1. Use cooking utensils of medium weight aluminum, tight-fittingcovers, and flat bottoms which
completely cover the heated portion of the surface
unit.
2. Cook fresh vegetables with a minimum amount
of water in a covered pan.
3, “Keep an eye”
quickly to cookingtemperaturesat HIGH heat.
When food reaches cooking temperature, reduce
heat immediately to lowest setting that will keep it
cooking.
4. Use residual heat with surface cooking when-
ever possible. For example, when cooking eggs in
the shell, bring water to boil, then turn to OFF position to complete the cooking.

3. During baking, avoid frequent door openings.
Keep door open as short a time as possible when it
is opened.
4. Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before selfclean ing operation.

]1OVENVENTOUC’T
P-
Your oven is vented through an
opening located under the center
of the control panel.
During most operations it is normal
to observe moisture and/or vapor
emitting from opening. Clean this
area frequently.
INOTE:NEVER COVER OR BLOCK
VENT OPENING. TO DO SO PREVENTS THE OVEN VENT FROM
FUNCTIONINGPROPERLY DURING COOKING OR SELF-CLEANING OPERATIONS.
CAUTION: Before replacing your
oven bulb, disconnectthe electrical power for your range at the
main fuse or circuit breaker panel
or pull plug. Be sure to let the lamp
cover and bulb cool completely
before removing or replacing.
.
.
To Remove:
@Remove the 3 slotted screws in
the lamp cover as shown in
diagram.
Q Detach lamp cover and remove
bulb.
To Replace:
Put in a new 40-watt appliance

Install lamp cover. Replace 3
screws and tighten, making sure
cover fits flush with oven wall.
Reconnect electrical power to
the range.
WHEN CHANGING A COOKTOP

Use time given on recipe when
cooking first time. Oven thermostats, in time, may “drift” from the
factory setting and differences in
timing between an old and a new
oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not
unusual. Your oven has been set
correctly at the factory and is more
apt to be accurate than the oven
which it replaced. However, if you
find that your foods consistently
brown too little or too much, you
may make a simple adjustment in
the thermostat (Oven Temp) knob.

“Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration. Spill overs shbuld be cleaned up
Imediatelywith a paper towel. When the surface is cool, clean and ririse.
Drain fat, cool pan and rack slightly. (Do not let soiled pan and
rack stand in oven to cool). Sprinkle on detergent. Fill the pan
with warm water and spread cloth or paper towel over the rack.
Let pan and rack stand for a few minutes. Wash; scour if neces-
sary. Rinse and dry. OPTION: The broiler pan and rack may also
be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Pull off knobs. Wash gently but do not soak. Dry and return con-
trols to range making sure to match flat area on the knob and
shaft.
Wash all glass with cloth dampened in soapy water, Rinse and
polish with a dry cloth. If knobs are removed, do not let water run
down inside surface of glass.
Wash, rinse then polish with dry cloth. DO NOT USE steel wool,
abrasives, ammonia, acids or commercial oven cleaners which
may damage finish.
Avoid cleaning powders or harsh abrasives which may scratch the
enamel.
If acids should spill on the range while it is hot, use a dry paper
towel or cloth to wipe up right away. When the surface has
cooled, wash and rinse.
For other spills, such as fat smatterings, etc., wash with soap and
water when cooled and then rinse. Poiish with a dry cloth.
On self-cleaning oven, clean ONLYthe door liner outside the
gasket, The door is automatically cleaned if the oven is in the selfcleaning cycle. If spillover or spattering should occur in cooking
function, wipe the door with soap and water. DO NOT rub or
damage gasket. Avoid getting soap and water on the gasket or in
the slots on the door.
Avoid getting ANY cleaning materials on the gasket.
Cool before cleaning. Frequent wiping with mild soap and water
will prolong the time between major cleanings. Be sure to rinse
thoroughly. For heavy soiling, use your self-cleaning cycle often.
Yourshelves can be cleaned with the self-cleaning function in the
oven. For heavy soil, clean by hand using any and all mentioned

Cereals bubble and expand as
they cook; use large enough
saucepan to prevent boilover.
Milk boils over rapidly. Watch
as boiling point approaches.
Percolate 8 to 10 min. for 8
cups, less for fewer cups.
If you do not cover skillet,
baste eggs with fat to cook
tops evenly.
Remove cooked eggs with
slotted spoon or pancake
turner.
Eggs continue to set slightly
after cooking. For omelet do
not stir last few minutes.
When set fold in half.
Fresh fruit: Use M to 1/2cup
water per pound of fruit.
Dried fruit: Use
water as
package directs. Time
depends on whether fruit has
been presoaked. If not, allow
more cooking time.
Meat can be seasoned and
floured before it is browned, if
desired.
Liquid variations for flavor
could be wine, fruit or tomato
juice or meat broth.
Timing: Steaks 1 to 2-in.: 1to
