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
their customers of potential
exposure to such substances,
The fiberglass insulation in a
self-cleaning oven will give off
a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning
cycle. Exposure can be
minimized by venting with an
open door or window or using
a ventilation fan or hood.
READ AND UNDERSTAND
THIS INFORMATION
NOW!
Be sure everyone in your home
knows what to do in case of
fire. Never use water on a
grease fire; it will only spread
the flames,
OVEN FIRE:
Do not try to move the pane
1. Close the oven door and turn
controls off
* CLEAN ONLY the parts listed in this
manual, Follow all cleaning
instructions
° NEVER RUB, move or damage the
door gasket on self-cleaning ranges,
2. If fire continues carefully open the
door, throw baking soda on the
fire, or use a dry chemical, foam,
or halon type extinguisher,

OPERATION
OvenCookingTips
Preheating is bringing the tempera-
ture up to the temperature you will be
using during baking.
tt is normal to have some odor when
using your oven for the first time. To
help eliminate this odor, ventilate
the room by opening a window
or using a vent hood.
IMPORTANT: Never cover the oven
bottom or oven rack with aluminum
foil Improper use can cause poor
heat flow, poor baking results, and
may damage the oven finish
The oven vent is located under the
control panel. This area could
become hot during oven use The
vent is important for proper air
circulation. Never block 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.
_"_TemperOtV_er n Sensor
The low temperature zone of your
oven (between t70 ° and 200°F) is
available to keep hot cooked foods
warm. However, foods should not be
kept at these temperatures longer
than 2 hours.
When using your convenient Delay
Start operation, foods such as dairy
products, fish, poultry, etc. should
never sit more than 1 hour before
cooking Room temperatures and the
heat from the oven light promote
bacterial growth

Opening the door often to check
foods will cause heat loss and poor

OPERATION
OvenCookingTips
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 elements will cycle or
turn on and off during cooking
if baking with more than one pan, place
the pans so each has at least 1 to 1 I/2"
of air space around it. Place pans so
one is not directly above the other.

WARE, absorb heat, and can be used
for yeast breads, pie crust or foods that
need a brown crust The oven
temperature, when using these pans
should be reduced by 25°F.
The oven racks are designed with stop
locks, a convenience as well as a safety
precaution. The guides have a bump to
prevent the racks from tilting when
racks are pulled out of the oven.

Your oven has four (4) rack positions
Above the top guide cannot be used for
a rack position.
FLAT COOKIE SHEETS, without
sides, allow air to circulate all around
the cookies for even browning
SHINY PANS reflect heat, and are
perfect for cakes and quick breads that
need a light brown crust.
Guide
======================
Always place oven racks in the
proper position while oven is
cool,
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
Temperature Adjustment in the back of
this manual to make the adjustment if
you feel your oven is too hot or too cool
for your cooking preference

OPERATION
Broiling
Broiling is cooking by direct heat
from the upper eiemenL The oven
door should remain open to the broil
stop position during broiling.
The closer you place foods to the
broil element, the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning on the outside.
Cook side t at least 2 minutes longer
than side 2. If your oven is connected
to 208 volts, you may want to use a
higher rack position and/or broil
foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature and your preference of
the doneness of the meat will affect
broiling. This chart is based on meats
at refrigerator temperature.
It is not necessary to preheat the
oven when broiling. Use the broiler
pan and grid that came with your
range. Both are designed for proper
drainage of fat and liquids.
If foil is used it must
be molded tightly to
the grid and slits cut
into the foil to match
those of the grid. This
allows fats and liquids to
drain into the broiler pan,
preventing fire and
excessive smoke.
Always remove the pan and
grid from the oven. -_
Storing or forgetting _,
a soiled broiler pan
in the oven is a potential
smoke or fire hazard.

popular, but meat cooked to only
