All other work should be done by a

qualified technician.

ALWAYS KEEP combustible wall

coverings, curtains, dishcloths, towels, potholders, and other linens a safe distance from the appliance.

NEVER HEAT unopened food containers. Pressure buildup can

cause the container to burst and cause injury.

NEVER LEAVE containers of fat or

drippings in your oven.

ALWAYS KEEP the oven and

surface unit areas free from things that wilt burn. Food, wooden utensils,

and grease buildup could catch fire. Plastic utensils could melt and

canned foods could explode. Your appliance should never be used as

a storage area.

ALWAYS KEEP your appliance clear

of things that will burn (gasoline and other flammable vapors or liquids).

NEVER TRY to clean a hot surface.

Some cleaners produce noxious fumes, and wet cloths or sponges

could cause steam burns. NEVER WEAR loose fitting clothing

when using your appliance. NEVER USE a towel or other bulky

cloth as a potholder. Make sure the pothotder is dry. Moist potholders and wet cloths or sponges could

cause steam burns. DO NOT let

potholders touch hot heating elements.

DO NOT touch heating elements,

surfaces near them, or interior oven surfaces. These may be hot enough

to cause burns even though they are dark in color. During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or flammable

material contact the elements or hot

surfaces until they have had time

to cool. Other surfaces near the oven vent openings, oven door and

window, and cooktop surfaces may

also be hot enough to cause burns.

fETY

• ONLY certain kinds of glass or ceramic cookware can be used for cooktop cooking. Make sure the cookware you choose to use is designed for cooktop cooking without breaking due to the sudden temperature change.

• ALWAYS USE care when touching heating elements. They will retain heat after the range has been turned off.

• NEVER BLOCK the oven air vent under

the right rear element.

• COOKWARE USED for cooktop cooking should be flat on the bottom and large enough to cover the heating element being used. Undersized utensils expose

the heating element and may result in

direct contact or ignition of clothing.

The proper size utensil will also improve efficiency.

. NEVER PUT heating elements in water.

° NEVER LEAVE surface heating

elements unattended at high settings.

Boilovers result insmoking or greasy spills which could catch fire.

° ALWAYS TURN utensil handles inward

and away from other surface heating

elements to reduce the risk of burns,

ignition, unintended contact, and

spillage.

- ALWAYS USE drip bowls to prevent wiring and component damage. DO NOT

use aluminum liners or foil in drip bowls, Improper use may result in risk of

electrical shock or fire.

° WHEN PREPARING flaming foods

under the vent hood, turn the fan on.

° PLACE OVEN RACKS in the desired

position while the oven is cool. If racks

must be moved while oven is hot, do

not let potholder contact the hot oven element.

° AFTER BROILING, always take the

broiler pan and grid out of the oven and clean them. Leftover grease in the broiler pan could catch fire the next

time you use your oven.

, ALWAYS USE care when opening the

oven door, Let hot air and steam escape before moving foods.

, NEVER USE aluminum foil to line the

oven bottom. Improper use of foil could start a fire, or electrical shock could

result.

OPERATIOI OvBnCookingTips

It 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. To prevent staining from

spillovers, you may place a piece of aluminum foil or a cookie sheet on the

rack below the food which may spill over.

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.

Temperature 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.

To prolong the life of your oven light bulb, follow these helpful tips: Always turn the light off when the oven is not in use. If your oven light is left on for an extended period

of time, the oven will be warm when the door is opened due to the heat generated

from the oven light bulb.

The oven vent is located under the right rear element. This area could become hot

during oven use. The vent is important for proper air circulation. Never block this

vent.

Oven Vent

Location

Opening the door often to check foods wil! cause heat loss and poor baking results.

Preheating is bringing the temperature up to the temperature you will be using during

baking. Let the oven preheat thoroughly when recipes call for preheating,

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high4at products such

as butter or margarine (80% fat by

weight--the federal requirement for

products labeled "margarine"). You will get poor results if cakes, pies, pastries,

cookies or candies are made with low-fat

spreads. Low-fat spreads contain less fat and more water, The high moisture content of these spreads affects the

texture and flavor of favorite baked

recipes_ The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable

these differences become. To ensure

best results, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70%

vegetable oil.

that need a brown crust. The oven temperature, when using these pans,

should be reduced by 25°F.

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

(turn on and off during cooking).

Baking results will be better if baking

pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. 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 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. This design allows the racks to be inserted in only one way.

SHINY PANS reflect heat, and are perfect for cakes and quick breads

that need a light brown crust. GLASS, DARK NON-STICK OR

DARKENED BY AGE BAKEWARE absorbs heat and can be used for

yeast breads, pie crust or foods

Always place oven racks in the

proper position while oven is cool.

CAUTION: When you are using the rack in the lowest position (1), you will need to use caution when pulling the

rack out. We recommend that you pull the rack out several inches and then,

using two potholders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The rack is low and you could be burned

if you place your hand in the middle

of the rack and pull all the way out.

Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using a rack in the lowest position (1).

OvenCookingTips

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. If you feel your oven is too hot or too cool for your cooking preference, see Do-It-

Yourself Adjustment in the back of this manual to make the adjustment.

1. Set the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to the desired temperature.

2. When baking is finished, turn the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to the

"OFF" position.

Roasting is cooking tender cuts of meats with dry heat. It is not

necessary to preheat your oven before roasting.

GENERAL ROASTING INSTRUCTIONS

Place meat (fatty side up) on a roasting rack or in a shallow pan

about the same size as the meat.

Place pan in No.1 or No. 2 rack position.

Set the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to the desired temperature.

Remember:

Most meats continue to cook internally after being taken out of

the oven.

Broiling is cooking by direct heat from the upper element. The oven door should remain open to the broil

stop 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.

molded tightly to the grid lf foil is used it must be 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.

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 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 will affect

broiling. This chart is based on meats

at refrigerator temperature.

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.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends to cook meat and

poultry thoroughly--meat to at least

an INTERNAL temperature of 160 ° F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL

temperature of 180 ° F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects

against food-borne illness.

1. Set the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to BROIL.
