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 front of the
oven behind the oven door.
These numbers are also on the Consumer Product
Ownership Registration Card that came with your

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.
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
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.
Oven Light
The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when the control panel
light switch is turned on.
Oven Vent
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.
8
Dven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stoa-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 "stop" position. 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
illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D, E, and F (top).
Shelf 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.
