Your safety is important to us.
This guide contains safety statements
under warning symbols. Please pay special
attention to these symbols and follow any
instructions given. Here is a brief explanation
of the use of the symbol.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
wWARNING
Oven Safety
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, injury to persons, or damage
when using the oven, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
General
•Read all instructions before using
the oven.
•Install or locate the oven only in
accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. The oven
must be installed by a qualified
installer. The oven must be
properly connected to electrical
supply and grounded.
•CAUTION: Do not store things
children might want above the
oven. Children could be burned
or injured while climbing on it.
•Do not leave children alone or
unattended 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 operate the oven if it is
damaged or not working properly.
•Do not use the oven for warming
or heating the room. Persons
could be burned or injured, or a
fire could start.
•Use the oven only for its intended
use as described in this manual.
•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 mate-
rials contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of oven until they
have had sufficient time to cool.
Other surfaces of the oven, such
as the oven vent opening, the
surface near the vent opening,
and the oven door and window,
could also become hot enough to
cause burns.
•Do not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the oven.
They could ignite if they touch a
hot heating element and you
could be burned.
•Use only dry pot holders. Moist
or damp pot holders on hot sur-
faces could result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holder touch
hot heating elements. Do not use
a towel or bulky cloth for a pot
holder. It could catch on fire.
•Keep oven vents unobstructed.
This symbol alerts you to
hazards such as fire, electrical
shock, or other injuries.

5
•Do not heat unopened contain-
ers. They could explode. The
hot contents could cause burns
and container particles could
cause injury.
•Use only cookware approved
for oven use. Follow cookware
manufacturer’s instructions,
especially when using glass
or plastic cookware.
•Do not store flammable materials
on or near the oven. The fumes
could create an explosion and/or
fire hazard.
•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.
•Disconnect the electrical supply
before servicing the oven.
When using the oven
•Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan by covering
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet,
or flat tray. Flaming grease out-
side of pan can be extinguished
with baking soda or, if available,
a multipurpose dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
•Always position oven rack(s) in
desired location while oven is
cool. If a rack must be removed
while oven is hot, do not let pot
holder contact hot heating
elements in oven.
•Use care when opening oven
door. Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or
replacing food.
Care and cleaning
•Small amounts of formaldehyde
and carbon monoxide are given
off in the Self-Cleaning cycle
from fiberglass insulation and
food decomposition. Significant
exposure to these substances
can cause cancer or reproductive
harm. Exposure can be mini-
mized by venting with a hood or
open window and wiping out
excess food spills prior to self-
cleaning.
•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.
•Before self-cleaning the oven,
remove broiler pan, broiler grid,
oven racks, and other cookware.
Do not use your oven to clean
miscellaneous parts unless you
are instructed to do so in this Use
and Care Guide.
•Do not clean door gasket. It is
essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, dam-
age, or move the gasket. Clean
only parts recommended in this
Use and Care Guide.

1. Position racks.
For correct rack placement, see
“Rack placement” chart on page 20.
Your upper/single oven has 3 flat racks
and 5 rack positions. Your lower oven
has either 2 or 3 racks (depending on
model) 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, place oven racks
where you need them.
•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.
•See pages 20 and 21 for additional baking
and convection baking tips.

Cooking tips
Baking/convection baking tips
The hot air must circulate around the pans in
the oven for even heat to reach all parts of
the oven. This results in better baking.
For best air circulation:
•Place the pans so that one is not directly
over the other.
•For best results, allow 11⁄2to 2 inches of
space around each pan and between pans
and oven walls.
•When baking with one pan, place pan in
the center of the oven rack.
•When baking with two pans, place pans
in opposite corners of the oven rack.
NOTE: “Oven peeking” may cause heat
loss, longer cooking times, and unsatisfac-
tory baking or roasting results. Rely on
your timer.
Baking tips
(Bake pad)
For proper cooking, follow these
guidelines:
•When using one rack, place the rack
so the top of the food will be centered in
the oven.
•When using more than one rack, use the
Convection Bake setting.
•Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at
a time when using the Bake setting.

Using Your Oven
NOTE: See “Baking or convection baking”
on page 16 for additional baking tips.
Bakeware tips
•When baking with insulated cookie
sheets or baking pans, place them in the
bottom third of the oven. You may need to
increase the recommended baking times,
so test for doneness before removing from
the oven.
•When using ovenproof glassware or dark
bakeware, reduce the oven temperature
by 25°F, but use the same baking time.
Because these pans absorb heat, produc-
ing darker bottom browning and crispier
crusts, place the rack in the center of
the oven. When baking pies and bread,
you can use the temperature called for
in the recipe.
Using aluminum foil in the oven
(for thermal baking)
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from
pies or casseroles.
•Place the foil on the oven rack below the
rack with the food. Turn foil edges up and
make sure foil is about 1 inch (3 cm) larger
all around than the dish holding the food.
