Burn Prevention 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
an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or
let clothing, potholders, 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. Among these surfaces are
oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door
slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the
opening and make sure there are no children or pets near th e unit. After the r elease

Important Safety Instructions
m
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy,
bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of
burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities
of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be
moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
Always use 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.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not
hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging g arments, such as ties,
scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility
of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe operation
of the appliance by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance,
especially a door, warming drawer or storage drawer. This can damage the
appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult.
Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or
not the appliance is in use.
CAUTION:
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above
an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach
items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious
fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from
steam.

Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substan ce s.
The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can
generate small amounts of Carbon Monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in self-clean
ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning
cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon
Monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these
substances can be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
3. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does
not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems . Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or
other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are
released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating
margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

Cooling Fan The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is
running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may
also run after the oven is off.
Oven Vent The oven vent is located at the bottom of the unit. Warm air may be released from
the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from
English 6
the vent, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when
the oven is in use. Do not block the vent, since it is important for air circulation.
Convection Fan The convection fan operates during all convection modes. When the oven is
operating in a convection mode, the fan turns off automatically when the door is
opened. The convection fan may also run during self-clean.
Oven Bottom The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is
protected from damage and spills.
Note: Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.
WARNING:
m
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the
appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

oven and not tilt.
Inserting Flat Rack into Oven:
To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning
oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack
must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact
hot heating elements.
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure flat rack
is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or
upside down.
1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides.
2. Insert rack (see picture).
3. Tilt rack up to allow stop into rack
guide.
4. Bring rack to a horizontal position and
push the rest of the way in. Rack

Operation
About the Appliance
Your new oven combines popular functions, premium cooking results and simple
operation.
The "cookWiz" function makes it possible to select the desired food type using the
display menu. The oven then starts automatically, using the correct cooking mode
and temperature.
This oven can also provide assistance after cooking: Thanks to "Self-Clean" mode,
hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The
oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes
from the oven when Self-Clean is done.
The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity.
The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.
These advantages are especially noticeable in the "Convection" cooking modes. In
Convection modes, an extra fan distributes the hot air evenly throughout the oven.
Clear labeling of the touch keys make operating the oven very easy. In addition,
messages on the display provide assistance when adjusting settings. This manual
includes all instructions for operating the oven.
