Important Safety Instructions

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 pro-

vided Installation Instructions.

The oven must be installed by a

qualified installer. The oven must

be properly connected to electri-

cal 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 prop-

erly.

. 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 materials

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, 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 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. It could catch on

fire.

Keep oven vents unobstructed.

To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your oven properly. This

section gives you important information for efficient and safe use of your oven.

Positioning racks and pans

For baking/roasting with one rack, place

the rack so the top of the food will be

centered in the oven.

Rack placement for specific foods:

Angel and bundt

cakes, most quick

breads, yeast

breads, casseroles,

meats

Cookies, biscuits,

muff ins, cakes,

nonfrozen pies

2nd level from

bottom

2nd or 3rd level

from bottom

When baking on two racks, arrange racks

on bottom and third level from bottom.

NOTE: For recommended rack placement

when broiling, see “Broiling rack position

chart” on page 12.

Personal Injury Hazard

*Always position oven rack(s) in

desired location before turning oven

on. Be sure the rack(s) is level.

l If rack(s) must be moved while oven

is hot, use potholders or oven mitts to

protect hands.

Failure to follow the above precautions

could result in personal injury.

For best air circulation

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.

l Place the pans so that one is not directly

over the other.

l For best results, allow 1% to 2 inches

(4-5 cm) of space around each pan and

between pans and oven walls. There must

be a minimum space of 1 inch (2.5 cm).

l Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at

one time.

Use the following as a guide to determine

where to place the pans:

One pan

Place in the center of the oven rack.

Two pans

Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.

Three or four pans

Place in opposite corners on each oven

rack. Stagger pans so no pan is directly over

another.

Using aluminum foil for baking

Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers

from pies or casseroles:

l Place the foil on the oven rack below the

rack with the food. Turn up foil edges and

make sure foil is about 1 inch (3 cm)

larger all around than the dish holding the

food.

l Do not cover the entire rack with alumi-

num foil. It will reduce air circulation and

cause poor cooking results.

l Do not line oven bottom or entire oven

rack with foil or other liners. Poor baking

will result.

Electrical Shock and Fire Hazard

Do not allow foil to touch the heating

elements.

Failure to follow this precaution could

result in electrical shock or fire hazard

and damage to the elements.

Setting the clock

Push in and turn the Minute Timer Knob to

set the clock.

2. Let the Minute Timer Knob pop out.

Turn clockwise until Minute Timer hand

points to OFF. The clock setting will

change if you push in the knob when

turning.

Using the Minute Timer

The Minute Timer does not start or stop the

oven. It works like a kitchen timer. Set it in

minutes up to an hour. You will hear a

buzzer when the set time is up.

NOTE: Do not push in the knob when setting

the Minute Timer or when stopping the

buzzer. Pushing in and turning the Minute

Timer Knob changes the clock setting.

1. Without pushing it in, turn the Minute

Timer Knob counterclockwise until the

timer hand passes the setting you want.

2. Without pushing it in, turn the knob

back to the setting you want. When the

time is up, a buzzer will sound. To stop

the buzzer, turn the Minute Timer hand

to OFF.

Baking/roasting

1. Position the rack(s) properly before

turning on the oven. To change rack

position, lift rack at front and pull out.

For further information, see “Positioning

racks and pans” on page 6.

2. Set the Oven Selector to BAKE

3. Set the Oven Temperature Control Knob

to the baking/roasting temperature you

want. The OVEN ON Indicator Light will

come on. The oven is preheated when the

OVEN ON Indicator Light first goes off.

NOTE: Do not preheat oven when roasting

or cooking items such as casseroles.

4. Put food in the oven. During baking/

roasting, the elements will turn on and off

to maintain the temperature setting. The

OVEN ON Indicator Light will turn on and

off with the elements.

NOTE: The top element helps heat

during baking/roasting, but does not

turn red.

5. When baking/roasting is done, turn

both the Oven Selector and the Oven

Temperature Control Knob to OFF. The

OVEN ON Indicator Light will go off.

Adjusting the oven temperature control

Oven temperature controls will gradually shift

after years of use. So, even though 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 temperature settings,

you can change them by following these steps:

1. Make sure the Oven Temperature Control

Knob is turned to the off position. Pull knob

straight off and flip it over.

firmly and move the tooth a notch counter-

clockwise. Each notch equals about 5°F

(25°C).

4. To raise the temperature, hold knob handle

firmly and move the tooth a notch clockwise.

Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).

5. Tighten the locking screws and replace the
