How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove adhesive left from packaging tape 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.

IMPOR TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
• The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
• The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure
can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
• Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this guide.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your oven unless it is specifically recommended in this guide. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN CABINETS ABOVE AN OVEN. CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE OVEN TO REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the oven.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are not watching the oven.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains or drapes a safe distance from your oven.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot holders and other linens a safe distance from your oven.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your oven.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the oven. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with hot heating elements and may cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot heating element.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door. They could damage the oven or cause
severe personal injury.
• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure. Never allow anyone to climb, sit,
stand or hang on the oven door.
4
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the oven.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use a multi­purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered completely
by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam­type fire extinguisher.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are not watching the oven.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not store flammable materials in an oven.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
• 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 the oven vent
opening, surfaces near the opening, 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°F. 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 door. The 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 ducts unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool. If the shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holders contact the heating elements.
• Pulling out the shelf 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 your 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 the broiler pan out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in
the broiler pan can catch on fire next time you use the pan.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or near your oven.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven
bottom, except as suggested in this guide. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Clean only parts listed in this Use and Care Guide.
Self-Cleaning Oven
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. 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.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan, grid and other cookware.
• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting the self-cleaning operation.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply.
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how to
set them properly.
2. Check the inside of the oven. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly to give sure, sturdy support.

NOTE:
• 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 time. To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for 4 hours. See the Operating the Self-Cleaning Oven section.
• You will hear a convection fan while cooking with the convection feature. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.
• 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.
show “C” (Centigrade).
4. Press START.

Cookie Sheets
As an added convenience for you when using your new convection oven, we have provided three cookie sheets. The cookie sheets provide uniform
baking. They are dishwasher safe. They have an easy grip lip. They are durable and will not warp or rust.
Insulated cookie sheets are made of two layers of aluminum with an insulating layer of air. Aluminum is an oven baking metal. It is not however, a non-stick surface. If your recipe recommends greasing, spray lightly with a non-stick vegetable coating; wipe off the excess. If preferred, put a light film of shortening on the cookie sheet.
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that, when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely out of the oven, and will not tilt when removing food from 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.
Cookies should cool at least 2 minutes before removing them from the sheet.
Your insulated cookie sheets can be used for convection baking or regular baking. However, if
you choose not to use Convection Bake for baking cookies and are baking on the insulated cookie sheets, you may find that the recommended baking time needs to be increased 3 to 5 minutes.
To remove the shelf
Bump
from the oven, pull the shelf toward you, tilt the front end upward and pull the shelf out.
To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with the stop-locks (curved extension of the 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 seven shelf supports identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D, E, F and G (top).
Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the Convection Cooking, Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.

What is Convection?

CONVECTION COOKING

In a convection oven,
a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time with convection heat.

Because food is heated faster in a convection oven when using the convection modes, many types of food can be cooked at lower temperatures than those suggested for regular ovens. Do remember that recipe books often give times and temperatures for cooking in regular ovens. Convection ovens make it possible to reduce the temperature by 25°F.
CAUTION: The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.
When should you use Convection Bake or Convection Roast?
To help you understand the difference between convection bake and roast and traditional bake and roast, here are some general guidelines.
In convection bake, heat comes from the heating element in the rear of the oven. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the food. Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.
In regular or traditional baking, the bottom heating element heats the air in the oven which then cooks the food.
Convection Bake
• Ideal for baked foods cooked on multiple shelves. (Additional shelves may be ordered. Pub No. 3-A014).
• Good for large quantities of baked foods.
• Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.
Traditional Bake
• Foods such as layer cakes have a more level top crust when not baked with convection heat.
In convection roast, heat comes from the top heating element. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
Convection Roast
• Large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
• Roasting pans with low sides to allow air movement around food.
Traditional Roast
• Less tender cuts of meat because these need to cook a long time in liquid to become tender.
• Cooking bag
• Foil tent
• Covered dish
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.
• Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.
• Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
14
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat­resistant to temperatures of 400°F. can also be used.
When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

CONVECTION BAKING

As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for convection baking.
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.
Check foods for doneness at the minimum suggested cooking time.

Multi-Shelf Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on two, three or more shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may increase cook times slightly for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Multi-shelf baking provides very good results with cookies, biscuits and other quickbreads.
Use the pan size recommended in the recipe. Some package instructions for frozen casseroles or
main dishes have been developed using commercial convection ovens. For best results in this oven, preheat the oven and use the temperature on the package.
When baking on three shelves, place
one shelf in the bottom (A) position, one on the third (C) position and one in the fifth (E) position.
NOTE: When convection baking with only one shelf, follow the shelf positions recommended in Oven Shelves in the Baking section.
CAUTION: Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using a shelf in the lowest position (A).

CONVECTION ROASTING
Meats cooked in a convection oven are dark brown on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. In most cases, cooking time will be less when using the Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking time is reduced by 10 minutes per hour.
To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it, using the temperature probe provided with the oven.
The special roasting rack allows heated air to circulate over and under the meat. This allows the meat to brown on all sides.
Convection Roasting Rack
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the lowest shelf position (A).
When you are convection roasting you will use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack.
The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters. The rack holds the meat.
1. Place the shelf in the lowest shelf position (A).
2. Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the
roasting rack over them making sure the posts on the roasting rack fit into the holes in the broiler pan.
3. Place the meat on the special roasting rack. See the Roasting with the Probe section to insert the
probe correctly. NOTE: It is important that the broiler pan and
grid be used with the roasting rack for best convection roasting results.
NOTE:
• Use the temperature recommended in the Convection Roasting Guide.
• Preheating is not necessary.
• Check foods for doneness at the minimum suggested time.
• Use the special roasting rack with the broiler pan and grid.

BAKING

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. It is recommended that you operate the oven for a number of weeks to become familiar with your new oven’s performance.
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct
position before you turn the oven on.

20
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 position C or D. See the chart for 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 casseroles 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.
Baking Pans Pan Placement
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 also absorb heat. When baking in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to be reduced by 25°F.
• If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find that you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F. to prevent over-browning.
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 1- to 1 as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other.

BAKING
(continued)
Cookies
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 darker 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 during baking, use only one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.
Also see the Multi-Shelf Baking section.
Pies Cakes
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.

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.
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.
Don’t Peek
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.”
22
DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently during cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking times longer. Your baking results may also be affected.

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.
The thermostat adjustment for Baking also affects Convection Baking and Convection Roasting.

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 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.
How to Set Your Oven for Roasting
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 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 cook slightly after being removed from the oven. The internal temperature will rise about 5° to 10°F. during the recommended standing time of 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve. To compensate for this rise in temperature, you may want to remove the roast 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.

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.
26
ROASTING WITH THE PROBE
See the Roasting Guide.
Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe
A temperature probe has been provided for use in your new oven. This probe is designed to withstand high temperatures. Temperature probes provided with other products, such as those used for microwave ovens, may not be designed to withstand high temperatures. Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe.
Never leave your probe inside the oven during a self­cleaning cycle.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want. When the internal temperature of the food reaches the temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.
The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at one end and a plug at the other end that goes into the outlet in the oven.
After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or on the broiler pan grid, follow these directions for proper probe placement.
1. Lay the probe on the
outside of the meat along the top or side and mark with your finger where the edge of the meat comes to on the probe. The point should rest in the center of the thickest meaty part of the roast.
Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the meat and the outlet in the oven. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing the probe—they might damage it. TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE SURE FOOD IS COMPLETELY DEFROSTED BEFORE INSERTING.
Cable
Plug
Handles
2. Insert the probe into
the meat up to the point marked off with your finger. It should not touch the bone, fat or gristle.
No more than 2 inches of the probe, not counting the handle, should be left exposed outside the meat.

Roasting Questions and Answers
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 if you did not use the probe while cooking. Temperatures are shown in the Roasting Guide. For roasts over 8 lbs., 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

Broiling is 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.
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 1/8 inch thick.
Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan. Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough to catch fire.
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.
How to Set Your Oven for Broiling
1. Press BROIL.
BROIL
2. Press BROIL again (alternates between LO
Broil and HI Broil).
Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door
stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven.
Turn the food using tongs only once during broiling. Time 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: Broil will not work if the temperature probe is plugged in.

Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining into 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. 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 the meat drier. Juices are protected by the grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling? A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to evaporate. Always salt
after cooking. Piercing the meat with a fork also allows the juices to escape. Turn the meat with tongs instead of a fork.
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as they should? A. In some areas, 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 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. You may need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
31

BROILING GUIDE

• Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping 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 meat over to prevent piercing the meat and losing juices.
• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.

• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edges hang over the sides because the dripping fat will soil the oven.
• The broiler does not need to be preheated. However, for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat if desired.
• Use Lo Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing cooking time given in this guide 1

OPERATING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN
Before a Clean Cycle
Normal Cleaning Time: 4 hours
1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware
and any aluminum foil from the oven—they can’t withstand the high cleaning temperatures.
NOTE: The oven shelves and the convection roasting rack may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster
and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make shelves slide more easily.
2. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. If you use
soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to prevent staining.

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 self­clean 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. Never use a commercial oven cleaner in or around the self-cleaning oven.
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 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.
Do not let water run down through openings in the top of the door. To help prevent water from
getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door as far as it will go.
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.
Important
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Questions and Answers
(continued)
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.
Q. Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any
part of my self-cleaning oven?
A. 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.
Q. What should I do if excessive smoking occurs
during cleaning?
A. 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 words “LOCKED DOOR” are off in the display. Wipe up the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.
Q. 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 be an odor during the first
few cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might also cause a strong odor when cleaning.
Q. What causes the hair-like lines on the enameled
surface of my oven?
A. This is a normal condition, resulting from
heating and cooling during cleaning. These lines do not affect how your oven performs.
Q. Why do I have ash left in my oven after
cleaning?
A. Some types of soil will leave a deposit which is
ash. It can be removed with a damp sponge or cloth.
Q. My oven shelves do not slide easily. What is
the matter?
A. 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.
Q. My oven shelves have become gray after the
self-clean cycle. Is this normal?
A. Yes. After the self-clean cycle, the shelves will
lose some luster and discolor to a deep gray color.

CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for your oven to assure safe and proper maintenance.

Broiler Pan and Grid

After broiling, remove the broiler pan and grid from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully pour the grease from the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with detergent while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.
Oven Light Bulb
NOTE: The glass cover should be removed only when
cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip. The light 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.
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.
BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF AND ALL SURFACES ARE COOL BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THE OVEN.
Do not store a soiled pan and grid anywhere in the oven.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in the self­cleaning oven.

Lift-Off Oven Door
CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
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 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 as the hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.
• While working in the oven area, cover the hinges with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel on the frame.
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 against the oven frame, pull them back out.
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 soap-filled 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 gasket
Outside of the door:
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. DO NOT let water run down through openings in the top of the door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door.
• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.
• Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
Oven Shelves and Convection Roasting Rack
Clean the shelves and the convection roasting rack with a mild abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After
cleaning, rinse the shelves and the roasting rack with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE: The oven shelves and the convection roasting rack may be cleaned in self-cleaning oven.
However, they will darken, lose their luster and the shelves will become hard to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle.
Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self­cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.
38
Roasting rack
Oven shelf

Probe

The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap and water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the temperature probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.
Do not immerse the temperature probe in water. Do not store the temperature probe in the oven.

Cookie Sheets

The cookie sheets are designed to breathe and therefore are not water tight. If you wash them by hand, they should not be allowed to soak. If for some reason they do get soaked, stand them on edge on a towel so the water will drain out. You may also place the pan upside down in a 250°F. oven for 30 minutes to dry out the moisture. They can also be washed in the dishwasher.
Always allow the cookie sheets to cool before washing.
As with all aluminum cookware, the insulated cookie sheets may darken with age.
Do not clean in the self-cleaning oven.
Control Panel
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use of the oven. Clean with mild soap and water or
vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven cleansers on the control panel—they will damage the finish.
A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.
Metal Parts Glass Window
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces; wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.
To clean the outside glass of the oven window, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down inside openings in the glass or the openings in the top of the oven door while cleaning.
