9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.

DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.

Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

- The fire department is being called.

- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

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 (or drawer) 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 the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.

Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.

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.

CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

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 garments, 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 practices 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

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking Water 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 substances. The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate some by-products which are on the list. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the instructions contained in this booklet and provide good ventilation.

When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run SelfClean. Contact service.

Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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

NOTICE: 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.

Operation

About the Appliance

Your new oven combines popular functions, premium cooking results and simple operation.

The "Easy Cook" function makes it possible to select the desired food type using the display menu. The oven then starts automatically, using the correct cooking mode, temperature and time.

While cooking, if a dish turns out particularly well, the settings for this dish can be stored in "Favorites" and can be retrieved at any time.

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.

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.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

General Tips

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1’’ to 1 1/2’’ of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Aluminum Foil

9 WARNING

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

▯ Place oven racks in desired position before heating

▯ Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection

▯ Preheat is not used for Speed Convection, Roast,

▯ Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe

▯ Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat

ingredients or food items.

time.

quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

Preheat Reminders

Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.

▯ Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no

cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.

▯ Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry,

casseroles and Speed Convection.

▯ Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply

to your house is less than 240 volts.

▯ Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer

preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.

When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

For Best Results

▯ Use the cooking recommendation charts as a guide.

See charts at the end of the book.

▯ Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid

temperature reduction.

▯ Use the interior oven light to view the food through the

oven window rather than opening the door frequently.

▯ Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.

Baking Pans and Dishes

▯ Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some cookware

manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of dish. Follow manufacturers’ recommendations.

▯ Use pans that provide the desired browning. For

tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.

▯ 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 manufacturers’ recommendations.

▯ Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the

length of cooking time.

▯ Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the

open oven door.

▯ Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during

cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.

High Altitude Baking

When cooking at high altitudes, 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

It is normal for 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.

Bake %

Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.

The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.

Tips

▯ Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it. ▯ Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of

the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.

▯ For best results, bake food on a single rack with at

least 1-1 walls.

▯ Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window

to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.

▯ If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2

racks. For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5, for cookies use rack positions 1 and 4. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below). See “Pan Placement“ under “General Tips“ for more information. You may also consider using a convection mode.

Pan stagger in Bake mode for 27” appliances.

^” space between pans or dishes and oven

Pan stagger in Bake mode for 30” appliances.

Convection Bake (Some Models) 2

Convection Bake is similar to Bake. Heat comes from the upper and lower heating elements. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the appliance by the convection fan.

The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items. The benefits of Convection Bake include:

▯ Slight decrease in cook time. ▯ Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).

Tips

▯ Reduce recipe temperature by 25 °F. Refer to the

cooking chart at end of this manual.

▯ Place food in shallow, uncovered pans, such as

cookie sheets without sides.

▯ If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least

^“ of air space around the pan.

1-1

▯ For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5. Stagger pans

so that one is not directly above the other (see following graphic).

Pan stagger in Convection Bake mode for 27” appliances.

True Convection :

True Convection cooks with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

True Convection is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly. The benefits of True Convection include:

▯ Even browning. ▯ Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one

time.

Tips

▯ Reduce recipe temperature by 25 °F. Refer to chart at

end of the manual.

▯ Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as

cookie sheets without sides.

▯ If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least

1“ to 1

^“ of air space around the pan.

Roast %

Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the oven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat from the upper element than the lower element. This results in more browning of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.

Roast is best suited for large cuts of meat and poultry.

Tips

▯ Use a high-sided broil pan, or cover dish with a lid or

foil.

▯ Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or

stock for flavor and moisture.

▯ Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode. ▯ When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings

behind back and loosely tie legs wih kitchen string.

Convection Roast 2

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.

The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.

The benefits of Convection Roast mode include:

▯ As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection

modes.

▯ Rich, golden browning.

Tips

▯ Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe. ▯ Check doneness early, since roasting time may

decrease.

▯ Do not cover meat or use cooking bags. ▯ Use the broil pan and grid provided with the oven for

roasting. A shallow, uncovered pan can also be used.

▯ Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal

temperature of the meat.

▯ If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet

done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent over-browning.

▯ Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after

removing it from the oven.

▯ See charts for recommended rack positions.

Convection Broil 1

Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan.

Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods. Always use Convection Broil withe the door closed.

In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster.

To use the broil pan and grid: For normal Convection Broil: Food should be placed in

the center of the broil pan and grid.

Tips

▯ Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more

than 5 minutes.

▯ Steaks and Chops should be at least 1^“ thick. ▯ Use the broil pan and grid included with your oven. ▯ Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to

drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.

▯ Turn meats once during the recommended cook time

(see charts at the end of the book).

▯ Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate

the high temperature.

Broil #

Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element. The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender

cuts of meat (1“ or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed.

To use the broil pan and grid: For normal Broil: food should be placed in the center of

the broil pan and grid. The benefits of broiling include:

▯ Fast and efficient cooking. ▯ Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Tips

▯ Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more

than 5 minutes.

▯ Steaks and chops should be at least _“ thick. ▯ Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent

sticking.

▯ Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven. ▯ Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to

drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.

▯ Turn meats once during the rcommended cook time

(see charts at the end of the book).

▯ When top browning casseroles, use only metal or

glass ceramic dishes such as Corningware®.

▯ Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate

the high temperature.

Pizza 2

In the Pizza mode, heat from the lower and upper elements is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.

Tips

▯ For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack. ▯ For a softer crust, use a pizza pan. ▯ When proofing dough, coat dough with olive oil and

cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.

▯ Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking. ▯ If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally

with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.

▯ If parbaking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough

with a fork before baking.

▯ If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for

a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.

▯ Preheat baking stone while the oven is preheating. ▯ Rack positions to use:

Homemade Pizza: rack 2 Frozen: follow manufacturer’s directions Baking Stone: rack2

▯ The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza

mode.
