Installation of unit must be in accordance with local and national fire codes and witli clearances from combu-stible surface or materials as listed in the Installation Instructions.
Be certain all packing materials are removed from the oven before operating, to prevent fire or smoke damage should the packing material ignite.

Circuit Breaker or Fuse

Locate imd mark circuit breaker or fuse. Never replace a blown fuse or reset a circuit breaker until you know what has caiLsed the fuse to blow or circuit to be broken. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the correct amperage, do
not use a substitute.

General

Never use oven to heat or warm a room.
This instniction is based on safety considerations, to prevent potentiell hazards and to prevent damage to the
unit.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable materials, vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Servicing

Do not repair or replace any part of this unit unless such service is specifically recommended in this booklet. All servicing not specifically recommended in this booklet must be referred to a qualified service technician.
Always disconnect unit or cut-off power to unit by removing fuse or by tripping circuit breaker manually to the “off” position, before any servicing.
IN CASE OF FIRE:
1. Tum oven controls and ventilating hood, if equipped, off immediately.
2. Smother fire or flame, use dry chemical, or a foam-type extinguisher.
• If the fire is in the oven, smother it by closing the oven door.
• Baking soda is also effective, if available.
• Do not use water on grease fires.

Oven Safety

Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or
steam escape before remoring or replacing food.
Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy pot holders. Always avoid reaching into oven to place or remove food.
PAGE 2
Always place oven racks in the desired positions while oven is cool. If a rack must be removed while hot, be careful to avoid contact of pot
holders with hot oven elements.

Child Safety

l.Do not leave children alone or unsupervised
near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
2. Children should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
3. Children MUST be taught that the appliance
and utensils in or on it can be hot.
4. Children should be taught that an appliance is
not a toy. They should not be allowed to play
witli controls or otlier parts of the unit.
5. Let hot utensils cool in a
safe place, out of reach of small children.
6. Caution: Do not store
items of interest to children in cabinets above an apphance. Children climbing on tlie appliance to reach items could be seriously injured. An appliance should not be used as a step stool to cabinets above.

Venting

Turn off oven hght before clean cycle. The hfe of the bulb may be shortened if left on during the clean cycle.
Clean oven frame, door frame and around the oven vent with a non-abrasive cleaning agent
such as Bon Ami or soap and water. These areas are not exposed to cleaning temperatures and should be cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during the clean cycle.
Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the
oven bottom to prevent excessive smoking during the clean cycle.
Wipe up acid spillovers such as lemon juice,
tomato sauce or milk-based sauces and sugary spillovers. Porcelain enamel is acid resistant, not acid proof The porcelain finish may discolor if acid spills are not wiped up immediately.
Do not use oven cleaners or oven finer protective coatings of any land on the self-clean oven finish or around any part of the oven. To prevent damage, do not clean or rub the gasket
around the oven door. The gasket is designed to seal in heat during the clean cycle.
PAGE 7

During Self-Cleaning

when the SELF CLEAN pad is pressed and the
door is locked, the oven will automatically begin
to heat to cleaning temperatures. As the oven reaches cleaning temperatures, the
LOCK indicator will turn on to show that an internal lock mechanism has engaged. At this point, the oven door can not be unlocked and opened.
To prevent damage to the door and lock lever, do not force the door open when the LOCK indicator is displayed.
The first few times the oven is cleaned, some smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal and will reduce or disappear with use. If the oven is heavily soiled, or if the broiler pan is left in the oven, smoke and odor may occur.
As the oven heats and cools, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage your apphance.
3. Press the SELF CLEAN pad.

automatically be cancelled.
4. Press CLOCK pad and the current time of day will reappear in the display. CLEAN and ON will remain in the display to show that the oven is in a clean cycle.

After Self-Cleaning

About one hour after the end of the clean cycle,
the internal lock will disengage and the LOCK indicator will turn off. At this point, the door can be unlocked and opened. Move the door lock lever to the left or unlocked position and open the door.
Some soil may leave a hght gray, powdery ash which can be removed with a damp cloth. If soil remains, it indicates that the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be removed during the next clean cycle.
If the oven racks do not shde smoothly after a
clean cycle, wipe racks and embossed rack
supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to restore ease of movement.
Fine, hair-hke hnes may appear in the oven interior or oven door. This is a normal condition resulting from heating and cooling of the porcelain finish. These Hnes do not affect the performance of the oven.
About one hour after the clean cycle ends, the LOCK indicator will turn off and the oven door can be opened.
The oven door and door lock lever will be damaged if the oven door is forced to open when the LOCK indicator is still displayed.
To cancel clean cycle:
1. Push CANCEL pad.
2. If the LOCK indicator is displayed, allow oven to cool up to one hour. Once LOCK indicator turns off, the door can be unlocked and opened.

1. Remove oven racks and close the oven door.
2. Move the door lock lever to the right or locked position.
PAGES
USING YOUR OVEN

Oven Characteristics

Every oven has its own characteristics. You may find that the cooking times and temperatures you were accustomed to with your previous oven may need to be altered slightly with your new oven. Please expect some differences with the new appliance.

Oven Control for Lower Oven or Double Oven Models

Indicator Light
The OVEN indicator light turns on whenever the lower oven is turned on for a cooking operation. The light turns on and off as the oven elements cycle on and off

Oven Racks

Wall ovens are equipped with two lock-stop oven racks. One rack is a “straight” rack while the other is an “off-set” rack. The lower oven has only one oven rack.
When using two racks for baking, place the off-set
rack in the bottom rack position. It is recommended that the straight rack be used for
broiling. To remove: Be sure rack is cool. Pull rack out to
the “lock-stop” position. Tilt up and continue pulling until rack releases.
To replace: Place rack on rack supports, tilt up
and push toward rear of oven. Pull rack out to “lock-stop” position to be sure rack is correctly replaced.
The lower oven of the double wall oven has a
mechanical control to operate the oven. The knob is labeled LOWER OVEN TEMP. This knob is used to select the oven temperature. Always turn knob just to the desired temperature, never to a higher temperature and then back. This allows for more precise oven temperatures and is especially important if oven
is being set for a critical baking operation.
IMPORTANT (Self-Clean Oven Only):
DO NOT MOVE DOOR LOCK LEVER TO THE RIGHT DURING HROILING OR RAKING. The oven door may lock and will not unlock imtil the oven cools.
Fan
A fan automatically turns on whenever the oven
is set for a cooking or self-clean operation. The
fan will automatically turn off when the oven has
cooled.

Rack Positions

Never place pans directly on the oven bottom. Do not cover entire rack with aluminum fod or place foil directly under utensil. To catch spillovers, cut a piece of foil a little larger than the pan and place it on the second rack located below the utensil.
Rack 4 — (top of oven) used for broiling thin foods and for two rack baking.
Rack 3 — used for baking and for broiling thicker cuts of meat.
Rack 2 — used for one- or two-rack baking and for roasting some meats.
Rack 1 — (bottom of oven) for cooking larger
foods and for baking angel food cake or pie shells. Place food in oven on center of rack. Allow 1 or 2
inches between edge of utensil and oven sides or
adjacent utensils. If cooking on two racks, stagger foods on racks. Use rack positions 2 and 4 when cooking on two racks.
To operate the lower oven: Turn lower
OVEN TEMP knob to desired temperature.
After cooking, turn the lower OVEN TEMP
knob to OFF and remove the food from the
oven.
PAGE 9

Preheating

Preheating is necessary for proper baking results. It is not necessary for broiling or roasting. Allow the oven to heat until the desired oven temperature is reached (approximately 10-15 minutes).
Selecting a temperature higher than desired will not preheat the oven any faster. Preheating at a higher temperature may have a negative effect on baking results.

How to Roast

Roasting is the cooking of tender cuts of meat
with dry heat. No water is added nor is the
cooking utensil covered. Searing is unnecessary. If desired, season meat with salt and pepper.
Check weight of meat and place meat fat-side-up on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
Place oven rack in one of the two bottom rack positions before oven is turned on. Preheating is unnecessary for roasting meats.
Meats are roasted at 325°F generally (except tenderloin, 425°F and smaller poultry at 375°F to 400°F).
Cooking time is determined by the weight of the meat and the desired doneness. Use the chart given below as a guide in determining cooking times. For the most accurate results, use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer so the tip
is in the center of the thickest part of the meat
and is not touching bone or fat.

Roasting Chart

After cooking, remove meat from the oven and let stand 15 to 20 minutes for easier carving. Rare or medium rare meats should be removed from the oven when the internal temperature is 5 to
10° less than the final desired temperature since meat will continue to cook slightly while standing.
Frozen meat may be cooked in the same way as fresh meat if the meat is thawed first. It is also possible, however, to cook meat from the frozen state. Follow the same roasting instructions but increase cooking time approximately 10 to 25 minutes per pound. When using frozen packaged meat, follow package directions. Frozen poultry should always be thawed before cooking except when package directions recommend cooking from the frozen state such as for frozen turkey roUs. Do not refreeze meats that have not been cooked first.

How to Broil

Broiling is a method of cooking tender meats by direct heat. The cooking time is determined by the distance between the meat and the broil element, the desired degree of doneness and the thickness of the meat.
Broiling Tips:
Broiling requires the use of the broiler pan and insert. The broiler insert must be in place to allow fat and liquid to drain to the pan below to prevent spatters, smoke and flare-ups. Improper use may cause grease fires.
Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil as this prevents fat from draining into pan below. For easier clean up, the broiler pan can be hned with foil and spray the insert with a non stick vegetable spray.
Remove excess fat and slash remaining fat to help keep meat from curling. This also reduces smoking and spattering.
Place oven rack in the correct rack position when oven is cool. For darker browning, place meat closer to the broil element. Place meat further down if you wish meat to be well done or if
excessive smoking and flaring occurs.

Broiling Chart

See Care and Cleaning Chart on page 15 for in structions on cleaning the broder pan and insert.
To set oven to broil:
1. Press BROIL pad. 000° and BROIL indicator words will appear
in the display.
2. Press A pad to select HI for normal broiling or ▼ pad to select Lo for low temperature broiling.
3. For optimum results, remove broiler pan and preheat broil element 3 to 5 minutes.
4. Broil with the oven door opened to the broil stop position (opened about 6 inches). Turn meat once about hallway through cooking. Check for doneness by cutting a slit in the
meat near the center for desired color.
5. At the end of cooking, press CANCEL to cancel the broil operation. The current time of
day will reappear in the display.
Use HI BROIL for most broil operations. Select Lo BROIL when broiling longer cooking foods such as poultry. The lower temperature allows food to cook to the well done stage without excessive browning. Cooking time may increase
if Lo BROIL is selected.
Broil times may need to be increased if range is installed on a 208-volt circuit.

(See inside front cover for location of your model and serial numbers).

Explanation of Fault Codes

Your appliance is equipped with an electronic control featuring built-in, self-diagnostic software. This software continuously monitors the control to insure safe and proper operation. If the software should detect a questionable situation, a FAULT CODE (F plus a number) will appear in the display and continuous beeps may sound.
A fault code indicates that there may be a functional error. As a safety precaution, the control will automatically cancel the program.
PAGE 16
During Normal Oven Cooking
If a fault code appears in the display and continuous beeps sound, press the CANCEL pad. Then, reprogram the cooking operation.
If the fault code reappears in the display, call an authorized servicer. Do not use the oven until the control has been serviced. The cooktop can be used.
During a Self-Clean Cycle
If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive smoke and flaring may result in a fault code. If this occurs, press the CANCEL pad and allow the oven to cool for an hour. Then, reprogram the oven for the clean cycle.
If the fault code reappears in the display, call an authorized servicer. Do not use the oven until the control has been serviced. The cooktop can be used.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

Your new appliance has been factory tested for oven temperature accuracy. Even though your range has been tested, you may find that the cooking results with your new oven are different from your previous oven.
If you have carefully followed the recipe, reviewed the baking tips on page 11 and still feel cooking results do not meet your expectations, you can adjust the oven temperature. DO NOT ADJUST THE TEMPERATURE if only one or two items are not baking properly.
If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself To decide how much to
change the thermostat, set the oven temperature 25°F higher or lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of the “test”
should give you an idea of how much to adjust the thermostat.
To adjust the thermostat:
1. Press OVEN TEMP pad.
2. Press A or T pad until 550° is displayed.
3. Press and hold the OVEN TEMP pad for several seconds until 00° appears in the display.
• If 00° does not appear in the display, press the CANCEL pad and begin again.
• If the oven temperature was previously adjusted, the change will be displayed. For example, if the temperature was reduced by
15°, -15° will be displayed.
4. Press the A or ▼ pad to select the temperature change desired.
• The oven temperature can be increased up to 35° or reduced by as much as 35° (-35°) in 5° increments.
NOTE: If you delay in selecting a temperature, the program will automatically cancel and 00° will disappear. Regin again if the program cancels.
5. Press the CANCEL pad and the time of day will reappear in the display. The oven will now bake at the adjusted temperature.
It is not necessary to readjust the oven temperature if there is a power interruption. This adjustment will not affect broil or clean temperatures.
