About Your Maytag Oven

Your Maytag self-cleaning oven combines the best of two cook-

ing methods, convection and radiant (conventional) baking or roasting.

The benefits of convection cooking, used by major restaurants and

chefs all over the world are at your fingertips.

The Maytag convection oven is actually a conventional oven that

circulates heated air within the oven. As both bake and broil heating elements cycle on and off with the thermostat, a fan keeps the heated air circulating around the food.

The constantly recirculating heated air in the convection oven

strips away the layer of cooler air that surrounds food. Consequently,

many foods cook more quickly. Distributed heat makes multiple rack

cooking possible. Convection roasted meats retain their natural flavor and juiciness with less shrinkage than radiant bake roasting.

In addition to the many exclusive benefits of a convection oven, it is

also a fine full-featured "bake and broil" oven.

You can cook your "old favorite" recipes as you have in the past.

The radiant bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparing various foods when convection cooking may not be as beneficial, as

when cooking foods in covered casseroles or clay pots.

The broil element is convenient for top browning and oven broiling

of foods.

The BAKE TIME and STOP TIME features can be used with either

the convection or radiant bake oven.

The electronic controls provide additional features not possible

with other control panels, plus easy to set operation. The smooth control panel provides ease of maintenance. Temperatures for

BROIL and CLEAN modes are pre-set. Extra features such as the

ALARM and recall of program are possible because of the electronic

memory bank.

Since this manual explains how you can obtain the best use of your

oven, it is essential that you follow the instructions carefully. Th is will enable you to fully enjoy and properly maintain your Maytag oven and achieve fine cooking results with the foods you prepare.., year

after year.

Should you have any questions about using your Maytag appliance, write to us. Be sure to provide the model number of your appliance.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read before operating your oven

All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the potential through improper or careless use to create safety

problems. Therefore the following safety precautions should be observed:

1. Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

2. Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in area

where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

4. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the appliance.

5. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless

specifically recommended in this manual. All other servic-

ing should be referred to an authorized Maytag Service

Technician.

6. Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven.

7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or

use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

8. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

9. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam

escape before removing or replacing food.

10. Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pres- sure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

11. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.

12. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let

potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

13. Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket isessential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

14. Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be

used in or around any part of the oven.

15. Clean only parts listed in this manual.

16. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan and other utensils.

17. Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard during the

cleaning cycle. If not, call a serviceman before self- cleaning again.

18. DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot

even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of any oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable

materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to

cause burns D among these surfaces are: oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors,

windows of oven doors.
