This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the
word "DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean:
You will be killed or seriously injured
if you don't follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured
if you don't follow instructions.
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury,
and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

electrical shock, injury to persons, or
damage when using the oven, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
•Proper Installation - Be sure the oven is
properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician.
•Never Use the Oven for Warming or
Heating the Room.
•Do Not Leave Children Alone - Children
should not be left alone or unattended
in area where oven is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand

let clothing or other flammable
materials contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of oven untilthey
have had sufficient time to cool. Other
surfaces of the oven may become hot
enough to cause burns _-among
these surfaces are oven vent open-
ings and surfaces near these open-
ings, oven doors, and windows of
oven doors.
For self.cleaning ovens:
•Do Not Clean Door Gasket - The door
gasket is essential for agood seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage, or
move the gasket.
•Do Not Use Oven Cleaners - No

1. Position racks.
For correct rack placement, see
the rack placement chart in the
"Positioning racks and pans" section.
IMPORTANT: Never place food directly
on the oven door or the oven bottom.
Your oven(s) has 2 racks and 5 rack
positions. Rack position 5 is the highest
position, or farthest from the bottom of
the oven. Rack position 1 is the lowest
position, or closest to the bottom of
the oven.
NOTES:
• Before turning oven on, position oven
rack(s) in desired location.
•Be sure the rack(s) is level.
•Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect
your hands, if rack(s) must be moved while
oven is hot.
• Do not let pot holder or oven mitt touch
oven bottom.
2. Choose bake setting.

4. When roasting or cooking
casseroles, put food in oven.
You do not have to preheat the oven
when roasting or cooking casseroles.
5. Preheat oven (baking)/start
oven (roasting).
PRESS
After the temperature reaches 170°F
(77°C), the temperature display will show
the actual oven temperature at each 5°F
(or 3°C) increase and stop at the set
temperature. One long tone will sound
when oven is preheated.
6. When baking, put food in oven
after oven is preheated.
NOTE: If you want to change the
baking temperature after baking has
begun, repeat Steps 2, 3, and 4.
7. After cooking, turn off oven.
PRESS
(single ovens)
OR
(double ovens)
Roasting meats and poultry
•For even cooking, place the meat on a
rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the
meat out of the drippings and allows the
heat to circulate better.
, Use a meat thermometer for the most
accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is in
the center of the largest muscle or thickest
portion of the meat or poultry. Make sure
the thermometer is not touching bone, fat,
or the bottom of the pan.
m
Positioning racks and
pans
Place the oven racks where you need them
before turning on the oven.
•To move a rack, pull it out to the stop
position, raise the front edge and lift it out.
•Be sure the rack(s) is level.
•Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect
your hands if rack(s) must be moved while
the oven is hot.
•For best performance, cook on one
rack. Place the
rack so the top of
the food will be
centered in the
oven.
ee: o
O-
•When cooking with two racks, arrange
the racks on the 2nd and 4th rack guides.
Two sheets of cookies may be baked if
sheets are switched at approximately
three quarters of the total bake time. In-
crease baking time, if necessary.
•For best results allow 2 inches (5 cm) of
space around each pan and between
pans and oven walls. Hot air must circu-
late around the pans in the oven for even
heat to reach all parts of the oven. This
results in better baking.

Where to place pans:
WHEN YOU
HAVE PLACE
1 pan In center of the oven rack.
2 pans Side by side or slightly
staggered.
3 or 4 pans In opposite corners on
each oven rack. Stagger
pans so no pan is directly
over another.

NOTE: For information on where to place
your reck when broiling, see "Broiling

Bakeware choices
Baking performance is affected by the type of bakeware used. Use the bakeware size
recommended in the recipe.
BAKEWARE TYPE BEST USED FOR GUIDELINES

•Even browning recommended in recipe.
•Brown, crisp crusts

Using Your Oven
Using aluminum foil
• Do not line the oven bottom with any
type of foil,
liners, or
cookware.
Permanent
damage will
occur to the
oven bottom
finish.
•Do not block
the oven
bottom vents.
•DO not cover the entire rack with
aluminum foil. Doing so will reduce air
circulation and overall oven performance.
= To catch splllovers from pies or
casseroles place foil on the oven rack
below. Foil should be turned up at edges
and be at least I inch (2.5 cm) larger than
dish.
•Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat
or poultry to slow down surface browning
for long term roasting. Remove foil for the
last 30 minutes.
•Use narrow strips of foil to shield
piecrust edges if browning too quickly.

Adjusting oven
temperature
Although your new oven is properly adjusted
to provide accurate temperatures, it may
cook faster or slower than your old oven.
If, after using the oven for a period of time,
you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting
results, you can change the offset tempera-
ture by following the steps below. The control
will "remember" the selected offset even after
the power has been interrupted or lost.
NOTES:
•On double ovens, upper and lower oven
temperature may be adjusted independently.
Press UPPER OVEN/LOWER OVEN.
•DO NOT measure oven temperature with
athermometer. Opening the oven door will
affect the oven temperature and give you
an inaccurate reading. Also, the
thermometer temperature reading will
change as your oven cycles.
•These examples are for double upper
ovens only.Other ovens may look slightly
different.
1. Press and hold BAKE for
5 seconds.

You can set the offset temperature
adjustment as low as -35°F (-21°C) or

Using Your Oven m
Each time you press BROIL, the
displayed temperature will decrease by

desired cooking results. You can determine
cooking results by amount of browning,
moistness, and rising times for baked foods.

3. Close door.
NOTE: Do not keep the door open as on
other electric ovens. Unlike other electric
ovens, the broil element will only stay on
with the door closed. This gives you the
high heat you need for broiling. However
if you leave the door open, the broil
element will go off.

Variable temperature broiling
•If food is cooking too fast or you want
the food to broil slower from the start, set
the broil temperature between 170°F
(77°C) and 325°F (163°C). The lower the
temperature, the slower the cooking.

• Thicker and unevenly shaped cuts of
fish, chicken and other meats may cook
better if you use lower broiling
temperatures when cooking to well-done.
Broiling guidelines
•Use only the broiler pan and grid provid-
ed. They are designed to drain extra juices
from the cooking surface. This drainage
helps prevent spatter and smoke.
•To make sure the juices drain well, do
not cover the grid with foil.
•Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit
the fat on the edges to prevent curling.
• Use tongs to rum meat to avoid losing juices.
•Pull out oven rack to stop position before
turning or removing food.
•After broiling, remove the pan from the
oven when removing the food. Drippings
will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
•For easier cleaning, line the bottom of the
pan with aluminum foil. Clean the pan and
gdd as soon as possible after each use.
Recommended rack positions are
numbered from
O- ri
the bottom (1) to
the top (5). For
best results,
place food
3 inches (7.5 cm)
or more from the
broil element.

Using Your Oven
Timed cooking
NOTE: These examples are for double
upper ovens only. Other ovens may look
slightly different.
The electronic clock/oven control will turn
the oven on and off at times you set, even
when you are not around. Delayed time
cooking is ideal for foods which do not
require a preheated oven, such as meats
and casseroles. Do not use delayed time
cooking for cakes, cookies, etc. - they
will not rise properly. Before using timed
cooking, make sure the clock is set to
the correct time of day. (See the "Setting
the clock" section.)
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than
one hour before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning
or sickness.
