Oven vent location The oven vent is located under the left rear surface element (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air drculation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block the oven vent. Recommended rack positions by food type Food type Position (See Fig.
Air circulation in the oven For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the cookware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and cookware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food. Baking layer cakes Fig.
Cookware material types The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are: Aluminum = Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting). Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily (See Aluminum). Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results, is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
Operating - surface elements Surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The element surface may still be hot and burns may occur if the element or the area surrounding the element is touched before it has cooled sufficiently. - Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite.

Setting bake The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 287°C). The factory preset automatic bake temperature is 350°F (177°C). To set bake 1. Press Bake." 2. "appears Within 5 seconds, press the in the display. A or V • The display • The oven indicator light on the electronic display will turn ON and OFF when using the Bake feature and during preheat. This is normal and indicates that the oven is cycling to maintain the selected baking temperature.
Setting broil Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. When broiling always remember to arrange the oven racks while oven is still cool. Position the rack as suggested in the broil settings table (See Figs. 1 & 3). Insert To set Broil 1. Arrange the oven rack while oven is still cool. 2. Press Broil. "----"will 3. Press and hold the A or V appear in display.
Adjusting the oven temperature Setting Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure an accurate baking temperature. For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and temperature recommendations carefully. If you thinkthe oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your recipe times, you can adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter or cooler than the temperature displayed. To adjust oven tern peratu re" 1, Press Bake.
Self=Cleaning A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth. During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance. The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-deaning cycle of any range.
Setting a self-clean cyde Stopping To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution and avoid possible burns when opening the door after the selfcleaning cycle has completed.
Cleaning recommendation table Surface type Recommendation * Control knobs Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth. ,,, Painted body parts ,,, Painted decorativetrim * Aluminum, plasticorvinyltrim pieces For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and buflt-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry.
Surface elements and drip bowls Make sure drip bowls are in place - Absence of these bowls during cooking may subject wiring or components underneath to damage. - Never immerse a surface element in water. - Be sure the range is cool before removing surface elements or drip bowls. Be careful not to bend terminal ends when replacing surface elements after cleaning. Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls, or reflector pans.
Caution for aluminum use on the cooktop Aluminum Foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the surface elements under ANY circumstances. Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when using the cooktop, the utensil may be damaged or destroyed.
Removing and replacing the lift=off oven door • Toavoid possible injurywhen removing or replacing the oven door, follow the instructions below carefully and always hold the oven door with both hands positioned away from the door hinge area (See Fig. 3). • The door is heavy. For safe, temporary storage, lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing down. To remove oven door: 1. Open oven door completely (horizontal with floor- See Fig. 1). 2.
................ _ ..................... _, _ Problem Solution Poor baking results, - Many factors affect baking results. Hake sure the proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate, Allow the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see "Adjusting Oven Temperature" section in this Use & Care Guide.
Problem Solution Soil not completely removed after selfcleaning cycle, o Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door area outside oven seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket. Oven smokes excessively during broiling, o Incorrect setting.
