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:
●
Use
this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
● Have the installer show you the location of the
cilcuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
●
L.
fiure
your appliance is properly installed and
grounded
by a qualified technician in accordance
with the provided Installation Instructions.
Q
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
BREA~R.
●
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.

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 coo]
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 speed
the process, set a self-clean
cycle
for a minimum of
3
hours. See the Self-Cleaning Oven section.
Oven Light
Press the OVEN LIGHT pad on the control panel to The light comes on automatically when the door

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.
8

Oven 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 “stop”
positic)n.
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,
pLdl
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

facing up
and
toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front
and

CONVECTION COOKING
What is Convection?
In a convection oven,
I
a fan circulates hot air “
Because food is heated
faster
in a convection oven
over, under and
around the food. This
circulating hot
air
is
evenly distributed
throu&hout
the oven
cavity. As a result,
f’oods
are evenly
cooked and
browned- often in
less time with
convection heat.
when using the convection modes, many types of
food
can be cooked at lower temperatures than
those
suggested
for
regular ovens. Do remember that recipe

When
should
you use Convection Bake or Convection Roast?
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 bake time of over 15 minutes.
In regular or traditional baking,
the bottom
heating 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.
M
Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls,
angel food cake and bread.
Traditional Bake
● Foods such as layer cakes have a more
level
top
crust when baked with traditional heat.
In convection roast,
heat comes from the top heating
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.
Traditional 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
‘~Two
additional shelves
may
be ordered.

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 recommended for convection baking.
● Darkened 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
re&ular
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.

Convection Cookbook.
Preheating is not necessary with
foods
having a bake
time of over 15 minutes.
Check
foods
for
doneness at the minimum suggested
cooking time.
Multi-Shelf Baking
Because heated
air
is circulated evenly throughout the
oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on
two or three 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.

WGULAR
BAK~G
(cont]nued)
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 retlect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
●
Glass baking dishes absorb heat. When baking in
glass baking dishes reduce the temperature 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
X-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.
Baking Guides
When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions
for the best baking results.
Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker 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.
Pies Cakes
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe

from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it. than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it
may
be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended.
Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result in
poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil maybe used
to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf
several inches below the food.
