Safety Instructions
SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
Important Safety Instructions
Please read all instructions before using this appliance.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Tie long hair so that it doesn't hang loose.
• 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 or the interior surfaces of the oven until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
• The trim on the top and sides of the oven door
may become hot enough to cause burns.
• Use care when opening the door. Open the door
slightly to let hot air or steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and
result in injury.
• Always place oven racks in desired location while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let pot holder contact the heating
elements.
• Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot eating
elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WITH
SELF CLEANING OVEN
• Confirm that the door locks and will not open
once START is touched and the Door Lock icon
appears. If door does not lock, touch OVEN OFF
and do not run Self-Clean. Phone 800/735-4328
for service (see Page 34 for obtaining service).
• Note: During a normal Self-Clean and a Delayed
Self-Clean cycle, the door locks within 25 to 30
seconds after start is touched.
• Do not clean the door gasket. It is essential for
a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage, move or remove the door gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
liner protective coatings of any kind in or around
any part of the oven.
• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, all oven racks, other utensils and
excess soft spillage.
• Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard sometimes during the cleaning cycle. If no fan is heard,
call for service. See Page 34.
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.
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.

Warming Drawer Safety Instructions
Warming Drawer Safety Instructions
Please read all instructions before using this appliance.
SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
WARNING: The warming drawer is for keeping
hot food hot. Never use it to cook food. Never use it
to warm or heat a room.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this
manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
• Do not store flammable materials in the drawer.
• Use care when opening the drawer. Open just a
crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
• Do not place food in unopened containers in the
drawer. Pressure could build up and cause container to burst.
• Do not touch the interior surface of the drawer
while it is in use. The interior of the drawer could
become hot enough to cause burns. Use hot pads
or oven mitts when using the warming drawer.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line the drawer. Foil
is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat
beneath it. This will upset the performance of the
drawer and it could damage the interior finish.

General Tips
PREHEATING THE OVEN
• Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.
• Preheat the oven when using the BAKE,
CONVECTION, ROAST, CONVECTION BAKE and
CONVECTION ROAST 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.
OPERATIONAL SUGGESTIONS
• 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 briefly 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.
SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
• 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.
• 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 35.
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
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
• 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 can liner 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.
SELF-CLEANING THE RACKS
• If the racks are left in the oven during Self-Clean,
the racks will lose the shiny finish and change to
a dull, bluish, metallic gray. See Oven Care and
Cleaning Recommendations on Page 31.
RACK POSITIONS
• Rack positions are numbered from the bottom
support guide (#1) to the top (#6). The correct
rack position for cooking a food item depends on
the recipe and the cooking mode.
• Refer to the cooking recomendations for best rack
position.
MULTIPLE RACK COOKING AND BAKING
• Now you can cook a complete meal using multiple racks without flavor exchange from different
foods.
• Check that cooking or baking temperatures are
the same when cooking different foods at the
same time.
• Two racks can be used at one time during BAKE
mode, such as when baking a batch of cookies.
• Three racks or more can be used with convection
mode.
CAUTION
Always insert racks with pan stops toward the
back of the oven and facing up. If inserted incorrectly, the rack could slide all the way out of the
oven causing injury and/or burns.

Baking Tips
• Preheat when using the Bake mode.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and
finish of the baking utensil. Dark metal pans or
nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
• Use a maximum of 2 racks when selecting the
bake mode. Stagger pans or baking sheets so
that one is not directly above another.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the
window to periodically check food for doneness
instead of opening the door.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with
at least 1
-1
/2" space between pans or dishes and
oven walls.
• Do not use any aluminum foil or a disposable
aluminum tray to line any part of the oven. Foil
is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be
trapped beneath it. This will alter the cooking
performance and can damage the finish of the
oven.
Baking Recommendations
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.*
Use BAKE for baking on one or two racks. Most items are baked on rack position 3 (center rack in oven).
Some foods are best when other rack positions are used. Refer to the chart below for foods that should be
baked using other rack positions.

Convection Mode Operation
• Preheat when using the convection mode.
• For a quick recipe conversion, reduce the oven
temperature 25° from the bake setting.
• Set Timer 1 or 2 as a reminder to check doneness
of the food at minimum time.
• Multiple-rack cooking and baking can be done in
this mode. For example, cookies can be baked
on all six racks.
• Use low-sided uncovered pans, such as cookie
sheets with 1 or 2 sides.
• Shiny aluminum pans are best, unless otherwise
specified.
• Dark finish metal pans and heatproof glass or
ceramic bakeware may require oven temperature
to be reduced or the time shortened.
• Foods cooking in less than 15 minutes requires
the same time as in bake mode.
• Cookie-baking time may be a few minutes longer
for multi-rack convection baking. That is because
the presence of additional baking sheets in the
oven has an effect on the heating and air
circulation. Place baking sheets directly under
each other on the oven racks to enable optimum
heat circulation.
• Foods taking 30 minutes or more to cook will have
a 10 to 15 percent time savings.
• Check doneness 5 to 10 minutes sooner than the
minimum time for foods taking 30 minutes or more
to cook.
• Items such as angel food cake, popovers and
soufflés will have higher volume when baked in
this mode.

Convection Roast Mode and Probe Operation
Use the oven meat Probe to take the guesswork out of roasting meats. The meat Probe allows you to
prepare perfectly roasted meats and poultry by roasting to a specific internal temperature. It is easy to roast
meats to an exact temperature for Rare, Medium Rare, Medium, Medium Well or Well Done. Refer to the
Convection Roast Recommendations for “end” temperatures for different meats and poultry.
• For best results and beautiful roasting, preheating is recommended for Convection Roast.
• Results will yield a drier, crisper exterior that
seals in the interior juices with few pan drippings.
• Use Convection Roast when roasting tender cuts
of meat or poultry of any size.

kitchen string.
• The broil pan with the grid can be used in this
mode.
• Double-check the internal temperature of meat
or poultry by inserting probe into another position.
• After removing the meat item from the oven,
cover loosely with foil for 10 to 15 minutes before
carving.
• While covered, small roast temperatures may
increase 5ºF and large roast temperatures
increase 10ºF.
• Roasting large cuts of meat and poultry generally
takes 10 to 20 percent less cooking time than
roast or bake mode. Check doneness early.

Care and Cleaning
SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
Self-Cleaning the Oven
Your new oven features pyrolytic Self-Cleaning. When
set into the Clean mode, the oven reaches a high
temperature that burns off the food soil.
• As a safety feature, the oven door locks during
Self-Clean to protect you from very high temperatures. Do not try to open the oven during SelfClean mode.
• Only one oven can be set to self-clean at a time.
The second oven cannot be used while one is
self-cleaning.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional
flame-up during the Clean cycle, depending on
the content and amount of soil remaining in the
oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven and
allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe
up the excessive food soil.
• The oven light will not turn on when the oven is
set for a clean cycle.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners as they
may damage finish or parts.
NOTE: Due to the high temperatures used for
self-cleaning, fine lines or surface roughness
may develop in oven cavity. This is a common
condition and does not affect either the cooking
or the cleaning performance of the oven.
Before You Self-Clean
1. Hand clean the oven door edge, window, oven
front frame and oven cavity edges (shaded
areas below). They do not get hot enough during
the cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use a
soapy sponge or plastic scrubber or an S.O.S.
pad.
DO NOT RUB THE GASKET.
2 . Wipe up large overspills and grease with paper
towels.
3. Remove broiler pan, all utensils and bakeware.
4. Remove oven racks. If the oven racks are
left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, they
will permanently lose their shiny finish and change
to a dull dark finish. See Oven Cleaning for proper
care, Page 31.
NOTE: The Extendable Rack (C oven models) must be removed before a self-clean.
The rack may not be usable if it is left in
during self-clean.
5. Be sure the light is turned off on the control
panel and the bulb and glass cover are in place,
see Page 33.
6. Heat and odors are normal during the Self-Clean
cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated.
After Self-Clean
• At the end of the Clean cycle, gray ash remains
inside the oven. The amount of ash depends on
how heavily soiled the oven was before it was
cleaned. It is easily removed, when the oven is
cold, using a damp sponge or cloth. If the racks do
not slide easily after being self-cleaned, lightly rub
rack side rails with vegetable oil. Wipe off excess.
