OVEN SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the oven, follow basic precautions, including the following:

■ Proper Installation – Be sure the oven is properly installed

and grounded by a qualified technician.

■ Never Use the Oven for Warming or Heating the Room.

Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left

■

alone or unattended in area where oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven.

■ Wear Proper Apparel – Loose-fitting or hanging garments

should never be worn while using the oven.

■ User Servicing – Do not repair or replace any part of the

oven unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

stored in an oven.

■ Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame

or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

■ Use Only 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.

■ Use Care When Opening Door – Let hot air or steam

escape before removing or replacing food.

■ Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of

pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

■ Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed.

■ Placement of Oven Racks – Always place oven racks in

desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

■ 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 or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot enough to cause burns – among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings,

oven doors, and windows of

oven doors.

For self-cleaning ovens:

■ Do Not Clean Gasket – The gasket is essential for a good

seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

■ Do Not Use Oven Cleaners – No commercial oven cleaner

or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

■ Clean Only Parts Listed in Manual.

■ Before Self-Cleaning the Oven – Remove broiler pan and

other utensils.

Temperature Calibration

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure the oven

temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature but may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door will affect cycling of the elements and impact the temperature.

The oven provides accurate temperatures and has been thoroughly tested at the factory. However, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, causing baking or browning differences. If necessary, the temperature calibration can be adjusted in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.

On double ovens, the upper oven and the lower oven can each be calibrated independently.

A minus sign (-) means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount.

Adjust the oven temp up to +/-30°F (+/-18°C). It is recommended to make changes in 5°F (3°C) increments until desired results are achieved.

To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:

1. Press the Tools keypad.

2. Select MORE MODES.

3. Select TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION.

4. Scroll from left to right to increase or decrease the

temperature.

NOTE: Each oven calibration can be independently set.

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom ﬁnish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1/2" (13 mm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain

ﬁnish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Racks

■ Position racks before turning on the oven.

■ Do not position racks with bakeware on them.

■ Make sure racks are level.

■ Place food so it will not rise into the broil element. Allow at

least 1/2" (13 mm) between pans and the broil element.

To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift it out. Use the following illustrations and charts as a guide for positioning racks.

3. Slowly push the rack and the sliding shelf to the back of the

oven until the back edge of the rack pulls over the end of the rack guide.

To avoid damage to the sliding shelves, do not place more than 25 lbs (11.4 kg) on the rack.

Do not clean the roll-out extension rack in a dishwasher. It may remove the rack’s lubricant and affect its ability to slide.

See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

Oven Vent(s)

A. Microwave B. Oven Vent C. Lower Oven

The oven vent(s) should not be blocked or covered since they allow the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the bottom vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air from the cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning, and cooling results.

Preheating and Oven Temperature

Preheating

When beginning a Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven, will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds.

Rapid Preheat

Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only one standard ﬂat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle.

IMPORTANT: Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking.

Oven Temperature

While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.

NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection bake mode to improve oven performance.

Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.

Baking and Roasting

IMPORTANT: The convection fan and convection element

may operate during the Bake function to enhance performance and heat distribution.

The oven will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all oven racks inside the oven cavity. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the temperature inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. Factors that impact preheat times include room temperature, oven temperature, and the number of racks. Unused oven racks can be removed prior to preheating your oven to help reduce preheat time. The actual oven temperature will go above the set temperature to offset the heat lost when the oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that the oven will begin at the proper temperature when you place food in the oven. Insert food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until the tone sounds.

During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

Depending on the model, if the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the heating elements (bake and broil) will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

Frozen Bake

Frozen BakeTM Technology automatically adjusts the manufacturer’s bake time by combining preheating and baking to deliver great packaged frozen food results without the wait. There are multiple preprogrammed food options. The Frozen BakeTM cycle have been customized to work only with these foods. When using Frozen BakeTM Technology, it is important that you follow all manufacturer’s instructions including venting, covering, stirring or placing on a baking sheet to ensure a good result. When cooking frozen meals, only cook items that provide instructions for cooking in a conventional oven. Place your dish in the center of the rack and select one of the rack positions recommended for Frozen BakeTM in the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section and bake only one package or pan at a time. Use the temperature and maximum bake time from the package.

A tone will alert you to check the food for doneness before the cook time is complete and again at the end of the cook time. The display will prompt you to add additional cook time if needed.

Temperature Probe

The temperature probe accurately measures the internal temperature of meat, poultry, and casseroles with liquid and should be used in determining the doneness of meat and poultry. The temperature probe should only be used with Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast.

Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven when removing food.

To Use:

Before using, insert the probe into the food item. For meats, the probe tip should be located in the center of the thickest part of the meat and not into the fat or touching a bone. Place food in the oven and connect the temperature probe to the jack. Keep the probe as far away from the heat source as possible. Close the oven door.

NOTE: The temperature probe must be inserted into the food item before the mode is selected.

■ Use the Assisted Cooking feature for guidance and step by

step instructions on inserting the probe and selecting target food internal temperatures.

■ Plug the probe into the oven’s port or pick the Probe icon in

the Tools Menu. Both will show a popup that allows the user to pick the cooking mode and all of the options. Place food in the oven and connect the temperature probe to the jack. Keep the probe as far away from the heat source as possible. Close the oven door.

Broiling

When broiling, no preheating is necessary unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the oven door to ensure proper broiling temperature.

NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the ﬁrst few times the oven is used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, ﬁsh and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Place the food in the upper or lower oven. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.

On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain the proper temperature.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed

to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may

be ordered. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more information.

Convection Cooking

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture, and yielding crustier breads.

During convection cooking, the bake, broil, and convection (true convection only) elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is closed.

NOTE: The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.

With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower temperature for a shorter length of time. These adjustments can be made using the following chart.

Setting Guidelines

Convect Bake

Convect Roast

Convect Broil

Reduce the standard baking temperature 25°F (15°C).

Use standard recipe temperature. Cooking time may be reduced by 15% to 30% with Convect Roast so the food should be checked for doneness early.

Use standard recipe temperature. Cooking time may be reduced so the food should be checked for doneness early.

Convert Time/Temp

Convection temperatures and times differ from those of standard cooking. The Convert Time/Temp convection feature is a function that converts a standard thermal bake or roast cook time and temperature into an ideal cook time and temperature for convection cooking. The displayed time and temperature will be the converted for convection values.

Position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section before starting convection cooking.

OVEN CARE

Self-Cleaning Cycle

WARNING

Burn Hazard

Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.

Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.

Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.

Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See the “Oven Vents” section.

Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven:

■ Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware, and,

on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.

■ Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide.

See the “General Cleaning” section for more information.

■ Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt,

damaging the oven.

■ Hand clean inside door edge and the 1

around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during high-temp self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.

■ Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage.

At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting, or faint white spots can result. This is normal and will not affect cooking performance.

How the Cycle Works

IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the

oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks, and popping sounds.

The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.

Suggested clean times are 3 hours for light soil, 4 hours for medium soil, and 5 hours for heavy soil.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.

The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

/2" (3.8 cm) area

NOTE: The oven has a two-speed cooling fan motor. During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the fan(s) will operate at its highest speed to increase airﬂow to better exhaust the hotter air through the oven vent(s). An increase in noise may be noticeable during and after the Self-Cleaning cycle until the oven cools.

Before Self-Cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. When the oven is locked, the doors of the oven cannot be opened. To avoid damage to the doors, do not force the doors open when the oven is locked.

1. Touch the Tools keypad.

2. Select SELF CLEAN.

3. Select type of Self-Cleaning:

■ Steam: 1 hour: Clean up after everyday light spills using

lower heat and 11/4 cups (295.7 mL) of water.

■ High temp: 4 hours: 3 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.

■ High temp: 5 hours: 4 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.

■ High temp: 6 hours: 5 hour cycle and 1 hour cooling.

4. Follow the prompts on the oven display to prepare the oven.

5. Select START to begin the cleaning process. OR

Select DELAY to set a delayed Self-Cleaning cycle. See the “To Delay Start Self-Cleaning Cycle” section.

The oven doors will automatically lock. NOTE: It may take a couple moments for the oven door to

automatically lock after starting the Self-Clean Cycle. When the self cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools,

the oven doors will unlock.

6. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a damp

cloth.

To Delay Start Self-Cleaning Cycle:

Follow steps 1 through 4 of “To Start Self-Cleaning Cycle,” then:

1. Select DELAY.

2. Select the start time of when the Self-Cleaning cycle should

begin by scrolling from left to right.

3. Select START DELAY.

The oven doors will automatically lock after the Delay Start countdown.

When the Self-Cleaning cycle is complete and the oven cools, the oven doors will unlock.

4. When the oven is completely cooled, remove ash with a

damp cloth.

To Stop Self-Cleaning Anytime:

Touch the Oven Cancel keypad. If the oven temperature is too high, the door will remain locked. It will not unlock until the oven cools.

Steam Clean

The Steam Clean feature is designed for light oven cavity bottom cleaning on models that have hidden bake in the oven.

Do not use oven cleaners. Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the

Steam Clean feature. If your oven cavity is above 200°F (93°C), the Steam Clean feature will not activate until it cools down.

Remove all racks and accessories from the oven cavity. For best results, use 1

water. The Steam Clean feature will take approximately 1 hour. A tone will

sound at the end of the cycle. IMPORTANT: Because the water in the oven bottom is hot, do not

open the oven door during the Steam Clean cycle. Press the Oven Cancel keypad at any time to end the cycle. The

display will return to the time of day.

Helpful Hints

■ Once the Steam Clean cycle is complete and the oven is

completely cooled, remove all remaining water in the bottom of the oven with a sponge or cloth.

■ Wipe any remaining moisture from the oven door interior, oven

cavity interior sides, and cooktop.

■ Use a soft brush or nylon scrubber to wipe the oven interior.

This may help with more stubborn stains.

■ It is recommended to use distilled or ﬁltered water, as tap

water may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom. Use a cloth soaked with vinegar or lemon juice to remove any mineral deposits that may be left after the Steam Clean cycle.

■ If the oven is heavily soiled, use the Self-Cleaning cycle. The

Steam Clean cycle may be used ﬁrst to eliminate most of the debris, resulting in a more effective self-cleaning.

Problem Possible Causes and/or Solutions

Clean cycle did not work on all spills

Warm air coming from oven vent

Convection fan runs during Bake function

Long preheat times

Self-Cleaning cycle will not operate

Oven cooking results not what expected

Several cooking cycles between Clean cycles or spills on oven walls and doors: Run additional Clean cycles. The affresh® Kitchen and Appliance Cleaner can be used for stubborn soils. See the “Accessories” and “Self-Cleaning Cycle” sections for more information.

Warm air coming from the oven vent is normal. During a self-clean cycle, the air stream is increased. The cooling fan may operate both during an oven’s cycle and after the cycle has ended, causing warm

air to exit from the oven vent. It is normal for the convection fan and element to operate during Bake mode to enhance performance

and heat distribution. Not all cycles require preheating. See cycle instructions for preheat recommendations. Most cycles

preheat to 350°F (177°C) in 12 to 17 minutes. Higher temperatures will take more time. Removing unused oven racks prior to preheating can help reduce preheat time.

The oven door is open: Close the oven door all the way. The function has not been entered: See the “Self-Cleaning Cycle” section. A Timed Self-Clean cycle has been set: See the “Self-Cleaning Cycle” section. On double oven models, one oven is self-cleaning: When one oven is self-cleaning, the other

oven cannot be set to self-clean.

The set temperature was incorrect: Double-check the recipe in a reliable cookbook. Oven temperature needs adjustment: See “Temperature Calibration” in the “More Modes” section. Oven was not preheated: See the “Baking and Roasting” section. Racks were positioned improperly: See the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. Not enough air circulation around bakeware: See the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. Batter distributed unevenly in pan: Check that batter is level in the pan. Darker browning of food caused by dull or dark bakeware: Lower the oven temperature 25°F (15°C)

or move rack to a higher position in the oven. Lighter browning of food caused by shiny or light colored bakeware: Move rack to a lower position

in the oven.

Incorrect length of cooking time was used: Adjust cooking time. Oven door was not closed: Be sure that the bakeware does not keep the door from closing. Oven door was opened during cooking: Oven peeking releases oven heat and can result in longer

cooking times. Rack is too close to bake burner, making baked items too brown on bottom: Move rack to higher

position in the oven. Pie crusts browning too quickly: Use aluminum foil to cover the edge of the crust and/or reduce

baking temperature.
