SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Read all instructions before using this appliance. When using gas or electrical sppliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

• AI_Ranges Can Tip tnjury to Persons

Coutd Result install Anti-Tip

Device Packed With Range

• See nsta at on instructions

,,i,.,,, ,,=,

WARN|NG!

To prevent accidental

tipping of the range from abnormal use, including excessive loading of the oven door_ attach the range to the wall or floor by installing the Anti-Tip device supplied._ If the range is moved for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the Anti-Tip device is re-engaged properly when the range is slid back in the opening. Failure to do so could result in the range tipping and may cause personal injury. To inspect the Anti-Tip device, remove the storage drawer and look to see if the rear leg leveler fully engages the slot in the

bracket.

If the Anti-Tip device supplied with the range does not fit this application, use the universal Anti-Tip device WB2X7g09 Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®

These ANTI-TIP bracket installation instructions are for wood or concrete

floors and walls Any other type of construction may require special installation techniques to provide adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP

bracket to the floor and wall

The use of this bracket does not

prevent tipping of the range when bracket is net properly installed

NOTE: The installation of the ANTI-TIP bracket must meet all local

codes for securing appliance

Step 1

Locating the bracket

A_Locate the bracket against the rear

wall and either the right or left cabinet If the countertop overhangs the cabinet, offset the bracket from the cabinet by the amount of overhang Ifthere is no adjacent cabinet, position the edge

of the bracket at the desired location of the range side panel

BoUse the bracket as a template

and mark 2 hole positions on the wall and 2 hole positions on the

floor Use either the wood or concrete floor set of positions, depending on your floor type

Step 3 Checking the installation

A. Cemptete the installation of

the range per the installation

instructions provided with it Be sure to install the range so thai its rear leveling leg slides beneath the ANTI-TIP bracket See Fig° 1

B. Check if the ANTI-TIP bracket is

installed and engaged properly Remove the kick panel or storage drawer and inspect the REAR

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, IMPORTANT: The health of

some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range, Move birds to another welFventilated room.

OvenCooking Tips

It is normal to have some odor when using your oven for the first time To hetp eliminate this odor, ventilate the

room by opening a window or using

a vent hood

Opening thedoor often to check foods wiiI cause heat less and poor baking results

Preheating is bringing the oven temperatureup tothe temperature you will be using during baking Let theoven preheat when recipes call forpreheating

Never cover the oven bottom with aluminum foil.

You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan and broiler grid, However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it }ust like the grid

Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover To do so, place a

small sheet of foil on a lower rack several inches below the food

Never entirely covet a rack with aluminum foi! This will disturb the

heat circulation and result in poor baking

The oven vent is located under the right rear element This area could become hot during oven use It is

normal for steam to come out of the vent and/or collect moisture underneath when the oven is in

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

Oven Vent

Location

Toprolong thelife of your ovenlight bulb, follow thisheipfuitip:Always turnthe light off when theoven is not in useor during a seGclean cycle If your appliance does not have a window in the door. you will need to open the door tomake sure the ovenlight is off If your oven light is left on for an extended period of time,the ovenwill be warm when the door is

opened due tothe heatgenerated from theoven light bulb

Mostrecipes for baking havebeen developed using high-fatproducts such asbutter or margarine (80% fat by weight--the federal requirementfor products tabeled 'margarine") Youwilt get poor resultsifcakes, pies_pastries, cookies or candies aremade with low-fat spreads Low-fatspreads contain less fat andmore water The high moisture content ofthese spreads affects the textureandflavorof Iavoritebaked

recipes Thelower the fat contentof a spreadproduct, the morenoticeable

thesedifferences become To ensure

best results,use margarine butter, er stick spreads containing at [easi70% vegetable oil

OPERATION OvenCookingTips(cont.)

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible tf baking with

more than one pan, place the pans so

each has at least t to 1W of air space around it If baking four cake layers at

the same time, place two layers on

rack 2 and two layers on rack 4 Stagger pans on the rack so one is not directly above the other

FLAT COOKIE SHEETS, without sides, allow air to circulate att around the cookies for even browning

!,i i ,i

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

that need a light brown crust

GLASS, DARK NON-STICK, OR DAFIKENED-BY_AGE BAKEWARE absorbs heat, and can

be used for yeast breads, pie crust, or foods that need a brown crust The oven temperature should be reduced by 25°F

The OvenTemperatureSensor continuouslysensesand controls the

temperatureinside the oven To keep a conslant set temperature, theelements will cycle (turn on and off during cooking}

The racks have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the rack supports (1 through 6), they will stop before coming completely out, and will not tilt

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump on the rack support

To remove a rack, pult it toward you, titt the front end up and pu_lit out

To replace, place the end of the rack (stop-lacks} on the support, tilt up the front and push the rack in

NOTE; The rack is not designed to slide out at the special low rack (1) position

OPERATION OvenCookingTips(cont.)

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 cooi for your cooking preference, see Do-It-Yourself Temperature Adjustment in the back of this manua! to make the adjustment

OPERATION

Broiling

Broiling is cooking by direct heat from the upper element The oven door should remain opened to the broit 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

n = n,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, H i1

lf foi! 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. Storingor 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 _NTERNAL temperature of 160_F

and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of t80°F Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against food-borne illness

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

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

positien andtor broil foods longer

The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your preference of

the aloneness of the meat will affect

broiling The chart on the next page

is based on meats at refrigerator

temperature

1. Press the BROIL HI/LO pad once for HI Broil

To change to LO Broil, press the BROIL HIILO pad again

2. Press the START pad
