Air Circulation in the Oven
If using 1 rack, place in center of oven. If using multiple racks, stagger
cookware as shown.
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the
cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.

BROUL as instructed in the Owner's Guide, Wait for the eUement to become red-hot,
usually about 2 minutes, Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.
To Broil
Broil on side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side, Season and
serve, AUways pull rack out to the "stop" position before turning or removing food,
Determine Broiling Times
Broiling times vary, so watch the food closely, Time not only depends on the
distance from element, but on the thickness and aging of meat, fat content and
doneness preferred, The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than
second, Frozen meats also require additional time,
Broiling Tips
The broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away

Self-Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces
them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth,
Adhere to the following cteaning precautions:
o Allow the oven to cool before cleaning,
o Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven
not to rub, damage or remove the gasket,
o DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket,
Doing so could cause damage,
o Remove the broiter pan and insert, aH utensils and any
aJuminum foil. These items cannot withstand high cteaning
temperatures.
o This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can
remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle, Do not clean this
vegetable oil lubrication off the racks, It is important that the sides
of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil, To
maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of
vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or
when the rack becomes difficult to slide,
o Remove any excessive spiHovers in the oven cavity before
starting the Self-Cleaning cycle, To clean, use hot, soapy water
and a cloth, Large spfllovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when
subjected to high temperatures, 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 as they may leave a
dull spot even after cleaning,
o Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven
door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven
bottom, These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on, Clean with
soap and water,
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the
oven bottom should be removed,
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket, The woven material of the
oven door gasket is essential for a good seal, Care should be taken !ii'_iii!
