IMPORTANTSAFETY 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 birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers
of potential exposure to such substances.
● The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning
ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure
can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions
should be followed, including the
following:
● Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
● Have the installer show you the location of the

MPORTANT SAFETY ~STRUCTIONS
(continued)
● Do not touch the heating elements or the
interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may
be hot enough to bum even though they are dark
in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact any
interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for
cooling,
tlrst.
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent
openings and surfaces near the openings, crevices
around the oven door, the edges of the door
window and metal trim parts above the door.
Remember: The inside surface of the oven may
be hot when the door is opened.
Q When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in
the remote possibility that trichina may be present
in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be
safe to eat.
Oven
● Stand away from the oven when opening the
●

●
oven door. Hot air or steam which eicapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If the shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let the pot holder
contact the heating elements in the oven.
Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the oven.
Pulling out the shelf to the shelf stop is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods.
It is also
a precaution against burns from touching the
hot surfaces of the door or the oven walls.
When using cooking or roasting bags in
the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
● Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the oven when not in use.
● Do not use oven for storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
● After broiling, always take the broiler pan
out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease
in the broiler pan can catch fire next time you use
the pan.
. Never leave jars or cans of fat dripping on or
near your oven,
Self-Cleaning Oven
● Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
essential
for a good seat. 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. Residue from oven cleaners will
damage the inside of the oven when the
self-cletin
cycle is used.
● Clean only parts listed in this Use and
Care Guide.
● Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler
pan and other cookware.
● Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms,
except as suggested in guide.
Improper
installation of these liners may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire.
● Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
● If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it
serviced by
a quatified technician.

USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how to
set them properly. Read over the directions for the
Oven Controls so you understand how to use them.
2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing them
properly, to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over the information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven.
NOTE:
● A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off,
● You may notice a “burning” or “oily” smell the first
few times you turn your oven on. This is normal in
a
new oven and will disappear in a short time. To spee
the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of ~
hours. See the Self-Cleaning Oven section.
Oven Light
The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when the control panel
light switch is turned on.
Oven Vent
When the oven is on, heated air moves through a vent
above the door or between door and air grille.
The vent area
could get hot during oven use.
The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and
good baking results. Do not block this vent.

Bum~
en Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when
placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will
stop before coming completely out of the oven, and
will not tilt when you are removing food from them
or placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware
on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.
This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward
you, tilt the front end upward and
pull the shelf out.
Be sure the shelf is cool before touching it.
To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with
the stop-locks (curved extension of shelfl facing up
and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and
push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it
goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower
the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.
Shelf Positions
The oven has six shelf supports identified in this
stration as A (bottom), B, C, D, E and F (top).
~~lelf positions for cooking are suggested in the
Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.
NOTE: The highest position (above F) is only
a support. It is not intended to be used as a shelf
position in these models that do not have the
convection feature.

Baking Guides
When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions

in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
~arker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven
at a time.

bacteria. Be sure the oven light is off because heat
from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.
● A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool

ADJUST THE OVEN THEWOSTAT—
DO IT YOURSELF!
You may find that your new oven cooks differently
than the one it replaced. We recommend that you
use your new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it, following the times given in your
recipes
as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot or too cool,
you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think
it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If
you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make
it hotter.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,
to check the temperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers may vary
2040 degrees.

to catch on fire.
3. Position a shelf’ on recommended shelf position as

7. When broiling is finished press the CLEAWOFF
pad. Serve the food immediately and leave the
pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for
easiest cleaning.
Use of Aluminum Foil
/J1,
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack.
However, you must mold the
foil tightly to the rack and cut slits in it just
like the rack.
Without the slits, the
toil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining to
the broiler pan. The juices could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you
do not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.
Questions and Answers
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown
as they should?
A.
ln some areas, the power (voltage) to the oven may
be
low, In these cases, preheat the broil element
for 1 () minutes before placing the broiler pan with
tood in the oven. Check to see if you are using the
recommended
shelf position. Broil for longest
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn the food only once during broiling. You may
need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
A. No. Salt draws out the juices
and allows them to
cvtiporatc. Always salt after cooking. Turn the
meat with tongs: piercing the meat with a fork also
allows juices to escape. When broiling poultry or
fish, brLIsh each side often with butter.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use
a rack in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the rack suspends the meat over the
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the
pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected
by the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing
excessive spatter and smoking.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent
meat from sticking?
A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent
meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying
the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking
spray before cooking will make clean-up easier.

Before a Clean Cycle
The oven must be completely cool in order to set
the self-clean cycle.
We recommend venting with an open window or
using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-
clean cycle.
1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware
and any aluminum foil from the oven—they can’t
withstand the high cleaning temperatures.
NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken,
lose their luster and become hard to slide.
2. Wipe up any
spillovers, residue or ash. Gently lift
the bake element to wipe up the oven floor. Both
the bake
and broil elements are cleaned in the self-
clean cycle. If you use soap to wipe up any excess,
rinse thoroughly to prevent staining during the
clean cycle.
Area Openings
Oven” door
Area

in door gasket

gasket gasket
3. Clean spatters or soil on the oven front frame and
the oven door
outside the gasket with a dampened
cloth. The oven front frame and the oven door
outside the gasket do not get cleaned by the self-
clean cycle. On these areas, use detergent and hot
water or a soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse well
with a vinegar and water solution. This will help
prevent a brown residue from forming when the
oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth.
Do not clean the gasket.
Clean the outside front of the oven door with
soap and water. Also use soap and water to clean
under the oven vent grille. Do not use abrasives
or oven cleaners.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—
the fiberglass material of the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact
and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for
energy-efficient oven operation and good baking
results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn,
frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become
displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.
Do not let water run down through openings
in the top of the door.
4. Close the oven door and make sure the oven
light is off. If the oven light is not turned off,
the life of the bulb will be shortened or it may
burn out immediately. The door latches
automatically after the clean cycle is set.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.
A combination of any of these products plus the
high clean-cycle temperature may damage the
porcelain finish of the oven.
