5 - General Oven Information
Cooling Fan
The fan is situated at the top of the oven and creates a
circulation of cooling air inside the cabinet which comes out
of the slits under the instrument panel of the oven. It comes on
whenever the oven is turned on, for whatever function.
If it fails to come on call the nearest service centre.
Convection Fan
The convection fan operates during any convection mode.
When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the
fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan always runs during the preheat time.
Oven Light
The knob is used to switch on the oven interior lights. Oven
lights turn on and off automatically when the door is opened
and closed.
Rear Oven Vent
An internal cooling fan operates during all oven modes.
The warm air from the oven is exhausted through vents located
at the rear of the cooktop. Do not allow the airflow from the
rear vents to be obstructed by cookware or towels.

6 - General Oven Tips
Preheating the Oven
• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and
Convection Roast modes.
• Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat
time.
• Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes,
cookies, pastry and breads.
• Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.
• Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
Operational Suggestions
• Do not set pans on the open oven door.
• Use the interior oven lights to view the food through the oven
door window rather than opening the door frequently.
Utensils
• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature
25°F (15°C) when baking in glass.
• Use pans that give the desired browning. The type of finish
on the pan will help determine the amount of browning that
will occur.
• Shiny, smooth metal or light non-stick / anodized pans reflect
heat, resulting in lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of cookware.
• Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• For brown, crisp crusts, use dark non-stick / anodized or
dark, dull metal utensils or glass bake ware. Insulated baking
pans may increase the length of cooking time.
• Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven, as this
could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan
outside of the oven.
Oven Condensation and Temperature
• 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.
High Altitude Baking
• When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time
will vary from the standard.
Oven Racks
• The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the
illustration on Page 6.
• Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rack guide
(#1) to the top (#6).
• Check cooking charts for best rack positions to use when
cooking.
• Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the
walls on each side of the oven cavity.
• Always be sure to position the oven racks before turning on
the oven. Make sure that the racks are level and secure once
they are in position.
Please refer to illustration on Page 6 if there is any question
as to which side is the front of the rack.
• The racks are designed to stop when pulled forward to their
limit.
CAUTION
Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line
the oven. It can cause damage to the oven liner if heat is
trapped under the foil.
CAUTION
Make sure you do not force it to avoid damage to the
enamel.
To remove oven rack from the oven:
1. Pull rack forward
2. Lift rack up at front and then remove it

EN
11
6 - General Oven Tips
To replace an oven rack:
1. Place rear of rack between rack level guides
2. While lifting front of rack, slide rack in all the way while
lowering the front
Oven Telescopic Racks
• The telescopic rack allows for easier access to cooking foods
for repetitive activities such as basting. It extends beyond the
standard flat rack bringing the food closer to the user.
CAUTION
When the rack is outside of the oven, slide arms do not
lock. They could unexpectedly extend if the rack is carried
incorrectly. Extending slide arms could cause injury. Rack
should only be held or carried by grasping the sides.
NOTE: Always remove the extendable rack before self-
cleaning the oven.
CAUTION
To avoid burns, pull rack all the way out and lift pan above
handle when transferring food to and from oven.
Please refer to illustration on Page 6 if there is any question
as to which side is the front of the rack.
To remove extendable rack from the oven:
1. Lift of rack slightly and push it towards the back of the oven
until the stop releases.
2. Raise back of rack until frame and stop clear rack guide
3. Pull rack down and out
To replace an extendable rack:
1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides. Place rack (including
frame) above desired rack guide
2. Push all the way in until the back of the rack drops into place
3. Pull both sections forward until stops activate. Rack should
be straight and flat, not crooked

EN

8 - Selecting the Oven Mode
Prior To Use
To ensure all residual oil from the manufacturing process has
been removed, each oven must go through the following
procedure.
1. Clean oven thoroughly with hot water and a mild detergent.
Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
2. Turn on ventilation. Some smoke and odor is normal.
3. Set oven temperature to 250 °F (120°C) and allow oven to
heat for 1 hour.
4. Set oven temperature to 500 °F (260°C) and allow oven to
heat for an additional hour.
5. Turn oven off and allow it to cool with the door closed.
Bake Temperature Control
The temperature control knob serves to set the desired oven
temperature and is equipped with a safety valve. When the
oven is in operation the ON light is illuminated.
To turn on the bottom burner, push the temperature control
knob and turn it counterclockwise to the desired temperature.
The minimum position corresponds to an oven temperature of:
30” = 295°F (145°C)
36” = 275°F (135°C)
The control knob has stop in the minimum position.
The maximum position corresponds to an oven temperature of
30” = 570°F (300°C)
36” = 550°F (290°C)
and is obtained when the knob is turned fully counterclockwise.
The burner will be ignited electrically, and the safety valve
temperature sensor will heat up thereby allowing gas to
continue to flow to the burner.
WARNING
If, when turning the thermostat knob and it does not appear
to function properly, turn off the gas supply to the oven and
call the nearest service center.
Broil
To turn on the broiler, press and turn the knob clockwise to the
broil position.
WARNING
When using the broiler accessible parts may get hot, keep
children at a safe distance.
Ventilated Mode
By turning on the convection fan function, cold air (room
temperature) circulates inside the oven thus helping to rapidly
thaw frozen foods.
The convection fan function turned on together with the strong
heat coming from the bottom burner makes it possible to cook
foods more evenly and delicately than with the bottom burner
alone.
Cooking is faster than in a traditional oven. The system is
suitable for cooking foods of different types (fish, meat etc) on
a number of levels.
Pre-heating is not necessary when using ventilated mode but is
still recommended for baking.

EN
14
9 - Cooking In The Oven
With this cooking method, you can operate the oven in the
normal way and follow the instructions in recipe books.
The food to be cooked should preferably be placed on the
middle shelf of the oven.
WARNING
Prolonged use of gas appliances produces heat and humidity
in the kitchen. This may make additional ventilation such as
opening a window or more efficient ventilation necessary,
for example by boosting the level of mechanical ventilation
where present (suction hood).
