Before You Begin
About the Oven Vent
• The oven vent is above the oven chamber and can be
seen when you open the door. When the door is closed,
air is drawn in through a vent at the bottom of the door,
up through the door, out a corresponding vent in the top
of the door through the vent you see at left, and into the
cooktop to cool internal components.
• Proper air circulation promotes burner combustion prob-
lems and ensures good performance. Do not cover/block
any part of the oven's vent system.
• When the oven is in use, be cautious near its door. Steam
and hot air emitted through the vent system can burn
skin and melt certain items.
Important Notes to the Owner
Energy-Saving Tips
• During cooking, the oven door should be closed except when you turn food. Leaving the door closed also
maintains oven temperature, which saves energy.
• If cooking longer than 30 minutes, you can switch the oven off 5-10 minutes before the cooking is done. The
• Plan oven use to avoid turning the oven off between cooking tasks.
• When possible, cook multiple items simultaneously.
• Electrical and gas equipment with moving parts can be
dangerous. Read and follow closely the Important Safety
Instructions section (Pgs. 6 – 10) to minimize risk of prop-
erty damage, personal injury, and death.
• For best results, maintain the range as instructed in this
manual.
• Keep this manual handy for personal and professional
reference.
•
use. Then, ventilate the kitchen well, remove the accesso-
ries from the oven chamber, and set the oven to bake at
400°F (204°C) for1 hour. There will be a distinct odor; this
is normal.

FCC STATEMENT
This equipment was tested and found compliant within the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are meant to reasonably protect against harmful interference in a res-
idential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy, and, if not
installed and used as instructed, may disrupt radio communications. However, interference may still occur
in a given installation, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on. In case of disruption, the
user should try to correct the interference by one or more of these measures:
• Reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna
• Increasing the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connecting the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than the radio/TV
• Consulting the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC RADIATION-EXPOSURE STATEMENT
This equipment complies with FCC radiation-exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and
should be installed/operated with at least 8" (20 cm) between the radiator and your body. This device and
its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
2. IC (Industry Canada) Notice
Operation is subject to two conditions: 1) This device may not cause interference; and 2) this device must
accept any interference received, including that which causes undesired operation. This Class B digital
apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. For products available in the US/Canadian markets, only
Channels 1 – 11 are available.
IC RADIATION-EXPOSURE STATEMENT
The range complies with IC RSS-102 radiation-exposure limits set for an uncontrolled environment and
should be installed/operated so there is at least 8" (20 cm) between the radiator and your body. This device
and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
General Safety Instructions
Testing found the range compliant with limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 18 of FCC rules.
These limits are meant to reasonably protect against harmful interference in a home installation. The
range generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used as directed,
may harmfully impede radio communications; however, interference may still occur in a given installation.
In case of disruption, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the user should try to correct
the condition via one or more of these measures:
• Reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna
• Increasing the separation between the unit and receiver
• Connecting the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than the radio/TV.
