dehydrate flammable materials. This is a fire hazard.

Persons who lack physical, sensory

or mental abilities, or experience with the appliance should not use it without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.

Children

Children should not be left

unattended in an area where the appliance is in use. Never allow children to hang or lean on any part of the appliance.

Children should not use the unit

without supervision unless its operation has been sufficiently explained so they can run it safely. Children must be able to recognize potential hazards or improper operation.

Do not allow children to touch or

play in, on or near the oven when it is in operation. The oven gets hot at the oven door glass, the vapor vent, the handle and the operating controls. Danger of burns.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Installation

Before installation, make sure that

the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

Be certain your appliance is

properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician.

The oven is not to be operated until

it has been properly installed within cabinetry.

Oven use

WARNING: Ovens can produce

high temperatures that can cause burns.

Prevent children from touching the

appliance while in use.

Use heat-resistant potholders when

placing items in the oven, turning them, or removing them from the oven. The upper heating element and oven racks can become very hot and cause burns.

To prevent burns, always place

oven racks at their desired height while the oven is cool.

Open the door carefully to allow hot

air or steam to escape before placing or removing food.

To prevent burns, allow the heating

element to cool before cleaning by hand.

Installation, maintenance and repair

work should be performed by an authorized service technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.

Before installation or service,

disconnect the power supply to the work area by removing the fuse, "tripping" the circuit breaker, or shutting off the power main.

The door gasket is essential for a

good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket. The door gasket should only be cleaned with a solution of warm water and soap.

Only clean parts listed in this

manual.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Caution: Heating elements may be

hot even though they are not glowing. During and after use, do not let clothing or other flammable materials come in contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot.

Do not block any vent

openings.

Aluminum foil should not be used to

line the oven floor. To avoid damage, do not place pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor.

Do not let metal objects (aluminum

foil, pans) come in contact with the heating element.

Do not slide pots or pans on the

oven floor. This could scratch and damage the surface.

Do not lean, sit, or place heavy

items on the open oven door.

Do not heat unopened containers of

food in the oven, pressure may build up and cause them to explode.

Never add water to food on a hot

tray or pan or directly onto food in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalds.

This oven must only be used for

cooking. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc. Fumes or vapors given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials could be hazardous.

Never store flammable liquids and

materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces.

When baking frozen pizzas or pies,

place them on the rack lined with parchment paper. Do not use the baking tray or the roasting pan for frozen foods with a large surface area. The tray or pan could become warped and difficult to remove from the oven when hot. Frozen food like french fries, fish sticks, chicken fingers etc. can be baked on the baking tray.

Always check that food is sufficiently

heated. The time required varies depending on a number of factors, such as initial temperature, quantity, type and consistency of the food, and changes in the recipe. Germs present in the food are killed off only at a sufficiently high temperature (> 158° F / 70 °C) and after a sufficiently long time (> 10 Min.). Select a longer cook time if you are unsure if food is thoroughly heated. To ensure temperature is distributed evenly, stir and rotate food occasionally before serving.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General notes

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean

the oven. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Children should not be left alone or

unattended in an area where an oven is in use. Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be injured.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when cooking with oils or fats, they are a fire hazard if overheated.

Do not use water on grease fires!

Smother the fire with a properly rated dry chemical or foam fire extinguisher.

Be aware of loose fitting or hanging

garments while operating the cooktop, they present a fire hazard.

It is recommended to cover all

cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the interior of the oven.

Be careful when using alcoholic

beverages like rum, whiskey, wine etc. for baking or roasting. The alcohol evaporates at high temperatures but may in rare circumstances combust on the hot heating elements.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY

Do not use the oven to heat the

room.

Make certain that the power cords of

small appliances do not come in contact with or get caught in the oven door.

Use only dry, heat resistant

potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oils. Do not substitute towels or other bulky items for potholders.

The roasting pan does not need to be greased or covered with parchment paper. The PerfectClean enamel finish prevents spillovers from baking onto and into the surface. Baked food can be easily removed.

Use baking parchment only for dough with a high egg white content, i.e. for biscuit, meringue or macaroons.

Do not use "Rapid Heat" to pre-heat the oven when baking pizzas or biscuits and small cakes. They will brown too quickly.

Surround

Default temperature. . . 375 °F (190 °C)

Roasting tips

The larger the cut of meat to be

–

roasted, the lower the temperature that should be used. The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the outside will become crisp.

– Use the roast probe for accurate

cooking temperatures and best results.

Roasting in a covered pot

When roasting in a covered pot, increase the recipe temperature by 70 °F (20 °C).

Roasting

Season the meat and place it in the pot. Add some butter, margarine or a little oil and about ½ cup of water when roasting a large piece of meat or roasting poultry with a high fat content.

Roasting on the rack

Use the rack with the roasting pan inserted below. Add a little oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on top to help retain moisture. Place a little water in the roasting pan below the meat to catch drippings.

Roasting poultry

For crispy skin, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking with salt water.

Broiling tips

To ensure even cooking, it is best to

–

broil foods of a similar thickness at the same time. Most items should be turned halfway through broiling.

– To determine how far through a thick

piece of meat has been cooked, press down on its surface with a spoon.

If the surface presses down easily and with little resistance to the spoon, it is "rare".

If there is some resistance, it is "medium".

If there is great resistance, it is "well done".

Broil

Default temperature . . . 500 °F (260 °C)

Only the inner part of the upper heating element is used for a smaller area of intense heat from above. This function is excellent for broiling or searing small quantities.

Use this function for:

chops, ribs,

–

small quantities of meat,

–

browning small dishes.

–

The recommended position is the 3 runner from the bottom.

Broiling

Maxi Broil

Default temperature . . . 500 °F (260 °C)

The entire upper heating element is used for intense heating from above. This function gives excellent browning and searing results.

Use this function for:

chops, ribs,

–

large quantities of meat,

–

browning large dishes.

–

The recommended position is the 3 runner from the bottom.

Convection Broil

Default temperature . . . 400 °F (200 °C)

Hot air from the upper heating element is distributed over the food by the fan. This enables a lower temperature than conventional broiling to be used.

Use this function for:

thick pieces of meat,

–

London broil.

–

The recommended position is the 1 runner from the bottom.

Broiling

Dehydrate

You can use "Convection Bake" with a temperature of 175 °F (80 °C) for dehydrating fruits, vegetables and herbs.

A consistent low temperature and the fan maintain the ideal conditions for the long dehydration process.

For best results, blot food with a paper towel before dehydrating.

Foods to be dehydrated should be placed directly on the oven racks or on a drying screen (not supplied with oven).

You can use "Convection Bake" with a temperature of 125 °F (50 °C)

The warm environment will allow you to effectively proof dough. The low temperature is perfect for yeast to rise.

Place the dough in a large bowl on the oven rack positioned at the lowest runner level. Keep the oven door closed during this process.

Proof

Defrost

You can use this function to defrost food at room temperature.

With selecting this function, the time of day appears in the display.

Defrosting times depend on the type and weight of the food, and at what temperature it was deep-frozen.

Defrosting tips

Remove the frozen food from the

–

packaging and place it in the roasting pan or into an appropriate dish.

– Meat and poultry should be fully

thawed before cooking. Do not use the liquids from defrosting.

– Fish does not need to be fully

defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is soft enough to absorb herbs and seasoning.

– Cook all food immediately after

defrosting.

Front of appliance

It is best to clean spills from the front of the appliance immediately. Spills that remain longer may cause the surface to become discolored or changed.

Clean the exterior with a solution of warm water and liquid soap applied with a soft sponge. Dry with a soft cloth.

All surfaces are vulnerable to scratching. Scratches can lead to shattering of the glass surface. All surfaces can become discolored or changed if they come into contact with unsuitable cleaning agents.

Cleaning

Glass cleaners may be used to clean the exterior. However do not allow them to sit or "puddle", this can cause damage to the surface.

Remove the cleaner promptly.

To better maintain your appliance avoid the following:

cleaners containing soda, ammonia,

–

thinners, or chlorides

cleaners containing descaling

–

agents or lime removers,

– abrasive cleaners,

– stainless steel cleaners,

– dishwasher soap (powder),

– caustic (oven) cleaners,

– scouring pads, steel wool, hard

brushes,

– metal scrapers.

Cleaning

PerfectClean

The revolutionary PerfectClean enamel is a smooth, nonstick surface that cleans easily with a sponge.

The following have been treated with "PerfectClean":

oven walls,

–

roasting pan,

–

wire rack,

–

runners.

–

Do not clean items with PerfectClean

in a dishwasher. Dishwasher detergents may damage the enamel.

^ Clean after each use with a sponge

and a solution of hot water and liquid dish soap.

^ Do not use abrasive cleaners,

ceramic cleaners, metal scourers, or oven cleaners on PerfectClean surfaces.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with water. The water should run off the surface easily, any residue will hinder this effect.

Stubborn baked on grease may need to be soaked first to loosen deposits.

Clean spills on PerfectClean surfaces as soon as possible to prevent stains.

Spilled fruit juices may permanently discolor surfaces. This discoloration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the enamel.

Cleaning the oven cavity by hand

Danger of burns! Allow the oven

to cool before cleaning.

To make cleaning easier

remove the oven door,

–

remove the runners,

–

remove the back panel,

–

lower the upper heating element.

–
