook Time is 3 hours. Adding 3 hours to the time of day equals 5:00.

4. Change the Stop Time from 5:00 to 7:00 by pressing the INCREASE pad

NOTE:

•The low temperature zone of this oven (between 150°E and 200°E) is available to keep hot cooked

foods warm. Food kept in the oven longer than two hours at these low temperatures may spoil.

• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,

stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed to sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.

Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure the oven light is off because heat

from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

• A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool

internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run after the oven is turned off.

oven will continue to cook for the programmed 3 hours and shut off

automatically at 7:00.

Press the CLEAR/OFF pad to clear the display if necessary. Remove the food from the oven. Remember, even

though the oven shuts off automatically, foods continue cooking after the

controls are off.

Page 14

ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT--

DO IT YOURSELF!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. We recommend that you

use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it, following the times given in your

recipes as a guide. If you think your new oven is too hot or too cool,

you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think

it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If

you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make

it hotter.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your new oven.

These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.

To Adjust the Thermostat:

2. Select an oven temperature between 500°R

3. Immediately, before ON is displayed, press and hold the BAKE pad for about four seconds. The

Page 15

ROASTING

Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.

Rousting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum.

Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or

Timed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound, indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed

Baking will turn the oven on and off automatically.

1. Place the shelf in A or B position. No preheating is necessary.

2. Check the weight of the meat. Place the

meat fat-side-up, or poultry breast-side-up,

on roasting rack in a '.. shallow pan. The

melting fat will baste the meat. Select a pan \

as close to the size' of the meat as possible. (The broiler pan with rack is a good pan for this.)

NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may

continue to run after the oven is turned off.

3. Press the BAKE pad.

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 rise, if desired, remove

the roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10°F. less than the temperature in the Roasting Guide).

Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot oven and therefore should be removed when

the desired internal temperature has been reached.

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

displayed.

The oven will start automatically.

The word "ON" and "100°'' will be

displayed. As the oven heats up, the display will show the changing

temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will sound.

5.. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when roasting is finished and then remove

the food from the oven.

To change the oven temperature during the roasting cycle, press the BAKE pad and then

the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to get the new temperature.

Use of Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan. This makes clean-up easier when using the pan for

marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily cured meats or basting food during cooking. Press

the foil tightly around the inside of the pan.

Questions and Answers

ROASTING

(continued)

Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with

a meat thermometer?

A. Checking the finished internal temperature at

the completion of cooking time is recommended. Temperatures are shown in the Roasting Guide. For

roasts over 8 pounds, 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.

ROASTING GUIDE

Frozen Roasts

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).

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

a roast or poultry? A. It 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.

BROILING

Broilingis cooking food by intense radiant heat

from the upper broil element in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these

directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.

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

vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart. If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer

about I18 inch thick.

2. Place the meat on the broiler rack in the broiler pail. Always use the rack so the fat drips into the broiler

pail; otherwise the .juices may become hot enough

to catch on fire.

3. Position a shelf on recommended shelf position as suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling is

done on E position, but if your oven is connected

to 208 volts, you may wish to use a higher position.

4. Leave the door open to the _-_'-__

broil stop position. The do___ stays open by itself, yetthe ._)'_/j=:__

proper temperature is . _'_/ // maintained in the oven. _ //

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 the preferred doneness.

NOTE: A fail may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fail may

continue to run after the oven is turned off.

5. Press the BROIL pad.

Press the INCREASE pad once for HI Broil or press the DECREASE pad once for LO Broil. To

change from HI Broil to LO Broil, press the BROIL pad then press the DECREASE pad once.

When broiling is finished press the CLEAR/OFF

pad. Serve the food immediately and leave the pail outside the oven to cool during the 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 and Answers

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown

as they should?

A. In sonic areas, the power (voltage) to the oven may

be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element

for 1 0 minutes before placing the broiler pan with food in the oven. Check to see if you are using the

recommended shell 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 .juices to escape. When broiling poultry or

fish, brush each side often with butter.

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use

a rack in the pan?

A. Yes. Using the rack suspends the meat over the

pail. As the meat cooks, the .juices fall into the pail, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected

by the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.

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

meat from sticking?

A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler

heal 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 clean-up easier.

(continued next page)

Page 18

BROILING GUIDE

• Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping the 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 the meat over to prevent

piercing the meat and losing the juices.

• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to

• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edge:

hang over the sides. These could soil the oven bottom.

• 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 ½ 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.

OPERATING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN

Before a Clean Cycle

Normal Cleaning Time: 3 hours

The oven must be completely cool in order to set

the self-clean cycle. We recommend venting with an open window or

using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self- clean cycle.

1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven--they can't

withstand the high cleaning temperatures. NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in

the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

2. Wipe up any spillovers, residue or ash. Gently lift the bake element to wipe up the oven floor. Both

the bake and broil elements are cleaned in the self- clean cycle. If you use soap to wipe up any excess,

rinse thoroughly to prevent staining during the

clean cycle.

3. Clean spatters or soil on the oven front frame and

the oven door outside the gasket with a dampened

cloth. The oven front frame and the oven door outside the gasket do not get cleaned by the self-

clean cycle. On these areas, use detergent and hot

water or a soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution. This will help

prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth.

Do not clean the gasket. Clean the outside front of the oven door with

soap and water. Also use soap and water to clean under the oven vent grille. Do not use abrasives

or oven cleaners. Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.

Do not rub or clean the door gasketm

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 have it replaced.

Do not let water run down through openings in the top of the door.

4. Close the oven door and make sure the oven

light is off. If the oven light is not turned off, the life of the bulb will be shortened or it may

burn out immediately. The door latches automatically after the clean cycle is set.

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.

Questions and Answers

Q. If my oven clock is not set to the correct time

of day, can I still self-clean my oven?

A. If the clock is not set to the correct time of day

you will not be able to set a delay clean to end at a specific time.

Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any part of my self-cleaning oven?

No cleaners or coatings should be used around

any part of this oven. If you do use them and do not thoroughly rinse the oven with water, wiping it

absolutely clean afterward, the residue can scar the oven surface and damage metal parts the next

time the oven is automatically cleaned.

What should I do if excessive smoking occurs during cleaning?

This is caused by excessive soil. Turn the oven off.

Open the windows to rid the room of smoke. Wait until the oven has cooled and the word "LOCK" is

off in the display. Wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

Is the "crackling" or "popping" sound I hear during cleaning normal?

A. Yes. This is the sound of the metal heating

and cooling during both the cooking and cleaning functions.

Q. Should there be any odor during the cleaning? A. Yes, there will bean odor during the first

few cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might also cause a strong odor when cleaning.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN

(continued)

What causes the hair-like lines on the enameled

surface of my oven?

This is a normal condition, resulting from

heating and cooling during cleaning. These lines do not affect how your oven performs.

Why do I have ash left in my oven after cleaning?

Some types of soil will leave a deposit which is ash.

It call be removed with a damp sponge or cloth.

My oven shelves do not slide easily. What is

the matter?

After many cleanings, the oven shelves will lose

their luster and become hard to slide. To make the

shelves slide more easily, wipe the shelf supports

with cooking oil.

My oven shelves have become gray after the

self-clean cycle. Is this normal?

Yes. After the self-clean cycle, the shelves will lose

some luster and discolor to a deep gray color.

Page 23

CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you cfficient and satisfactory service. Follow

these directions carefully in caring for your oven to

assure sa|c and proper maintenance.

Oven Shelves

Clean the shelves

with an abrasive

cleanser or steel

wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and

dry with a clean cloth.

Broiler Pan and Rack

After broiling, remove ,J[riq_JIrrrr_'l_y_'_'_'I_Ix'\_ the broiler pan from the _li,/1/_/T/it lq| Ill/It\/\'_\/\\_)

oven. Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully

pour out grease from the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the broiler pan and rack in hot water

with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad. If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack with detergent

while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned on foods.

BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THE

OVEN.

NOTE: The oven shelves may also be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven, however, the shelves will

darken in color, lose their luster and become hard to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle. Wipe

the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning

to make shelves slide more easily.

The broiler pan and rack may be cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.

Both the broiler pan and rack can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Do not clean the broiler pan or rack in the self- cleaning oven.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack anywhere in the oven.

Oven Light Bulb

NOTE: The glass cover should be removed

only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.

The fight bulb is located on the top of the oven.

Before replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Let the bulb cool completely before removing

it. For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you do, the bulb will break.

Control Panel

It's a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar

and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with

a soft cloth.

To remove: Turn to remove the cover,

then remove the bulb. To replace:

Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb.

NOTE:

• A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller than a standard 40-watt household bulb.

• Install and tighten the cover,

• Reconnect electrical power to the oven.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers,

plastic scouring pads or oven cleansers on the control panel--they will damage the finish. A 50/50

solution of vinegar and hot water solution works well.

CARE AND CLEANING

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable,

but it is heavy. You may need

help removing and replacing

the door. Do not lift the door by the handle. This can cause the N

glass to break or can cause damage to the door.

To remove the door, open it a few inches to the special stop

position that will hold the door

open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door straight up and

off the hinges.

NOTE:

• Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame.

.While working in the oven area, cover the hinges

with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent pinched fingers.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom

of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same

time. If hinges snap back towards the oven frame, pull them back out.

(continued)

TO CLEAN THE DOOR: Inside of the door:

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during

the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional

stains when the oven is heated.

The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with

a scouring pad.

Do not rub or clean 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 have it replaced. NOTE: The gasket is designed with a gap at the

bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Inside Gasket

Gasket

Outside of the door:

• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You

may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any soil will burn oft" when the elements are heated.

The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate around the bake element gently wipe around the

element with warm water.
