How to Remove

Packaging

Tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the
product, the safest way to remove packaging tape
adhesive on new appliances is an application of a
household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral
oil or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow
to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish
to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from the
chrome trim on the oven parts. It cannot be removed
if it is baked on.

Use these numbers in any correspondence

USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your

Oven

1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how to
set them properly. Read over the directions for the
Oven Controls so you understand how to use them.
2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing
properly, to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over the information

them

and tips that follow.

4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven.

NOTE:
• A fan may automatically
turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
• You may notice a "burning" or "oily" smell the first
few times you turn your oven on. This is normal in
new oven and will disappear in a short time. To spee
the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of
hours. See the Self-Cleaning Oven section.

Oven Light
The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when the control panel
light switch is turned on.

Oven Vent
When the oven is on, heated air moves through
above the door or between door and air grille.

a vent

The vent area could get hot during oven use.
The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and
good baking results. Do not block this vent.

Dven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stoa-locks so when
placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will
stop before coming completely out of the oven and
will not tilt when you are removing food from them
or placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the "stop" position. Place the cookware on the
shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will
eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward
you, tilt the front end upward and pull the shelf out.
Be sure the shelf is cool before touching it.
To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with
the stop-locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up
and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and
push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it
goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower
the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.

in the

NOTE: The highest position (above F) is only
a support. It is not intended to be used as a shelf
position in these models that do not have the
convection feature.

BAKING
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately
using an oven control system. We recommend that
you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the
time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar
with your new oven's performance. If you think an
adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven
Thermostat section. It gives easy Do B Yourself
instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.

NOTE: When the oven gets hot, the top and outside
surfaces of the oven get hot too.

How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct
position before you turn the oven on.

3. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finished
and then remove the food from the oven.

1. Press the BAKE pad.

NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and off to
cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run after the oven is turned off.

Preheating
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat
means bringing the oven up to the specified
temperature before putting the food in the oven.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature-selecting a higher temperature does not shorten
preheat time.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat
10 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the
food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent
heat from escaping.

[

]

Baking

Pans

Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
• Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. When baking in
glass baking dishes reduce the temperature by 25°F.

Baking

Pan Placement
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to l%-inch space between pans as well
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.
If you use two shelves, stagger the palls SOone is not
directly above the other.

Guides

When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions
for the best baking results.

Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a .jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven
at a time.

Pies

Cakes

For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet
for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away
from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.

When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended.
(continued

next page)

BAKING
(continued)

Aluminum

Foil

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result in
poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil maybe used
to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf
several inches below the food.

Don't Peek
Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do
not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as "bake 30-40 minutes."

DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum
time. Opening the oven door frequently during
cooking allows heat to escape and makes baking
times longer. Your baking results may also be affected.

• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed to
sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.
Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful
bacteria. Be sure that the oven light is off because heat
from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

foods warm. Food kept in the oven longer than two
hours at these low temperatures may spoil.
• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed
to sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.
Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful
bacteria. Be sure the oven light is off because heat
from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

ADJUST

THE OVEN THERMOSTAT
DO IT YOURSELF!

You may feel that your new oven cooks differently
than the one it replaced. We recommend that you
use your new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it, following the times given in your
recipes as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot or too cool,
you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think
it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If
you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make
it hotter.
We do not recommend
the use of inexpensive
thermometers,
such as those found in grocery stores,
to check the temperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers
may vary 20-40 degrees.

ROASTING
Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or
poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.
Roasting temperatures, which should be low and
steady, keep spattering to a minimum.
Roasting is really a baking procedure used for
meats. Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or
Timed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound,
indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed
Baking will turn the oven on and off automatically.

is necessary.

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing,
after being removed from the oven. Standing time
recommended
for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This
allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to
carve. Internal temperature will rise about 5° to 10°E;
to compensate for temperature rise, if desired, remove
the roast from oven sooner (at 5° to 10°E less than the
temperature in the Roasting Guide).
Remember that food will continue to cook in the
hot oven and therefore should be removed when
the desired internal temperature has been reached.

ROASTING GUIDE
Frozen

Roasts

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started
without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per
pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for
roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting.
Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly.
Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked
successfully without thawing. Follow the directions
given on the package label.

BROILING
Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat
from the upper broil element in the oven. Most fish
and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these
directions to keep spattering
minimum.

Turn the food only once during broiling. Time the
foods for the first side according to the Broiling
Guide. Turn the food, then use the times given for
the second side as a guide to the preferred doneness.

and smoking to a

1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart.
If desired, the fat maybe trimmed, leaving a layer
about 1/8 inch thick.

5. Press the BROIL pad.

2. Place the meat on the broiler rack in the broiler pan.
Always use the rack so the fat drips into the broiler
pail; otherwise the juices may become hot enough
to catch on fire.

6. Press the INCREASE pad once for HI Broil or
press the DECREASE pad once for LO Broil.
To change from HI Broil to LO Broil, press the
BROIL pad then press the DECREASE pad once.

3. Position a shelf on recommended
shelf position as
suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling is
done on E position, but if your oven is connected
to 208 volts, you may wish to use a higher position.

7. When broiling is finished press the CLEAR/OFF
pad. Serve the food immediately and leave the
pail outside the oven to cool during the meal for
easiest cleaning.

Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line
your broiler pan and broiler rack.
However, you must mold the foil
tightly to the rack and cut slits in it
just like the rack.

Questions

[I__

Without the slits, the foil will
prevent fat and meat juices from
draining to the broiler pan. The
juices could become hot enough to
catch on fire. If you do not cut the
slits, you are frying, not broiling.

and Answers

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown
as they should?
A. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the oven may
be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element
for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan with
food in oven. Check to see if you are using the
recommended
shelf position. Broil for longest
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn the food only once during broiling. You may
need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
_,. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to
evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the
meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also
allows juices to escape. When broiling poultry or
fish, brush each side often with butter.

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use
a rack in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the rack suspends the meat over the
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the
pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected
by the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing
excessive spatter and smoking.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent
meat from sticking?
A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent
meat from sticking to the surface. However, spraying
the broiler rack lightly with a vegetable cooking
spray before cooking will make clean-up easier.
(contimwd next page)

BROILING GUIDE
• Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes
with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking
and spattering by trapping the juices in the shielded
lower part of the pan.

• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edge
hang over the sides. These could soil the oven bottom
• The broiler does not need to be preheated.
However, for very thin foods, or to increase
browning, preheat if desired.

• The oven door should be open to the broil
stop position.

• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the eve]
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1 ½ times per side.

• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn the meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing the juices.

• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops thoroughly without over-browning
them
• If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating the broiler and
positioning the oven shelf one position higher.

• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to
10 minutes only.
