WARNING
When properly cared for, your new Thermador
ovenhasbeendesigned to be a safe, reliable appliance.
Read all instructions carefully before using this
oven. These precautions will reduce the risk of
burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons or
exposure to excessive microwave energy. When
using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions
must be followed, including the following:
Continued on next page

CM Oven Care and Use Manual
General Appliance, Oven and Microwave Oven
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The elimination of soil during self-cleaning
generates some by-products which are on
this list of substances.
To minimize exposure to these substances,
always operate this oven according to the
instructions in this manual and provide
good ventilation to the room during and
immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
• Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.
• In the event that personal clothing or hair
catches fire, drop and roll immediately to
extinguish flames.
• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders in contact with hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam.
• Do not use a towel or other types of bulky cloth
in place of potholders. They may ignite if they
touch a hot element.
GENERAL OVEN SAFETY
• Do not touch hot elements or hot interior
surfaces of the oven.
• The 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
theheatingelementsuntiltheyhavehadsufficient
time to cool.
• The trim on top and on the sides of the oven
door may become hot enough to cause burns.
• Use care when opening the oven door. Open
slightly at first to let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-
up of pressure may cause the container to burst
and result in injury.
• Always place oven racks at desired level while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot
elements.
SELF-CLEANING MODE SAFETY
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses
to warn customers of potential exposure to
substances which are known by the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive
harm. Continued on next page
▲
!WARNING
• Confirm that the door locks and will not open
before starting self-clean mode. If door does not
lock, do not run self-clean; phone 800
/ 735-4328 for
service (see Page 58, for obtaining service.)
• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.
• Keep surfaces of door and oven that come
together free of soil. Refer to cleaning
instructions on Page 52.
• Do not clean the door gasket. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage, loosen or remove the
door gasket . It is essential for a good seal.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
liner protective coating of any kind in or around
any part of the oven.
• Before setting the self-clean mode, remove the
broiler pan, oven racks, other utensils and
excess, soft spillage.
MICROWAVE MODE SAFETY
• Do not tamper with, adjust or repair the door,
safety interlock switches or any other part of
the oven. Repairs must be done by a qualified
service technician.
•Do not operate the microwave mode
when the oven is empty. If food or water is
not present to absorb the energy, the oven
could be damaged with a risk of fire.
• Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in the oven. Newspapers and paper
bags are not suitable for cooking; a fire may
result.
• Do not use recycled paper products unless it is
labeled safe for microwave use. These products
may contain impurities that may cause sparks
and result in a fire.

Microwave Oven
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT: Do not overcook food;fire could result. Proper cooking depends on selecting the correct power
level and cooking time for the amount of food in the oven. Smaller portions of food that are cooked too long may
catch fire. Always have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. When using the
oven at power levels below 100%, you can hear the magnetron cycling on and off. Condensation is a normal part
of microwave cooking. Covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Do not block oven
vents. This oven is rated for 650 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. When preparing foods, check food 1-2
minutes before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
FOOD ITEM OR PROCESS
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples,
whole squash, hot dogs and
sausages so that steam can escape.
• Puncture whole egg yolks before
cooking to prevent explosion.
DON’T
DO
• Use wire twist-tie to close an oven
cooking bag.
• Deep fat fry.
• Use paper towels or cloths that
contain a synthetic fiber woven
into them (the fiber may cause the
towel to ignite).
• Heat baby food in the original jars.
• Heat bottIes with nipples on.
• Heatbottles withdisposableliners.
• Leave oven unattended when
popping popcorn.
• Use brown paper bags or glass
bowls to popcorn in.
• Cook eggs in the shell.
• Reheat whole eggs.
• Drymeals,herbs,fruits, vegetables,
gourds,wood items orwetpapers.
• Dry nuts or seeds in the shell.
• Heat, cook or can in closed glass
jars or air tight containers.
•

close bag.
• Stirliquidsbefore and afterheating
to help prevent “eruption.”
• Baked items with fillings shouId be
cut open to allow steam to escape
and avoid burns.
• Pizzasaucecan become extremely
hot. Check temperatures before
eating.
• Place baby food in a small dish and
heat gently, stir often, and check
temperature before serving.

Heating Modes available in Each Oven
The following illustrations give an overview of what happens in the oven with each mode setting. The arrows repre-
sent the location of the heat source during specific modes.The lower element is concealed under the oven floor.
CONVECTION BROIL
Convection broiling combines the
intense heat from the upper element
with the circulation assisted by the
convection fan.
This air circulation
crisps the exterior surface and
retains inner moisture in meats
more than 1-1/2" thick.
CONVECTION ROAST
Convection roasting combines the
heat from the lower concealed ele-
ment with additional heat from the
convection ring element and the con-
vection fan. The result is a drier,
crispier exterior that seals in the in-
terior juices. It is perfect for roast-
ing tender meats in an uncovered,
low-sided pan.
CONVECTION BAKE
Convection Bake has heat from the
upper and lower element with
circulation assisted by the convection
fan. This mode is designed for breads,
pastries and pies.
CONVECTION or
DEHYDRATE
Convection is cooking with heat
from a third element concealed
behind the back wall of the oven. It
is used with a fan to speed up the
circulation of heated air throughout
the oven. Dehydrating holds an
optimum low temperature while
circulating the heated air to remove
moisture slowly for food
preservation.
BROIL
Broiling uses intense heat radiated
from the upper element to give
excellent top browning or searing.
ROAST
Roasting has more top heat than
baking.
This additional top heat is for
conventional open roasting when
drippings are desired or for covered-
dish roasting.
BAKE or PROOF
Baking is cooking with heated air.
Both upper and lower elements are
used to heat the air and circulate it
to maintain the temperature.
Proof-
ing, while similar to bake,
holds an
optimum low temperature for yeast
dough to rise.

CS2 – Guidelines for Large Roasts and Poultry
• Allow approximately 1/2 the calculated cooking time.
• Use this mode for meats over 4.5 lbs.
• Allow refrigerated meats and poultry to be at room
temp for 15-20 minutes before roasting. Prepare
meats at this time.
• Cook all large meat items on Rack 1, 2 or 3, depending
on height.
• Use bottom broiler pan of 2-piece broiler set.
• For lamb, whole chicken or turkey, use V-rack in
bottom broiler pan.
• Preheat before placing food in oven.
• Do not leave a meat thermometer in meat during
roasting.
• Check food at minimum roasting time for doneness.
• After cooking, allow meat to stand covered with foil
for 15-20 minutes before carving/serving.
• Food will continue to cook during recommended
standing time, and temperatures will even out and
will rise approximately 10-15 degrees during this time.
• Oven probe cannot be used in this mode.
• Refer to Page 41 for Food Safety Guidelines.
Tips for roasting a turkey:
• Remove wire leg clamp from turkey before roasting.
• To prepare turkey for roasting, tuck wings behind
back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
• Cover top of breast and ends of legs with wide strips
of foil. After half of the cooking time has expired,
remove foil on breast area.
• Cook only unstuffed turkeys in this mode.
