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
Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set to Baking or Timed Baking (on some models). (You may hear a slight
clicking soun~ indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed Baking (on some models) 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 it fat­side-up (or poultry breast side-up), on a roasting grid 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 grid is a good pan for this.)

Most meats continue to aok 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 roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10”F. less than temperature in the 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.
3. Turn the OVEN SET knob (on some models) to BAKE and the OVEN TEMP knob to the temperature you desire.
4. After roasting is complete, turn the OVEN SET knob (on some models) and the OVEN TEMP knob
OFF.

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 hits, 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 lbs., check with thermometer at half-hour intexvals after half the cooking time
has passed.
Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to
carve it?
A. Roasts are easier to s~iceif 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 not necessary to preheat your oven. Q. When buying a roas~ 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.

BROILING
Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper 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.
Turn the food only onw during broiling. Time thefoods for the firstside according to the Broiling Guide.
1. If themeat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart. If desir~ the fat maybe trirnme~ leaving the layer about 1/8 inch thick.
2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.
Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler pm, otherwise the juices may become hot enough to catch on fire.
3. Position the shelf on the recommended shelf
position as suggested in Broiling Guide.
Turn the foo~ then use the times given for the second side as a guide to the preferred doneness.
4. Leave the door open to
the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven.
5. Turn the OVEN SET (on some models) and the OVEN TEMP knobs to BROIL. Preheating the elements is not necessary.
6. When finished broiling, turn the OVEN SET knob (on some models) and the OVEN TEMP knob to OFF (depending on your model). Serve the food
immediately, leaving the broiler pan and grid 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 the broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in itjust like the grid.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent the 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 & Answem
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiiing?
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 allows juices to escape. When broiling poultry or fiib brush each side often with butter.
Q.
why are my meats not turning out as brown as
they should?
A Insome area the power (voltage) to the oven may
be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element for 10 minutes before placing the broiler pan with the food in the oven. Check to see if you are using the
recommended shelf position. Broil for the longest period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide. Turn the food only once during broiling.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent
meat from sticking?
A No. Thebroiler grid is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent the meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying the broiler grid lightly with a
vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make
clean-up easier.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a
grid in the pan?
A Yes. Using the grid 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 grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
(continued ne.xtpuge)

BROILING GUIDE
Always use a broiler pan and grid. They are designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping
juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

CARE AND CLEANIN
Proper care and cleaning are important so your range will give you efficient
and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for it to
help assure safe and proper maintenance. BE SURE ELECTRIC POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART
OF THE ILANGE.
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason,
A
be sure anti-tip device is re-engaged properly when the range
is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.
LifWp COOktOp (on some models)
Some models have a cooktop that can be lifted up for easier cleaning. To make cleaning easier, the
entire cooktop may be lifted up and supported in the up position.
Be sure all surface units are turned off before raising the cooktop. The surface units and drip pans
do not need to be removed before raising the cooktop, however, you may remove one to make raising the cooktop easier. There are two side supports that lock into position when the cooktop is lifted up.
After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, mild soapy water and a clean clo@ lower the cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.
To lower the cooktop, push the rods back and gently lower the cooktop until it rests in place.

CARE AND CLEANNG
Surface Units and Drip Pans
To cleanthe surfaceunits, turn the control to the highest setting for a minute. The coils will bum off any soil.
CAUTION
Be sure all the controls are turned to OFF and
surface units are cool before attempting to remove them.
. Do not immerse the surface units in liquids of any kind
Do not clean the surface units in a dishwasher.
Do not bend the surface unit plug terminals.
. Do not attempt to clean, adjust or in any way repair
the plug-in receptacle.
To remove a surface unit: To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the surface units
must be removed first.
SurfaceUnit
(continued)
To replace a surface unit: Replace the drip pan into the recess in the
cooktop. Make sure opening in the pan lines
up with the receptacle.
. Insert the terminals of the surface unit through
the opening in the drip pan and into the receptacle.
. Guide the surface unit into place so it rests evenly.
Drip Pans
Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans. For best results, clean the drip pans by hand. Place
them in a covered container (or a plastic bag) with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse with
clean water and polish with a clean soft cloth. The drip pans may also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Clean the area under the drip pans often.
Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch fire. Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil
so close to the receptacle could cause shock fire or darnage to the range.
Lift the surface unit about 1 inch above the drip pan and pull it out.
Do not lift the surface unit more than 1 inch. If you do, it may not lie flat on the drip pan when you plug it back in.
Repeated lifting of the surface unit more than 1 inch above the drip pan can permanently damage the receptacle.

If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleanem: . Do not spray 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 &en 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 ove~ cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Continuous-cleaning oven Interior (on some models)
Special Careof Continuous-Cleaning Oven Interior: Do not attempt to clean the oven until you have
read this section. The Continuous-Cleaning Oven cleans itself while
cooking. The oven interior is finished with a special
coating that cannot be cleaned in the usual manner with soap, detergents, steel wool pads, commercial oven cleaners, coarse abrasive pads or coarse brushes. Use of such cleansers and/or the use of oven sprays will cause permanent damage.
The special coating is a porous ceramic material, which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to the touch. If magnifie~ the surface would appear as peaks, valleys and sub-surface “tunnels.” This rough finish tends to prevent grease spatters from forming little beads or droplets that run down the side walls of a hard-surface oven liner, leaving unsightly streaks that require hand cleaning. Instea& when spatter hits the porous finish, it is dispersed and partially absorbed This spreading action increases the exposure of oven soil to heated air and makes it somewhat less noticeable.
Soil may not disappear completely and at some time after extended usage, stains may appear that cannot be remove~
The special coating works best on small amounts
of spatter. It does not work well with larger spills,
especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures. For this reaso~ the oven is equipped with a removable, replaceable aluminum foil oven bottom liner which
protects the porous bottom of the oven from spillovers.
This special coating is not used on the oven
shelves or on the inside of the oven door.
These should be removed for cleaning to prevent
damage to the Continuous Cleaning Oven coating. Use care in removing and replacing the shelves and
in placing and removing dishes and food to avoid scratching, rubbing or othenvise damaging the porous
finish on the oven walls.
To Clean the Continuous-Cleaning Oven:
1.
Let the range parts cool before handling. We
recommend rubber gloves be worn when cleaning.
2. Remove shelves and cookware, including the broiler pan and rack.
3. Remove excess spills and boilovers from the aluminum foil oven bottom liner before
the liner from the oven. This is to prevent excess liquids from spilling onto the porous finish.
Then remove aluminum foil bottom liner and
clean with a damp cloth. (Before cleaning or
removing the aluminum foil liner, lift the bake
element out of the way.)
4. Soil visibility maybe reduced by operating
the oven at 400”F. Close the door and set temperature control to 400”F. Time for at least 4 hours. Repeated cycles maybe necessary before improvement in appearance is apparent.
removing
Remember: During the operation of the oven, the door, window and other range surfaces will get hot enough to cause burns. Do not touch. Let the range cool before replacing the oven shelves and aluminum foil oven bottom.
5. If a spillover or heavy soiling occurs on the porous
surface, as soon as the oven has coole~ remove as much of the soil as possible using a small amount of
water and a stiff-bristle nylon brush. Use water
sparingly and change it frequently, keeping it as clean as possible, and be sure to blot it up with paper towels, cloths or sponges. Do not rub or scrub with
paper towels, cloths or sponges, since they will leave unsightly lint on the oven finish. If water leaves a white ring on the finish as it dries, apply water again
and blot it with a clean sponge, starting at the edge of the ring and working toward the center.
Do not use soap, detergen~ steel wool pa~ commercial oven cleaner, silicone oven sprays, coarse pads or coarse brushes on the porous surface. These products will spot, clog and damage
the porous stice and reduce its ability to work. Do not scrape the porous surface with a knife
or spatula-they could permanently damage the finish.

CARE AND CL
(continued)
How to Ilernove the storage Drawer or Kick panel to clean Under the Range
The area under the range can be reached easily for
cleaning by removing the botiom drawer (on some modeis). To remove, puIl the drawer out all the way, tilt up the front and remove it. To replace, insert glides
at the back of the drawer beyond the stop on range glides. Lift the drawer if necessary to insert easily. Let the front of the drawer down, then push in to close.
E4NING
To clean under models with a front kick panel, remove the
panel by pulling it straight out at the bottom. To replace the panel, first hook the top tabs on and then the bottom tabs.
Control Panel and Knobs
Clean up any spills or spatters with a damp cloth. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.
Clean the control panel with mild liquid dish detergent and a soft cloth. Rub tie control panel lightly.
CAUTION: Do not use abrasives of any kind on the control panel. The lettering on models with touch pads is sensitive to abrasives and pressure.
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in soap and water but do

not soak.
.
Oven Vent
The oven is vented through an opening under the right rear surface unit. Never cover the opening with aluminum foil or any other material. This would prevent the oven vent from working properly.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the outside oven door, sides, control panel and drawer front. Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.
Glass Window (on some models) and Glass Surfaces
To clean the outside glass window (on some models) and glass surfaces, use a glass cleaner.
Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not use commercial oven cIeaners, cleansing
powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.
Metal Parts
I
Do not use steel wool, abrasive%ammonia or commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces;
wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.
