If the Anti--tip device supplied with the range does
not fit this application, use the universal Anti-7ip
device WB2X7909.
Tocheck ff the device is instated and engaged
properly, carefully tip the range forward. The
Anti--tip device should engage and pravent
the range from tipping over.
If you pull d_e range out flom d_e wall fbr
any reason, make sure fl_e device is propedy

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The Californb Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
Californb to publish a list of substances known
to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposure to such
substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean 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.

Typeof Margarine Wi// Affect Baking Performance!
Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not
give the same results as with a higher
fat preduct.
Recipefailurecanresultffcakes,pies,pastries,
cookiesorcandiesaremadewithlowfatspreads.
Thelowerthefatcontentera spreadproduct,the
morenot/2eab/ethesedifferencesbecome.
Federal stnndards require products labeled
"margarine" to contain at least 80% fi_t by
weight. Low-fia spreads, o1, the other band,
contain less ti_t and more water. The high
moisture content of these spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best results with your old fiivofite recipes,
use maigafine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% _vgetable oil
Preheating and PanPlacement
Preheat the oven if the redpe calls fiw it.
To preheat, set the o\vn at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessaiw fllr
good results when baldng cakes, cookies,
past Uand breads.
Forovens without a preheat/hd/kator I/_Thtor tone,
preheat 10mlbutes.
Onsomemodels,the display will show "PRE"
while preheatlbg. When the ovenreachesthe
selected temperature,the ovencontrol will beep
and the displaywill show the oventemperature.
Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the o_ en as llltlch as
possible. Pans sh(mld not touch each other
or the walls el the o\vn. If v(/u need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so ()lie is not
direcdy abo\v the ethel; and leave
appro_mately 1½" Kern the fl'ont of the
pan to the fl'ont of the shell
Cut slits in the foiljust like risegrid.
Aluminum loft
Never cover the oven bottom with
aluminum foil.
You can use aluminum fidl to line the
broiler pan and bH)iler grid. Howe\vl;
you must mokl the filil tightly to the
grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
_Mmninmn fi)il may also be used to catch
a spillovel: To do so, place a small sheet (If
fi)il on a lower sheff several inches below
the fl)od.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
fi)il. This will distt/rb the heat drculation
and result in pool baking.
Leave the door open to the broil stop
position. The door stays open by itself,
yet the proper temperature is
maintained in the oven,
How to Set the Oven for Broiling (onmodelswithoutanoventemperatureknob)
