iMPORTANT SAFETY

THIS tNFORMATBON NOW.w

Should you ever need it, you wilU not have t_e for reading,

Be sure everyone in your home

knows what to do in case of fire. Never use water on a grease fire -

Close oven door and turn controls off.

If fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire, or use a dry chemical, foam, or halon type extinguisher.

NOTBCE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforce-

ment Act requires the governor of Callforn|a to publlsh

a list of substances known to the state to cause birth

defects or other reproductive harm and requires busi- nesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such

substances. The fiberglass Insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a

very small amount of carbon monoxide durtng the clean-

lng cycle. Exposure can be rnlnfmized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood,

AEMOVAL OF PACKAGING TAPE:

To remove adhesive left from packing tape and ensure you do not damage the _iinish of your new

appliance, use an application of household liquid dish washing detergent, mineral oil, or cooking

oil. Apply with soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe with soft cloth. DO NOT use plastic pad or

equivalent. Wipe dry and then apply an appli. ance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the

surface, This procedure is also safe for the face of microwave doors and other plastic parts.

NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from

chrome trim on oven parts. _t CANNOT be removed if baked on.

OVEN COOK|NG

GENERAL RULES

, When cooking a food for the first time in your new

oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Your new oven has been set correctly at the factory

and Is apt to be more accurate than the oven it replaced.

After you have used your oven for awhile, If you feel

your oven should be hotter orcooler, you can adjust

ityourself. See TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENTS in this manual.

• NO PEEKING.-- Opening the door too often to check

food during baking will allow heat loss and may

cause poor baking results,

• Theremaybesomeodorwhentheovenisflrstused. This Is caused by the heating of new parts and

Insulation.

• Do not cover an entire oven rack with foil The foil can block normal heat flow and cause poor baking results° Do not place any foil directly above the bake

element. Foil used on the oven bottom under the element may damage the oven surface, therefore, it

should not be used_

PREHEATING

When recipes require preheating, have food nearby before you open the oven door, if the oven door is

allowed to remain open for more than a brief time, the preheat temperature will be lost.

Let the oven preheat thoroughly before cooking

baked products. Watch forthe Preheat indicator

Light to come on or listen for a notification tone. If

your oven is not equipped with either of these, preheat for 10 minutes and put the food In the oven.

BAKEWARE

• Cookies should be baked on flat cookle sheets

without sides to allow the air to circulate properly.

• Cakes, muffins, and quick breads should be baked

in shiny pans -- to reflect the heat -- because they should have a light golden crust. Yeast breads and pie crusts should be baked in glass or dull (non-

shiny) pans -- to absorb the heat -- because they should have a brown, crisp crust.

• Be sure the underside of the pan is shiny, too. Darkened undersides will absorb the heat and may

cause over-browning on the bottom of your food.

, Oven temperatures should be reduced 25 degrees

below recommended temperatures ifexterior of pan is predarkened, darkened by age or oven-proof

glass.

BAKING:

, Always follow recipe carefully.
