IMPORTANT SAFETY 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:
● Have the installer show you the location
of the circuit breaker or fuse.
Mark it for
easy reference.
● Use this appliance only for its intended use
QC described in this guide.
, sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in accordance
with the provided Installation Instructions.
● Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
your oven unless it is specifically recommended
in this guide. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
● Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL
BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF
THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
● Do not leave children alone—Children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
● Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on
the door.
They could damage the oven or cause
severe personal injury.
● CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN
- 4BINETS ABOVE AN OVEN. CHILDREN
LIMBING ON THE OVEN TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
● Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the oven.
● Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the oven.
. Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains
or drapes a safe distance from your oven.
● Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance.
Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
oven. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot heating elements
and may cause severe burns.
● DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
B
● Use only dry pot holders—Moist
or damp pot holders on
hot surfaces
may result in bums from steam. Do
not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth, Such
cloths can catch fire on a hot heating element.
● Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance from
your oven.
● Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your oven.
● For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
● Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
Flame in the oven can be smothered completely
by closing the oven door and turning the oven off
or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-
type fire extinguisher.
● Do not touch the heating elements or the
interior surface of the oven.
These surfaces may
be hot enough to burn 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, first.
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.
● 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. The hot air or steam which escapes
can bum 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.
● 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.
4
● 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 on fire.
● Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
● After broiling, always take the broiler pan
out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease
in the broiler pan can catch on fire the next time
you use the pan.
● Never leave jars or cans of fat dripping on or
near your oven.
● Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms,
except as suggested in this guide. Improper
installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk
of electric shock or fire.
● Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in an oven can ignite.
Self-Cleaning Oven
● Do not clean the door gasket. The door 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. Residue from oven cleaners will
damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean
cycle is used.
c Clean only parts listed in this Use and
Care Guide.
● Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, grid and other cookware.
● Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
● If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn

When should you use Convection Bake or
To help you understand the difference between
convection bake and roast and traditional bake and
roast, here are some general guidelines.
In convection bake, heat comes from the heating
element in the rear of the oven. The convection fan
circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the
food. Preheating is not necessary with foods having
a ‘_-kc time of over 15 minutes.
. ;gular baking, the bottom o~en element heats the
air in the oven which then cooks the food.
Convection Bake
● Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on all 3 shelves.
● Good for large quantities of baked foods.
● Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel
food cake and bread.
Regular Bake
● Foods such as layer cakes have a more level top
crust when not baked with convection heat.
Convection Roast?
In convection roast, heat comes from the top oven
element. The convection fan circulates the heated air
evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry
are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air
will be circulated over, under and around the food
being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly
for a moist and tender product while, at the same
time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
Convection Roast
● Large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
● Roasting pans with low sides to allow air movement
around food.
Regular Roast
● Less tender cuts of meat because these need to cook
a long time in liquid to become tender.
● Cooking bag
● Foil tent
● Covered dish
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check to see
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in
the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave
space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not
touch each other or the walls of the oven.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection
oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are
r’ remended for convection baking.
.kened or matte-finished pans will bake faster
than shiny pans.
● Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is
heat-
resistant to temperatures of 400”F. can also be used.
When baking cookies, you will get the best results
if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with
low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.

Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake For more information on adapting recipes, see the
time of over 15 minutes. Convection Cookbook.
Multi-Shelf Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout
the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results
on 2 or 3 shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may
increase cook times slightly for some foods but the
overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,
biscuits, and other quickbreads give very good
results with multi-shelf baking.
When baking on
3 shelves,
divide the
oven into thirds
by placing the offset

Offset Shelf
For 2-shelf baking, place the offset shelf in the
bottom (A) shelf position. Place the straight shelf in
the third (C) shelf position.
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf
in the lowest position (A), you will need to use
caution when pulling the shelf out. We recommend
that you pull the shelf out several inches and then,
using 2 pot holders, pull the shelf out by holding the
sides of it. The offset shelf is low and you could be
burned if you place your hand in the middle of the
shelf and pull all the way out.
NOTE: When convection baking with only 1 shelf,
follow the shelf positions recommended in Oven
Shelves in the Regular Baking section.

t. .tir and juicy on the inside. In most cases, cooking time will be less
when using the Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking time is

To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it, we recommend
using the temperature probe provided with the oven.
The special roasting rack and broiler pan allow heated air to circulate over
and under the meat. This allows the meat to brown on all sides.

in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat
from escaping.
Baking Pans
Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
● Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat, resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
● Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
● Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking
in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to
be reduced by 25°F.
Pan Placement
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to 1
M-inch space between pans as well
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.
If you use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
directly above the other.
