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 You Get Your Oven

Tips
Self-Cleaning Oven
(on model RK746, the UPPER
OVEN ONLY)
● Do not clean door gasket
before reading special
cleaning instructions in the
Self-Clean section of this
book. 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.
● Clean only parts listed in
this Use and Care Book.
c Before self-cleaning the
oven, remove broiler pan
and other cookware.
● Listen for fan—a fan noise
may be heard sometime during
the clean cycle. This is normal.
● Do not use aluminum foil
to line oven bottoms, except
as suggested in this book.
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 You Need Service
c Read the Problem Solver in
the back of this book.
● Don’t attempt to repair or
replace any part of your range
unless it is specifically
recommended in this book.
All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
● Preheat oven only when necessary.
Most foods will cook satisfactorily
without preheating. If you find
preheating is necessary, listen for
the beep, and put food in oven
promptly after the oven is preheated.
. Always turn oven off before
removing food.
c During baking, avoid frequent
door openings. Keep door open
as short a time as possible if it
is opened.
● Cook complete oven meals instead
of just one food item. Potatoes, other
vegetables, and some desserts will
cook together with a main-dish
casserole, meat loaf, chicken or
roast. Choose foods that cook at
the same temperature and in
approximately the same time.
● Use residual heat in the oven
whenever possible to finish cooking
casseroles, oven meals, etc. Also,
add rolls or precooked desserts to
warm oven, using residual heat to
warm them.

at specific times that you set.
Foods that are highly perishable
such as
milk, eggs, fish, stuffings,
poultry and pork should not be
allowed to sit out for more than
one hour before or after cooking.
Room temperature promotes the
growth of harmful bacteria. Be
sure the oven light is off because
heat from the
bulb will speed
harmful bacteria growth.
NOTE: Before beginning make

How to Set Immediate
Start and Automatic Stop
(Oven turns on right away, cooks
for preset length of time, and turns
off automatically at the preset Stop
Time.)
Step 1: Position the shelf or
shelves in the oven. If cooking on
two shelves at the same time, place
shelves on alternate shelf supports
and stagger food on them.
Step 2: Close the oven door.
Step 3: Touch COOK TIME pad.
Step 4: Press INCREASE pad
until the desired length of baking
time appears in the display.
Step 5: Touch BAKE pad.
Step 6: Press INCREASE or
DECREASE pad until desired
temperature is displayed.
The word “ON” and the rising
oven temperature will be displayed
as the oven heats up. When the
oven reaches the set temperature

programmed amount of time,
then shut off automatically.
Step 7: Remove food from oven.
Remember, even though oven
shuts off automatically, foods
continue cooking after controls
are off.

How to Set Delay Start
and Stop
Quick Reminder:
1. Touch COOK TIME pad.
2. Touch INCREASE/
DECREASE pad to set cooking
time.
3. Touch STOP TIME pad.
4. Touch INCREASE/
DECREASE pad until desired
Stop Time appears in display.

6. Touch INCREASE/
DECREASE
pad to select oven
temperature.
Delay Start and Stop is setting the
oven-timer to turn the oven on and
off automatically at a later time
than the present time of day.
For example: Let’s say it’s 2:00
and dinner time is shortly after
7:00. The recipe suggests 3 hours
baking time at
325°F. Here’s how:
Step 1: Position the shelf or shelves
in the oven. If cooking on two
shelves at the same time, stagger the
pans for best heat circulation.
Step 2: Close the oven door.

Step 4: Press INCREASE pad
until “3:00” appears in the display.
Cook Time of 3 hours now appears
in display.
Step 5: Touch STOP TIME pad.
The earliest possible stop time
appears on display and “STOP
TIME” flashes. The control
automatically sets Stop Time by
adding the Cook Time to the time
of day. In this example, the time of
day is
2:00 and the Cook Time is 3
hours. Adding
3 hours to the time
of day equals 5:00.
Step 6: Change Stop Time from
5:00 to 7:00 by pressing INCREASE
pad until
“7:(M)” appears in the
display.
Step 7: Touch BAKE pad.
Step 8: Touch INCREASE pad.
Press DECREASE pad until “325°”
is displayed.
At 4:00, the oven will turn on
automatically. The word “ON”
and the changing oven temperature
will be displayed as the oven heats
up. Oven
will continue to cook for
the programmed 3 hours and shut
off automatically at
7:00.
Step 9: Remove food from oven.
Remember, even though oven
shuts off automatically, foods
continue cooking after controls
are off.
Note: The low temperature zone of
this range (between
150°F. and
200°F.) is available to keep hot
cooked foods warm. Food kept in
the oven longer than two hours at
these low temperatures may spoil.
When setting your oven for a delay
start, never let foods such as dairy
products, fish, meat, poultry, etc.
stand for more than
1 hour before
actual cooking begins. Room
temperature promotes the growth of
harmful bacteria. Be sure the oven
light is off because heat from the
bulb will speed bacteria growth.

Baking Guide
1. Aluminum pans conduct heat
quickly, For most conventional
baking, light, shiny finishes give
best results because they help
prevent
overbrowning. For best
results, we recommend dull bottom
surfaces for cake pans and pie
plates.
2. I>ark or non-shiny finishes and
glass cookware generally absorb
heat, which may result in dry, crisp
crusts. Reduce oven heat
25°F. if
lighter crusts are desired. Rapid
browning of some foods can be
achieved by preheating cast iron
cookware.
cooking times, preheating gives
best appearance and crispness.
Although preheating is not
necessary with meats, it is
preferred for baked goods.
4. Open the oven door to check
food as little as possible to prevent
uneven heating and to save energy.
3. Preheating the oven is not
always necessary, especially for
foods which cook
longer than 30 to
40 minutes. For food with short

Roasting
Roasting is cooking by dry heat
Tender meat or poultry can be
roasted uncovered in your oven.
Roasting temperatures, which
should be low and steady, keep
spattering to a minimum. When
roasting, it is not necessary to
sear, baste, cover or
add water
to your meat.
Roasting is really a baking
procedure used
for rncats.
Therefore, oven controls are set for
BAKE. (You may hear a slight
clicking sound, indicating the oven
is working properly. ) Roasting is
easy; just follow these steps:
Step 1: Check weight of meat, and
place, fat side up, on roasting rack
in a shallow pan. (Broiler pan with
rack is a good pan for this. ) Line
broiler pan with aluminum foil
when using pan for
nlarinatillg,
cooking with fruits, cooking
heavily cured meats, or basting
food during cooking. Avoid
spilling these materials on oven
liner
or door.
Step 2: Place in oven on shelf in
A or B position. No preheating
is necessary.

Remember [hat food will continue
to cook in the hot oven and
therefore

the desired internal temperature
has bCCIl reached.
For Frozen Roasts
● Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb,
etc., can be started without thawing,
but allow 10 to 25 minutes per
pound additional time (10 minutes
per pound for roasts under 5
pounds, more time for larger roasts).
● Thaw most frozen poultry before
roasting to ensure even doneness.
Some commercial frozen poultry
can be cooked successfully without
thawing. Follow directions given
on package label.
Questions and Answers
Q. Is it necessary to check for
doneness with a meat
thermometer?
A. Checking the finished internal
temperature at the completion of
cooking time is recommended.
Temperatures are shown in Roasting
Guide on opposite page. For roasts
over 8
lbs., cooked at 300°F. with
reduced time, check with
thermometer at half-hour intervals
after half the cooking time has
passed.
Q. Why is my roast crumbling
when I try to carve it?
A. Roasts are easier to slice if
allowed to cool 10 to 20 minutes
after removing from oven. Be sure
to cut across the grain of the meat.
Q. Do I need to preheat my
oven each time
I cook a roast
or poultry?
A. It is unnecessary to preheat
your oven.
Q. When buying a roast, are
there any special tips that would
help me cook it more evenly?
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in
thickness as possible, or buy
rolled roasts.
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil
“tent” when roasting a turkey?
A. Sealing the foil will steam the
meat. Leaving it unsealed allows
the air to circulate and brown
the meat.

1. Always use broiler pan and rack
that
comes with your oven. It is
designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the
shielded lower part of the pan. 4. If desired, marinate meats or
chicken before broiling. Or brush
with barbecue sauce last 5 to
10
minutes only.
2. Oven door should be ajar for all
foods except chicken; there is a
special position on door which
holds door open correctly.
5. When arranging food on pan, do
not let fatty edges hang over sides,
which could soil oven with fat
dripping.
3. For steaks and chops, slash fat
evenly around outside edges of meat.

Care and Cleaning
(See Cleaning Guide)
Proper care and cleaning are
important so your oven wil I give
you efficient and satisfactory
service. F
O 11 OW these directions
carefully in caring for your oven to
assure safe and proper maintenance.
Oven Shelves
Oven shelves may be cleaned with
a mild abrasive cleanser following
manufacturer’s directions. After
cleanin&, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a
clean cloth.
To remove heavy, burned-on soil,
soapy metal pads may be used
following manufacturer’s
directions. After scrubbing, wash
with soapy water, rinse and dry.
Oven shelves may be cleaned in
self-cleaning oven. However, they
will darken, lose their luster and
become hard to slide. Wipe the
shelf supports with cooking
oil
after self-cleaning to make shelves
slide more easily.
Broiler Pan & Rack
After broiling, remove the broiler
rack and carefully pour off the
grease. Wash and rinse the pan and
rack in hot, soapy
water.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the
rack while hot with detergent and
cover with wet paper towels or a
dish cloth. That way, burned-on
foods will soak loose while the
meal is being served.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan
and rack in the oven. Do not clean
in self-cleaning oven.
Oven Light Bulb
The light bulb is located on the
back wall of the oven. Before
replacing the bulb, disconnect
electric power to the oven at the
main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Let the bulb cool completely
before removing it. Do not touch a
hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you
do, the bulb will break.
The oven lamp (bulb) is covered
with a removable glass cover
which is
held in place with a bail-
shaped wire. Remove oven door, if
desired,
to reach cover easily.
TO remove:
● Hold hand under cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With
fingers
of same hand, firmly push
back wire bail until it clears cover.
Lift off cover. DO NOT REMOVE
ANY SCREWS TO REMOVE
COVER.
● Replace bulb with 40-watt home
appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
● Place it into groove of lamp
receptacle. Pull wire bail forward
to center of cover until it snaps
into
place. When in place, wire
holds cover firmly. Be certain wire
bail is in depression in center
of cover.
● Connect electric power to oven.
Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removtihle to
make the interior more accessible.
To remove the
door, open it a fcw
inches to the special s[op position
that will hold the door
open, Grasp
firmly on each side and lift
the
door straight up and off the hinges.
Note: Be careful not to place hands
between the hinge
and the oven
door frame as the hinge could snap
back and pinch fingers,
To replace the door, make sure
the hinges are in the special stop
position. Position
the slots in [hc
bottom of the door squtirety over
the hinges. Then lower the door
slowly and evenly over both
hinges at the same time. If hinges
snap back against the oven
frame,
pull them back out.

Porcelain Oven Interior
Standard Lower Oven
With proper care, the porcelain
enamel finish on the inside of the
oven—top, bottom, sides, back
and inside of the door—will stay
new-looking for years.
Let oven cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber

spillovers may require cleaning
with a mild abrasive cleanser.
Soapy, wet metal pads may also be
used. Do not allow food spills with
a high sugar or acid content (such
as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface. They may cause a dull
spot even after cleaning.

loosen the burned-on grease and
food.
If necessary, you may use a caustic
cleaner. Follow package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on
oven cleaners:
● Do not spray oven cleaner on the
electrical controls and switches
because it could cause a short
circuit and result in sparking or
fire.
● Do not allow a film from the
cleaner to build up on the
temperature sensor—it
could cause
the oven to heat improperly. (The
sensor is located at the top of the
oven. ) Carefully wipe the sensor
clean after each oven cleaning,
being careful not to move the
sensor as a change in its position
could affect how the oven bakes.
● Do not spray any oven cleaner on
the oven door, handles or any
exterior surface of the oven, wood
or painted surfaces. The cleaner
can damage these surfaces.
you may make a simple adjustment
in the thermostat (OVEN TEMP)
knob.
Pull the knob off the shaft, look
at the back of the knob and not
the current setting before making
any adjustment. The knob is
factory set with the top screw
directly under the pointer.
To adjust the thermostat:
1. Pull off the knob.
2. Loosen both screws on back of
the knob.
3. Hold both parts of the knob and
turn so the top screw moves in the
desired direction. HOTTER to
increase temperature, COOLER to
decrease temperature. You will
hear and feel the notches as you
turn the knob. Each notch changes
temperature about 15°.
4. Tighten the screws.
5. Return the knob to the range.
Recheck oven performance before
making an additional adjustment.

Operating the Self-Cleaning Oven
(Models with Electronic Oven Control)
Normal Cleaning Time: 3 hours
Before a Clean Cycle
Step 1: Remove the broiler pan,
broiler
ruck, all cookware and any
aluminum
foil from the oven—
they
can not withstand the high
cleaning temperatures. (Oven
shelves may be left in oven. Note:
Shelves will discolor after the
self-clean cycle. )
Step 2: Wipe up heavy soil on the
oven bottom.

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

Clean top, sides and outside front
of oven door with soap and water.
Do not use abrasives or oven
cleaners.
Do not let water run down through
openings in the top of the door (B).
To help prevent water from getting
in these slots when cleaning, open
the door as far as it will

the shelf supports with cooking
oil after self-cleaning to make
shelves slide more easily.
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
temperatures may damage the
porcelain finish of the oven.
Important
The oven door must be closed and
all controls must be set correctly
for the clean cycle to work properly.
After a Clean Cycle
After a clean cycle, you may notice
some white ash in the oven. Just
wipe it up with a damp cloth.
It white spots remain, remove them
with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
Be sure to rinse thoroughly with
a
vinegar and water mixture. These
deposits are usually
a salt residue
that cannot be removed by the
clean cycle.
If the oven is not clean after otle
clean cycle, the cycle may be
repeated.

For example: Let’s say it’s 7:00
and you want the oven to begin
self-cleaning at
9:00 after you’re
finished in the kitchen. The oven
is just
soiled a normal amount so

Questions and Answers
~. If my oven clock is not set to

oven cleaners on any part
of my
self’-cleaning oven?
A. No
clctiners or cotitings should
be used around any part of this
oven. If yoLI do use them and
do not wipe the oven absolutely
cletin, the residue can scar the
oven surface
and damage metal
parts the next time the oven is
automat
ical ly cleaned.
Q.
Can I clean the Woven
Gasket around the oven door?
A. Yes, but carefully, and only
with a clean sponge to soak the

Adjusting Oven Thermostat
(Electronic Oven Control)
When cooking a food for the first
time in your oven, use time given
on recipes as a guide. Oven
thermostats, over a period of years,
may “drift” from the factory setting
and differences in timing between
an old and a new oven of 5 to I
()
minutes are not unusual and you
may be inclined to think that the
new oven is not performing
correctly. However, your new oven
has been set correctly at the ftictory
and is more apt to be accurate than
the oven it replaced.
If you think the oven should be
hotter or cooler, you can adjust it
yourself. To decide how much to
change the temperature, set the
oven temperature
25°F. higher or
lower than the temperature in your
recipe, then bake. The results of
this “test” should give you an
idea
of how much the temperature
should be changed.
To adjust temperature:
1. Touch BAKE pad.
2. Select an oven temperature
between
500°F. and 5500F.
3. Immediately, before ON is
displayed, press and hold the
BAKE pad for about 4 seconds.
The red display will change to the
oven adjustment display.
4. The oven temperature can be
adjusted up to
(+) 35°F. hotter or
(–)
35°F. cooler. Use the
INCREASE or DECREASE pads
to select the desired change in the
red display.
5. When you have made the
adjustment, press the CLEAR/OFF
pad to go back to the time of day
display. Use your oven as you
would normally.
NOTE: This adjustment will not
affect Broil or Clean temperatures.
It will be remembered when power
is removed.
