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.

COOKTOP GREASE FIRE:

Never pick up a flaming pan...

1. Turn off the surface elements.

2. Smother the flame with a tightly fitting lid, use baking soda, or use a dry chemical, foam, or halon-type extinguisher

Oven Cooking Tips

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

aluminümMóil

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

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

Preheating is bringing the oven temperature up to the temperature you will be using during baking Let the oven preheat when recipes call

for preheating,

To prolong the life of your oven light

bulb, follow this helpful tip: Always turn the light off when the oven is not in use or during a clean cycle. 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 behind the

right rear cooking zone. 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 oven is in use The vent is important for proper air circulation. Never block this vent.

Oven Vent Location

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat 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

Sower the fat content of a spread

product, the more noticeable these differences become. To ensure best results, use margarine, butter, or stick

OPERATION

Oven Cooking Tips (coni.)

Baking results wit! 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 Vi 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

The Oven Temperature Sensor 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).

The oven racks are designed with

stops, a convenience as well as a safety precaution The guides have a bump to prevent the racks from tilting when they are pulled out of the oven This design allows the racks to be inserted in only one way .

Bump in Rack Guide

BAKEWARE

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

SHIHY 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 that need a brown crust. The oven temperature should be reduced

by 25T.

Your oven has six (6) rack positions The top position is only a guide It cannot be used as a rack position

Ai«fays 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 pul! the

rack out several inches and then, using

two pothoiders, 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)

OPERATION

Oven Cooking Tips (oont)

You may fee! 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-ItYourself Adjustment tn the back of this manual to make the adjustment,

NOTE: On some models the Oven Control Knob must be pushed in before turning.

Your oven control has a selector knob for setting Bake, Broil, or Clean Simply turn the knob to the bake

temperature setting you want to use or to BROIL or CLEAN

OPEBATION

Broiling

Broiling is cooking by direct heat from

the upper element The oven door

should remain opened 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.

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.

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

position and/or broil foods longer.

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

the doneness of the meat will affect broiling The chart on the next page is based on meats at refrigerator temperature-

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.

1. Set the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to BROIL

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

OFF position

CARE AND CLEAmS

Seif~Cieaning Cycle

FOR A

1. Remove the broiler pan and grid, utensils and any foil that may be in the oven.

2, if you oven is equipped with

nickel oven racks, they should be removed If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-coated oven racks, they may stay in the oven during the seif-clean cycle.

Soil on the front frame and outside

3. the gasket on the door liner will

need to be cleaned by hand

Front

Frame

Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled pads, or cleansers such as Soft Scrub® to remove any soil Rinse

well with clean water and dry. Do not use oven cleaners ™ No

commercial oven cleaner or protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven

4. Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom,

5. Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you

notice it becoming worn or

frayed, it should be replaced,.

The gasket is designed to have a

5"-6“ gap at the bottom of the door.

This allows for proper air circulation

Door Pane) Gasket

It is normal for your oven door to give the appearance of not having a good sea! against the range. This is due to the gasket. The location of the gasket on the door maintains a good seal and

prevents any heat loss

Utensils should never be left in the oven during a self-clean cycle.

Nickel oven racks may be cleaned during the self-ciean

cycle, but will lose their luster and become 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.

Gray porcelain-coated oven

racks may safely be cleaned In

the oven during a self-ciean

cycle. It will be necessary to

ftfAAQA thp tif tHp nvAn

rack with a light coating of vegetable oil after a clean cycle. This will help maintain the ease

of sliding the racks in and out of the oven.

For the first clean cycle, vent the

room with an opened window or

hood vent This will reduce the

odor when heating new parts.
