from abnormal use, including
excessive loading of the oven
door_ attach the range to the
wall or floor by installing the
Anti-Tip device supplied._ If the
range is moved for cleaning,
servicing or any reason, be
sure the Anti-Tip device is
re-engaged properly when
the range is slid back in the
opening. Failure to do so could
result in the range tipping and
may cause personal injury.
To inspect the Anti-Tip device,
remove the storage drawer and
look to see if the rear leg leveler
fully engages the slot in the
bracket.
If the Anti-Tip device supplied with
the range does not fit this application,
use the universal Anti-Tip device

These ANTI-TIP bracket installation
instructions are for wood or concrete
floors and walls Any other type of
construction may require special
installation techniques to provide
adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor and wall
The use of this bracket does not
prevent tipping of the range when
bracket is net properly installed
NOTE: The installation of the
ANTI-TIP bracket must meet all local
codes for securing appliance
Step 1
Locating the bracket
A_Locate the bracket against the rear
wall and either the right or left
cabinet If the countertop
overhangs the cabinet, offset the
bracket from the cabinet by the
amount of overhang Ifthere is no
adjacent cabinet, position the edge
of the bracket at the desired
location ofthe range side panel
BoUse the bracket as a template
and mark 2 hole positions on the
wall and 2 hole positions on the
floor Use either the wood or
concrete floor set of positions,
depending on your floor type

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
their customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in a
self-cleaning oven will give off a
very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning
cycle° Exposure can be minimized
by venting with an open door or
window or using a ventilation fan
or hood,
IMPORTANT: The health of
some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of any
range, Move birds to another
welFventilated room.

OPERATION
OvenCooking Tips
It is normal to have some odor when
using your oven for the first time To
hetp eliminate this odor, ventilate the
room by opening a window or using
avent hood
Opening thedoor often tocheck foods wiiI
cause heat less andpoor baking results
Preheating is bringingthe oven
temperatureup tothe temperature youwill
be using during baking Let theoven
preheat when recipes call for preheating
Never cover the oven bottom with
aluminum foil.
You can use aluminum foil to line the
broiler pan and broiler grid, However,
you must mold the foil tightly to the
grid and cut slits in it }ust like the
grid
Aluminum foil may also be used to
catch a spillover To do so, place a
small sheet of foil on a lower rack
several inches below the food
Never entirely covet a rack with
aluminum foi! This will disturb the
heat circulation and result in poor
baking
The oven vent is located under
the right rear element This area could
become hot during oven use It is
normal for steam to come out of
the vent and/or collect moisture
underneath when the oven is in
use The vent is important for proper
air circulation Never block this vent.

OvenCookingTips(cont.)
Baking results will be better if baking
pans are centered in the oven as
much as possible tf baking with
more than one pan, place the pans so
each has at least t to 1W of air space
around it If baking four cake layers at
the same time, place two layers on
rack 2 and two layers on rack 4
Stagger pans on the rack so one
is not directly above the other

The racks have stop-locks, so that
when placed correctly on the rack
supports (1 through 6), they will stop
before coming completely out, and
will not tilt
When placing and removing
cookware, pull the rack out to the

To remove a rack, pult it toward you,
titt the front end up and pu_lit out
To replace, place the end of the rack

Broiling is cooking by direct heat
from the upper element The oven
door should remain opened to the

molded tightly to the grid
and slits cut into the foil
to match those of the grid. This
allows fats and liquids to drain
into the broiler pan, preventing
fire and excessive smoke.
Always remove the
pan and grid from . _
the oven. Storingor forgetting a .
soiled broiler pan ....... "
In the oven is a potential smoke
or fire hazard.
The U S Department of Agriculture
recommends to cook meat and
poultry thoroughly--meat to at least
an _NTERNALtemperature of 160_F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of t80°F Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects
against food-borne illness
The closer you place foods to the
broil element, the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning on the outside
Using this positioning, cook side 1 at
least 2 minutes longer than side 2 If
your oven is connected to 208 volts,
you may want to use a higher rack
positien andtor broil foods longer
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature, and your preference of
the aloneness of the meat will affect
broiling The chart on the next page
is based on meats at refrigerator
temperature

To change to LO Broil, press the
