SAFETY

To insure safety for yoursetf, family and home,
please read your Owner's Manual carefully_
Keep it handy for reference Pay close
attention to the Safety sections.

BE SURE your oven is installed and grounded
by a qualified technician.

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.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to
four of these substances, namely benzene,

carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot,
caused primarily by the Incomplete

combustion of natural gas or L.P. fuels.
Properly adjusted appliances, indicated by

the bluish rather than a yellow flame, will
minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure

to these substances can be minimized by
further venting with an open window or using

a ventilation fan or hood.

_ WARNING

If you intend to use Liquefied Petroleum
Gas (bottled gas) all L.P. adjustments in

the Installation Instructions must be made
before using your oven.

If your oven is not properly adjusted,
flames may be too high, or the oven may

use too much fuel, release toxic fumes or

L.P. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

cook poorly.

k .... ,, ....................., ,,

The oven, as shipped from the factory, can
only be operated with natural gas. Do not try
to operate it with L.P. (bottled) gas. High

flames and toxic fumes could cause serious
injury, ff you wish to use your oven with LP.

gas, you must convert the range following
the procedure found in the Installation
instructions shipped with your oven.

It is normal to have some odor when using your
oven for the first time° This is caused by the

heating of new parts and insulation.

To help eliminate this odor, ventilate the

room by opening a window or using a

vent hood.

Let the oven preheat thoroughly when recipes
call for preheatingo Preheating is bringing the

temperature up to the temperature you will be
using during baking, When the oven has
reached the preheat temperature, a tone will

sound, Have foods nearby ready to place in
the oven,

IMPORTANT:

Never cover the _'
oven bottom or

oven rack with
aluminum foil.

Improperusecan
cause poor heat

flow, poor baking
results, and may damage the oven finish.

The oven vent is located on the back of the

range. This area could become hot during
oven use. The vent is important for proper air

circulation,, Never bHeck this vent.

In the back of the oven .you will notice a small
tube, This is a heat sensor that maintains the

temperature of the oven. Never move or bend
this tube

During any oven operation you may hear a fan
noise This is the intemal cooling fan that

keeps all electrical parts from overheating It

is not uncommon for this fan to keep running
even after the oven is turned off

Flat cookie sheets allow
air toc irc ulate all around

SHINY PANS

Shiny pans are perfect for cakes and quick
breads that have a golden brown crust

GLASS, DARK NON-STICK, OR
DARKENED BY AGE BAKEWARE

(absorb heat)

Perfect for.yeast breads, pie crust or foods that
have a brown crust The oven temperature

should be reduced by 25°F,

As the oven heats, the change in temperature
inside the oven causes water droplets to form
on the oven door glass. To prevent this, open
the door momentarily to allow the moist air out.

If baking with more than one pan, place the

pans so each has at least 1 to ! t/2" of air

space around it Place pans so one is not
directly above the other.

,N

The Oven Temperature Sensor at the back of
the oven continuously senses and controls the

temperature inside the oven. To keep a
constant set temperature, the burner will cycle
or turn on and off during cooking.

The low temperature zone of .your oven
(between 170_and 2OO°F) is available to keep
hot cooked foods warm However, foods kept
at these temperatures longer than 2 hours

may spoil

When using your convenient Delay Start
operation, foods such as dairy products, fish,
poultry, etc. ,should never sit more than 1hour

before cooking Room temperatures and the
heat from the oven light promote bacterial

Your oven has four (4) rack positions that may

be used during cooking.

The top position is only a guide, it
cannot be used as a rack position:

You may feel that your new oven cooks
differently than the oven it replaced. We
recommend that.you use your new oven a few

weeks to become more familiar with it,
following the times given in your recipes as a

guide.. See Do It Yourself Adjustment in back
of this manual to make the adjustment if .you

feel .your oven is too hot or too cool for your
cooking preference

Foil must be molded tightly

to the grid and slits cut into
the foil to match those of

the grid. This allows fats

The U S Department of Agriculture notes

that meat cooked rare is popular, but meat
cooked to on!y 140° F (rare) means that some
poisoning organisms may survive,

Moving meats away from the burner will allow

the meat to cook to the center while browning

on the outside. Using this positioning, cook
side 1at least 2 minutes longer than side 2. Be

sure the sump of the broiler pan is always

facing to the front of the oven.

Thesize, weight, thickness, starting temperature

and your preference of the doneness of the meat

will affect broiling, This chart is based on

o Choose tender cuts of meat at least 3/4"

o Trim the outer layer of fat, silt the edges to
