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, ven_iBa_e _#e
room by ope_Hn_ a _Bndo_ er us_ a
ven_ hood_
Let the oven preheat thoroughly when recipes
call for preheating. 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.
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 just above the door.
This area could become hot during oven use.
The vent is important for proper air circulation.
_ever bBoc_ _hHs ven_.
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.
OVEN TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Opening the door often to check foods will
cause heat loss and poor baking results.
1]@ oven cooking tips continued
TEP8con nue ,
During any oven operation you may hear a fan
noise. This is the internal 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.
FLA T COOKIE SHEETS
(without sides)
Flat cookie sheets allow
airto circulate all around
the cookies for even
browning.
SHINY PANS
(reflect heat)
Shiny pans are perfect for cakes and quick
breads that have a golden brown crust.
GLASS, DARK NONoSTICK, 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 allowthe moist air out.
If baking with more than one pan, place the
pans so each has at least 1 to 1 1/2" of air
space around it. Place pans so one is not
directly above the other.
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.
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 1 hour
before cooking. Room temperatures and the
heat from the oven light promote bacterial
growth.
t 1] oven cooking tips continued
The oven racks are designed with stop locks,
a convenience as
well as a safety _ump n_
precaution for _c_
placing foods in or _,uu#e
removing foods from
the oven. When the
racks are placed
correctly in the oven,
the guides have a
bump to prevent the racks from tilting.
Your oven has four (4) rack positions that may
be used during cooking.

Broiling is cooking by direct
heat from the upper element.
The oven door should remain
opened to the broil stop lock
position during broiling.
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.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture notes
that meat cooked rare is popular, but meat
cooked to only 140 °F (rare) means that some
poisoning organisms may survive.
Moving meats away from the element will allow
the meat to cook to the center while browning
on the outside. Using this positioning, cook
side 1 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
wil! affect broiling. This chart is based on
meats at refrigerator temperature.
RACK
POSITION
3
o Choose tender cuts of meat at least 3/4"
thick for broiling.
o Trim the outer layer of fat silt the edges to
keep meats from curling.
Always use tongs to turn meats. Piercing
meat allows juices to escape.
,_ Salt the first side of meats just before
turning, the second side just before
serving. Brush chicken and fish with butter
several times as they broil
o Chicken and fish should be placed on the
grid skin side down. For fish, lightly grease
the grid to prevent sticking.
The closer you place foods to the broil
element, the faster foods brown on the outside
yet remain red to pink in the center.

the oven, and
outside the door
gasket will need to be cleaned by hand.
Clean these areas with hot water, soap-fitted
steel wool pads or cleansers such as Soft
Scrub® to remove any soil. Rinse well with
clean water and dry.
3, Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.
4, Do not clean the door gasket. The
fiberglass material of the oven door gasket
cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential
for the gasket to remain intact. Ifyou notice
it becoming worn, frayed, or displaced on
the door, it should be replaced.
The door gasket _oRPANEL GASKET
is designed to
have a 5-6" gap
at the bottom of
the door. _
This allows for Doe,u,_
proper air circulation. It is normal for your oven
door to give the appearance of not having a
good seal against the range. This is due to the
gasket. The location of the gasket on the oven
door maintains a good seal and prevents any
heat loss.
Utensils should never be le#
in a self-clean cycle.
The oven racks may be
cleaned during the selbclean
cycle, but will lose their luster
and becem_ hard to slide, if you choose
to leave them in during the cycle, wiping
them down with vegetable oil after the
cycle will help them slide easier.
Al_vays make sure the oven light is off
during _he self-clean cycle _o prolong
the life of the bulb.
For the first clean cycle, vent the room
with an opened window or hood vent,
This will prevent the strong odor from
heating new parts.
o When the door locks, _-GC_ #GGB will
show in the display. The oven temperature wilt
need to drop below the locking temperature
before the door can be opened. The word
LGCK_ DGGB will go out in the display,
o If LOCK DGGR flashes in the display, the
door is not closed completely, simply press
on the door.
Clean only as touch-up between clean cycles.
Use dishwashing liquid, warm water, or
soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse well after
cleaning and dry.
