Safety Precautions

General Appliance, Oven and Microwave Oven

Built-in DM Oven Care and Use Manual

Safety Precautions

GENERAL OVEN SAFETY

• Do not touch hot elements or hot interior surfaces of the oven.

• The 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 or other flammable materials contact the heating elements until they have had sufficient time to cool.

• The trim on top and on the sides of the oven door may become hot enough to cause burns.

• Use care when opening the oven door. Open slightly at first to let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

• Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

• Always place oven racks at desired level while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot elements.

• Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.

• In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.

• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders in contact with hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.

• Do not use a towel or other types of bulky cloth in place of potholders. They may ignite if they touch a hot element.

WARNING

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to substances which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm.

The elimination of soil during self-cleaning generates some by-products which are on this list of substances.

SELF-CLEANING MODE SAFETY

• Confirm that the door locks and will not open before starting self-clean mode. If door does not lock, do not run self-clean; phone 800 / 735-4328 for service (see Page 54, for obtaining service.)

• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.

• Keep surfaces of door and oven free of soil, especially where they meet. Refer to cleaning instructions on Page 51.

• Do not clean the door gasket. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, loosen or remove the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal.

• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven liner protective coating of any kind in or around any part of the oven.

• Before setting the self-clean mode, remove the broiler pan, oven racks, other utensils and excess, soft spillage.

MICROWAVE MODE SAFETY

• Do not tamper with, adjust or repair the door, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Repairs must be done by a qualified service technician.

• Do not operate the microwave mode when the oven is empty. If food or water is not present to absorb the energy, the oven could be damaged with a risk of fire.

• Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. Newspapers and paper bags are not suitable for cooking; a fire may result.

• Do not use recycled paper products unless they are labeled safe for microwave use. These products may contain impurities that may cause sparks and result in a fire.

• Always use potholders to remove food from oven when usnig the microwave mode. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the cooking container.

To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this oven according to the instructions in this manual and provide good ventilation to the room during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.

REGARDING PET BIRDS

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 mode, fumes that may be harmful to birds are released. Other kitchen fumes, such as from overheating margarines and cooking oils, may also be harmful.

Continued on next page

Built-in DM Oven Care and Use ManualSafety Precautions

Microwave Mode

Safety Precautions

IMPORTANT: Do not overcook food; fire could result. Proper cooking depends on selecting the correct power level and cooking time for the

amount of food in the oven. Smaller portions of food that are cooked too long may catch fire. Always have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you can hear the magnetron cycling on and off. Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Do not block oven vents. This oven is rated for 600 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. When preparing foods, check food 1-2 minutes before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

FOOD ITEM OR PROCESS

Home Canning

Drying

Foods with Nonporous

Skins or Shells

Popcorn

• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, whole squash, hot dogs and sausages so that steam can escape.

• Puncture whole egg yolks before cooking to prevent bursting.

• Use popcorn packaged for microwave ovens.

• Refer to popcorn package for popping time. Set the time early to check popping.

• Place popcorn package on a microwavesafe dish.

DON’T

• Heat, cook or can in closed glass jars or air tight containers.

• Home can in the microwave as harmful bacteria may not be destroyed.

• Dry meats, herbs, fruits, vegetables, gourds, wood items or wet papers.

• Dry nuts or seeds in the shell.

• Cook eggs in the shell.

• Reheat whole eggs.

• Leave oven unattended when popping popcorn.

• Use brown paper bags or glass bowls to pop corn in.

• Place popcorn package on oven rack or oven bottom.

Baby Food/Baby Formula

General

• Place baby food in a small dish and heat gently, stir often, and check temperature before serving.

• Place nipples/cap on bottles after heating and shake thoroughly. Always “wrist test” before feeding.

• When using oven cooking bags, use plastic ties or cotton string to close bag.

• Stir liquids before and after heating to help prevent “eruption.”

• Baked items with fillings should be cut open to allow steam to escape and avoid burns.

• Pizza sauce can become extremely hot. Check temperatures before eating.

• Heat baby food in the original jars.

• Heat bottles with nipples on.

• Heat bottles with disposable liners.

• Use wire twist-tie to close an oven cooking bag.

Oven Features

The following illustrations give an overview of what happens in the oven with each mode. The arrows represent the location of the heat source during specific modes. The lower element is concealed under the oven floor.

Built-in DM Oven Care and Use Manual

Heating Modes Available in Each Oven

BAKE, PROOF or WARM

Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements are used to heat the air and cycle to maintain the temperature. Proofing, while similar to baking, holds an optimum low temperature for yeast to rise. Warm mode uses bottom heat to keep foods at optimum warm temperature.

ROAST

Roast has more top heat than bake. This additional top heat is for conventional open roasting when drippings are desired or for covered-dish roasting.

CONVECTION or DEHYDRATE

Convection cooking uses heat from a third element concealed behind the back wall of the oven. It also uses a fan to speed up the circulation of heated air throughout the oven. Dehydrate is similar to convection cooking and holds an optimum low temperature while circulating the heated air to remove moisture slowly for food preservation.

CONVECTION BAKE

Convection Bake has heat from the upper and lower element with circulation assisted by the convection fan. This mode is designed for breads and pastries.

CONVECTION ROAST

Convection roasting combines the heat from the lower concealed element with additional heat from the convection element and fan. The result is a crispier exterior that seals in the interior juices. It is perfect for roasting tender meats in an uncovered, low-sided pan.

CONVECTION BROIL

Convection broiling combines the intense heat from the upper element with air circulation assisted by the convection fan. This air circulation crisps the exterior surface and retains inner moisture in meats more than 1-1/2" thick.

BROIL

Broiling uses intense heat radiated from the upper element to give excellent top browning or searing.

Oven Features

Built-in DM Oven Care and Use Manual

Microwave Modes available only in Single or Upper Ovens

The following illustrations give an overview of the heating activity with each mode setting. The arrows represent the heat source for specific cooking modes.

Cooksmart™ – This mode combines pre-programmed microwave energy and convection temperatures. Cooksmart™ settings cook in approximately one-half the standard cooking time. See Pages 15 – 22 for operation.

MICROWAVE – The microwaves enter through the plate in the top of the oven. Select from ten power levels when microwaving. See Pages 23 – 33 for operation.

DEFROST – Power level is programmed in control. Microwave energy only. See pages 32 and 33 for operation.

MICROBROIL – This mode combines microwave and broil settings. The intense heat from the upper element gives excellent topbrowning and microwaves shorten the total cooking time. Microbroil is best for tender meat, poultry and fish that is more than 1 inches thick. See Pages 28 – 29 for operation.

General Tips for Upper and Lower Oven

PREHEATING THE OVEN

• Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.

• Preheat the oven when using the BAKE, CONVECTION, ROAST and CONVECTION BAKE modes.

• Preheat is not used for BROIL and CONVECTION BROIL modes.

• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food item.

• Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

• During preheat, the selected cooking temperature is displayed and alternates with a display of the actual oven temperature.

• The oven beeps once when it is preheated and the selected cooking temperature is displayed.

• Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

• Use FAST PREHEAT to speed up preheating (See page 34).

SUGGESTIONS FOR OPERATION

• Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.

• Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven door window rather than opening the door frequently.

• Use TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 to keep track of cooking times.

• Open the door as little as possible to avoid temperature reduction.

BAKING PANS AND DISH INFORMATION

• Glass baking dishes absorb heat; therefore, reduce oven temperature 25°F when baking in glass.

• Use pans that give the desired browning. For tender, light golden brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal utensils.

• Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturer recommendations.

• Insulated cookie sheets or baking pans may increase the length of cooking time.

• Do not set roasting pans or other baking pans on the open oven door.

Built-in DM Oven Care and Use Manual

• Do not keep the empty broiler pan in the oven during cooking as this could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside of the oven.

• Tips for “Solving Baking Problems” are found on Page 55.

HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING

• When cooking at high altitude with BAKE, CONVECTION, CONVECTION BAKE, ROAST or CONVECTION ROAST modes, recipes and cooking times will vary.

• For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.

CONDENSATION / TEMPERATURE SENSOR

• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

• Your new Thermador® oven has an electronic temperature sensor that accurately maintains the temperature selected. Your previous oven may have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted gradually over time to a higher temperature. If you have adjusted your favorite recipe for use with your previous oven, you may have to adjust the time or temperature in your new oven.

Oven Racks

GENERAL TIPS

• Placing racks in oven: To insert racks into the oven, hold the

rack with the back rail up and toward the back. Place the safety hooks under the front of the rail guides. Push the rack into the oven, lifting the rack stops over the front of the rail guides. Slide the rack into position.

• Removing racks from oven: To remove racks or reposition

racks in the oven, pull the rack toward the front of the oven. Lift up the front of the rack over the safety stops and pull from the oven.

• Place oven racks in desired positions before turning the oven on.

• Oven rack supports should not be removed from the oven.

• CAUTION! Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line the oven. It can cause damage to the oven if heat is trapped under the foil.

• When placing food on a rack, pull the rack out to the stop position. The racks are designed to lock and not tilt when pulled forward.
