Important
Safety
lnstructions
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using the
oven, follow basic precautions, including
the following:
. Read all instructions before using the oven.
. Install or locate the oven only in accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. It is recommended that the oven be installed
by a qualified installer. The oven must be properly connected and
grounded to electrical supply.
. Do not use the oven for warming or heating the room. Persons could
be burned or injured, or a fire could start.
. Do not leave children alone in area where the oven is in use. They
should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven. They
could be burned or injured.
. Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the oven. They
could ignite if they touch a heating element and you could be burned.
. Do not repair or replace any part of the oven unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
. Do not store flammable materials in or near the oven. They could
explode or burn.
. Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan by covering with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet
or flat tray. Flaming grease outside of pan can be extinguished with
baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a potholder.
They could catch on fire.
. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
. Do not heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot
contents could cause burns and container particles could cause injury.
. Keep oven vents unobstructed.
. Always position oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If
rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact
hot heating element in oven.
. Do not clean door gasket. It is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket. Clean only parts
recommended in this manual.
. 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.

16. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven
racks and other utensils. Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous
parts.
17. Do not store things children might want above the oven. Children
could be burned or injured while climbing on it.
18. Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of oven. Heating
elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior
surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the oven may become hot
enough to cause burns; such as, the oven vent opening, the surface
near the vent opening, the oven door, and the oven door window.
— FOR YOUR SAFETY —
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND
LIQUIDS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THE
FUMES CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR EXPLOSION.

Electronic Clock Operation
The electronic clock controls all timed
operations for the single/upper oven. It
consists of the Display Window, START
button, TIME knob and STOP/CANCEL
button. When your oven is first
connected to the power in your home,
“00:00” will appear in the Display
Window.
To set the time of day:
1. Turn the TIME knob to the left until
a tone is heard and “TIME” appears
in the Display Window. The
previously set time (or “ 12:00’) will
appear in the Display Window.
2. Continue turning the TIME knob in
either direction until the correct
time of day appears in the Display
Window.
3. Press the START button to begin
clock operation.
To use the minute timer:
The Minute Timer can be programmed
from 5 seconds to 99 minutes for
precise timing of short and long-term
cooking, or any other activity. The
Minute Timer is only an audible
reminder and will not turn the oven
ON or OFF.
1. To use, turn the TIME knob to the
right. The Display Window will
immediately change to “:05” and
“TIMER” will be displayed.
2. Continue turning the TIME knob
until the desired time is displayed
{in minutes and seconds] in the
Display Window.
3. To start the Minute Timer, press the
START button.
The Display Window will continue to
show “TIMER” and the selected
time will begin counting down. At the
8
end of the timed period, “TIMER” will
appear in the Display Window and
flash rapidly and a tone will sound for
3 seconds, after which an intermittent
tone will sound until the Minute Timer
is cancelled, or until a total of 15
minutes have elapsed.
IMPORTANT: The current time of day
may be checked while the Minute
Timer is in use by touching the START
button. The time of day will be
displayed for 7 seconds, then return to
the Minute Timer program in progress.
Press the STOP/CANCEL button
once to turn off the alarm at the end of
the Minute Timer program.
To cancel a Minute Timer program in
progress, press the STOP/CANCEL
button once. A tone will sound and
the clock will return to the time of day.
When turning the TIME knob to set
the Minute Timer, the time will
appear in the Display Window and
increase in the following increments:
From 5 seconds to 2 minutes 5 second
increments
From 2 minutes to 10 minutes 10 second
increments
From 10 minutes to 20 minutes 30 second
increments
From 20 minutes to 99 minutes 1 minute
increments
IMPORTANT: The Minute Timer may
be used at the same time as an
Automatic Time Cooking or Self-Clean
program. The Time Cooking or Seif-
Clean program must be set first, then
the Minute Timer. One touch of the
STOP/CANCEL button will cancel the
Minute Timer and two touches will
cancel the cooking or cleaning
program.

Single/Upper Oven
Controls
The single/upper oven can be used for
baking, roasting and broiling. The oven
has two controls — a Selector and a
Temperature Control. Both must be set
for the oven to work.
The selector has five settings:
BROIL — The top elements will operate
at full power whenever heating. Use
this setting for broiling.
CLEAN — Use this setting for self-
cleaning only.
TIME BAKE — The bottom element and
outer top element operate at full
power and glow red whenever
heating. Use this setting for Automatic
Time Baking.
BAKE — The bottom element and outer
top element operate at full power and
glow red whenever heating. Use this
setting for baking, roasting and
casseroles.
OFF — Use this setting to turn the
oven off.
Temperature control:
The Temperature Control can be set at
any temperature from WARM (150°F}
to BROIL (550°F}, or on CLEAN.
Settings WARM to 225°F are
suggested for warming and holding
foods. Be sure the Temperature
Control is turned fully counter-
clockwise when the oven is not in use.
Lower Oven Control
(For Double Ovens)
The lower oven can be used for
baking, roasting and broiling. It is
controlled by a single Temperature
Control, with settings from WARM
{150°F) to BROIL (550°F). Be sure
the Temperature Control is turned
to OFF when the oven is not in use.
IMPORTANT: The lower oven will not
operate while the upper oven is being
cleaned.
Preheating The Oven
For best results, preheat the oven until
the Oven Cycle Light goes out, unless
the recipe states otherwise. Set the
Selector to BAKE and the Temperature
Control to the desired temperature.
Exercise care in turning the
Temperature Control so you do not go
past the desired set point. If you
accidentally go past the desired
setting, turn the dial fully counter-
clockwise and then reset to the
desired setting to get an accurate
temperature setting. The Oven Cycle
Light will go out when the desired
temperature has been reached and will
cycle on and off with the elements
during the heating period.
Be sure the Selector is turned to OFF
and the Temperature Control is turned
fully counterclockwise or to OFF when
the oven is not in use.

Baking In The Oven
Single/upper oven:
1. Arrange the oven racks in the
desired positions.
2. Turn the Selector to BAKE.
3. Set the Temperature Control to the
recommended temperature. See the
“Baking chart” on page 12.
4. Place the food in the oven after the
Oven Cycle Light goes out, or
when the recipe specifies.
Be sure to tur the Selector to OFF
and the Temperature Control! fully
counterclockwise when cooking has
been completed.
Lower oven (for double ovens):
1. Arrange the oven racks in the
desired positions.
2. Set the Temperature Control to the
recommended temperature. See the
“Baking chart” on page 12.
3. Place the food in the oven after the
Oven Cycle Light goes out, or
when the recipe specifies.
Be sure to turn the Temperature
Control to OFF when cooking has
been completed. The oven will remain
ON if left at any other setting.

Rack positions:
There are two racks for each oven.
One rack is straight and the other is
offset. The offset rack permits
intermediate positions for the
placement of food within the oven.
Your KitchenAid oven has four rack
positions. Rack position 4 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. Be sure to arrange
the oven rack(s) before putting foods
into the oven or tuming the oven on.
To remove oven racks:
1. Pull rack out until bar on back of
rack touches first stop.
2. Lift front of rack up until rear
position of rack slides out between
the two front stops.
