Read aJ! instructions before using this appliance. When using gas

or electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed,

including the following:

See Installation

Instructions

These ANTI-TIP bracket installation

instructions are for wood or concrete

floors and walls. Any other type of

construction may require special

installation techniques to provide

adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP

bracket to the floor and wall.

The use of this bracket does not

prevent tipping of the range when

bracket is not properly installed.

NOTE: The installation of the

ANTI-TIP bracket must meet all

local codes for securing appliance.

Step 1

Locating the bracket

A. Locate the bracket against the rear

wall and either the right or left

cabinet. If the countertop

overhangs the cabinet, offset the

bracket from the cabinet by the

amount of overhang. If there is no

adjacent cabinet, position the edge

of the bracket at the desired

location of the range side panel.

B. Use the bracket as a template

and mark 2 hole positions on the

wall and 2 hole positions on the

floor. Use either the wood or

concrete floor set of positions,

depending on your floor type.

See Fig. 1.

IMPORTA#TSAFETY

/#STRUCT/O#S

_WARNING!

To prevent accidental

tipping of the range

from abnormal use, including

excessive loading of the oven

door, attach the range to the

wall or floor by installing the

Anti-Tip device supplied. If the

range is moved for cleaning,

servicing or any reason, be

sure the Anti-Tip device is

re-engaged properly when

the range is slid back in the

opening. Failure to do so could

result in the range tipping and

may cause personal injury. To

inspect the Anti-Tip device,

remove the storage drawer and

look to see if the rear leg leveler

fully engages the slot in the

bracket.

Important: To ensure safety for

yourself, family, and home, please

read your Owner's Manual carefully.

Keep it handy for reference. Pay

close attention to Safety Sections.

BE SURE your appliance is installed

and grounded by a qualified

technician.

iMPORTANT SAFETY

NOTICE!

The California Safe Drinking

Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

requires the governor of California

to publish a list of substances

known to the state to cause birth

defects or other reproductive harm

and requires businesses to warn

their customers of potential

exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in a

self-cleaning oven will give off a

very small amount of carbon

monoxide during the cleaning

cycle. Exposure can be minimized

by venting with an open door or

window or using a ventilation fan

or hood.

IMPORTANT: The health of

some birds is extremely sensitive

to the fumes given off during

the self-cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another

well-ventilated room.

•DO NOT leave children alone

or unattended near an appliance

in use.

•TEACH CHILDREN not to play with

controls or any part of the appliance

and not to sit, climb, or stand on the

door or any other parts of the

appliance.

•CAUTION: NEVER STORE

items of interest to children on the

backguard or in cabinets above the

appliance. Children climbing on the

appliance could be seriously injured.

•KEEP THIS book for later use.

•NEVER TRY to repair or replace

any part of the appliance unless

instructions are given in this manual.

All other work should be done by a

qualified technician.

•NEVER USE your appliance for

warming or heating the room.

iMPORTANTSAFETY

iNSTRUCTiONS

• ALWAYS KEEP combustible wall

coverings, curtains, dishcloths,

towels, potholders and other linens

a safe distance from the appliance.

•NEVER HEAT unopened food

containers. Pressure buildup can

cause the container to burst and

cause injury.

•NEVER LEAVE containers of fat or

drippings in your oven.

•ALWAYS KEEP the oven and

surface unit areas free from things

that will burn. Food, wooden

utensils, and grease buildup could

catch fire. Plastic utensils could

melt and canned foods could

explode. Your appliance should

never be used as a storage area.

•ALWAYS KEEP your appliance

clear of things that will burn

(gasoline and other flammable

vapors or liquids).

• NEVER TRY toclean hot

surfaces.Some cleanersproduce

noxiousfumes, and wet clothsor

sponges couldcause steam burns.

• NEVER WEAR loose-fittingclothing

•DO NOT touch heating elements,

surfaces near them, or interior oven

surfaces. These may be hot enough

to cause burns even though they

are dark in color. During and after

use, do not touch or let clothing or

flammable material contact the

elements or hot surfaces until they

have had time to cool. Other

surfaces near the oven vent

openings, oven door and window

and cooktop surfaces may also be

without breaking due to the sudden

temperature changes.

•ALWAYS USE care when touching

cooktop elements. They will retain

heat after the range has been

turned off.

•NEVER BLOCK the oven air vent

under the right Fearelement.

•COOKWARE USED for cooktop

cooking should be flat on the bottom

and large enough to cover the heating

area being used. Undersized utensils

expose the heating element and may

result in direct contact or ignition of

clothing. The proper size utensil will

also improve efficiency.

•ALWAYS USE drip bowls to prevent

wiring and component damage. DO

NOT use aluminum liners or foil in drip

bowls. Improper use may result in risk

of electric shock or fire.

•NEVER LEAVE surface units

unattended at high settings. Boilovers

result in smoking or greasy spills

which could catch fire.

•ALWAYS TURN utensil handles

inward and away from other surface

units to reduce the risk of burns,

ignition, unintended contact, and

spillage.

•NEVER put heating elements in water.

• WHEN PREPARING flaming foods

under the vent hood, turn the fan on.

OPERATION

OvenCookingTips

It is normal to have some odor when

using your oven for the first time. To

help eliminate this odor, ventilate the

room by opening a window or using

a vent hood.

iMPORTANT: Never cover the oven

bottom or oven rack with aluminum

foil. Improper use can cause poor

heat flow, poor baking results, and

may damage the oven finish. To

prevent staining from spillovers, you

may place a piece of aluminum foil or

a cookie sheet on the rack below the

food which may spill over.

Opening the door often to check

foods will cause heat loss and poor

baking results.

Preheating is bringing the oven

temperature up to the temperature

you will be using during baking. Let

the oven preheat when recipes call

for preheating.

To prolong the life of your oven light

bulb, follow this helpful tip: Always

turn the light off when the oven is not

in use or during a clean cycle. If your

oven light is left on for an extended

period of time, the oven will be warm

when the door is opened due to the

heat generated from the oven light

bulb.

The oven vent is located under the

right rear element. This area could

become hot during oven use. It is

normal for steam to come out of

the vent and/or collect moisture

underneath when the oven is in use.

The vent is important for proper air

circulation. Never block this vent.

Oven Vent

_j_ Location

Most recipes for baking have been

developed using high-fat products

such as butter or margarine (80% fat

by weight--the federal requirement

for products labeled "margarine").

You will get poor results if cakes, pies,

pastries, cookies, or candies are

made with low-fat spreads. Low-fat

spreads contain less fat and more

water. The high moisture content of

these spreads affects the texture and

flavor of favorite baked recipes. The

lower the fat content of a spread

product, the more noticeable these

differences become. To ensure best

results, use margarine, butter, or stick

spreads containing at least 70%

vegetable oil.

OPERATION

OvenCookingTips(cont.)

Baking results will be better if baking

pans are centered in the oven as

much as possible. If baking with

more than one pan, place the pans

so each has at least 1 to 1W' of air

space around it. If baking four cake

layers at the same time, place two

layers on rack 2 and two layers on

rack 4. Stagger pans on the rack so

one is not directly above the other.

The Oven Temperature Sensor

continuously senses and controls the

temperature inside the oven. To keep

a constant set temperature, the

elements will cycle (turn on and off

during cooking).

FLAT COOKIE SHEETS, without

sides, allow air to circulate all around

the cookies for even browning.

SHINY PANS reflect heat and are

perfect for cakes and quick breads

that need a light brown crust.

GLASS, DARK NON=STICK,

OR DARKENED=BY=AGE

BAKEWARE absorbs heat and can

be used for yeast breads, pie crust, or

foods that need a brown crust. The

oven temperature should be reduced

by 25°F.

OPERATION

OvenCookingTips(cont.)

The oven racks are designed with

stops, a convenience as well as a

safety precaution. The guides have a

bump to prevent the racks from tilting

when they are pulled out of the oven.

This design allows the racks to be

inserted in only one way.

Bump I_

Your oven has six (6) rack positions.

The top position is only a guide. It

cannot be used as a rack position.

Guides

You may feel that your new oven

cooks differently than the oven it

replaced. We recommend that you

use your new oven a few weeks to

become more familiar with it, following

the times given in your recipes as a

guide. If you feel your oven is too

hot or too cool for your cooking

preference, see Do-k-Yourself

Adjustment in the back of this manual

to make the adjustment.

NOTE: On some models the Oven

Control Knob must be pushed in

before turning.

Your oven control has a selector

knob for setting Bake, Broil, or Clean.

Simply turn the knob to the bake

temperature setting you want to use

or to BROIL or CLEAN.

Always place oven racks in the

proper position while oven is cool.

CAUTION: When you are using the

rack in the lowest position (1), you will

need to use caution when pulling the

rack out. We recommend that you pull

the rack out several inches and then,

using two potholders, pull the rack out

by holding the sides of it. The rack is

low and you could be burned if you

place your hand in the middle of the

rack and pull all the way out. Be very

careful not to burn your hand on the

door when using a rack in the lowest

position (1).

OFF

The Indicator Lights:

• PREHEATED indicator light - turns

on and stays on when oven has

reached selected temperature.

• OVEN ON indicator light - turns on

and stays on when a Bake, Broil, or

Clean function has been chosen.

• CLEAN indicator light - turns on

and stays on for self-clean. If the

CLEAN indicator light flashes,

you should check for one of the

following:

1, The latch handle is locked during

a baking function.

2, The latch handle is not locked

12" during a self-clean function.

OPERATION

Broiling

Broiling is cooking by direct heat from

the upper element. The oven door

should remain opened to the broil

stop position during broiling.

It is not necessary to preheat the oven

when broiling. Use the broiler pan and

grid that came with your range. Both

are designed for proper drainage of

fat and liquids.

.If foi! is used, it must be

molded tightly to the grid

and slits cut into the foi!

to match those of the grid. This

allows fats and liquids to drain

into the broiler pan, preventing

fire and excessive smoke.

Always remove the

pan and grid from S_

the oven. Storing

or forgetting a

soiled broiler pan

in the oven is a potential smoke

or fire hazard.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture

recommends to cook meat and

poultry thoroughly--meat to at least

an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F

and poultry to at least an INTERNAL

temperature of 180°F. Cooking to

these temperatures usually protects

against food-borne illness.

The closer you place foods to the

broil element, the faster foods brown

on the outside yet remain red to pink

in the center.

Moving meats away from the element

will allow the meat to cook to the

center while browning on the outside.

Using this positioning, cook side 1 at

least 2 minutes longer than side 2. If

your oven is connected to 208 volts,

oven racks, utensils, and any foil

that may be in the oven.

2. Soil on the front frame and outside

need to be cleaned by hand.

cleansers such as Soft Scrub ®to

remove any soil. Rinse well with clean

water and dry.

3. Wipe up any heavy spillovers on

the oven bottom.

4. Do not clean the gasket. The

fiberglass material of the oven

door gasket cannot withstand

abrasion. It is essential for the

gasket to remain intact. If you

notice it becoming worn or frayed,

it should be replaced.

The gasket is designed to have a

5"-6" gap at the bottom of the door.

This allows for proper air circulation.

Door Panel Gasket

Door Liner

It is normal for your oven door to give

the appearance of not having a good

seal against the range. This is due to

the gasket. The location of the gasket

on the door maintains a good seal

and prevents any heat loss.

r .....................................

_ tensils should never be

left in the oven during a

self-clean cycle.

The oven racks may be cleaned

during the self-clean cycle, but

will lose their luster and become

hard to slide. If you choose

to leave them in during the

cycle, wiping them down with

vegetable oil after the cycle will

help them slide easier.

For the first clean cycle, vent the

room with an opened window or

hood vent. This will reduce the

odor produced when heating

new parts.

If the CLEAN indicator flashes, the

door is not closed completely.

Simply push the handle to the lock

position.

4. The clean cycle lasts 4 hours

and 20 minutes--this includes a

cool-down time. You may change

this to any time from 3 hours to 5

hours and 59 minutes by touching

the HOUR/MIN UP and/or DOWN

arrow pads.

When the door locks, CLEAN

and OVEN ON indicator lights

will glow. The oven temperature

must drop below the locking

temperature before the door can

be opened. The CLEAN and

OVEN ON indicators will blink at

the end of the cycle.

Turn the OVEN CONTROL KNOB to

the OFF position. Wait (approx. 1

hour) before attempting to open the

door. The indicator light will not blink if

the cycle is stopped.

After the cycle, you may notice some

white ash in the oven. Just wipe it up

with a damp cloth or sponge.

If white spots remain, scrub them

with a soap-filled steel-wool pad. Be

sure to rinse thoroughly. These are

usually deposits of salt that cannot be

removed during the cycle.

If for any reason you are not

satisfied with the cleaning

results, just repeat the cycle.

CAREAND CLEANING

Removable Parts

(on some models)

Some models have a cooktop that

can be lifted up for easier cleaning.

The entire cooktop may be lifted up

and supported in the up position.

The surface units do not need to be

removed; however, you may remove

one to make raising the cooktop

easier. There are two side supports

that lock into position when the

cooktop is lifted up.

Be sure all surface units are turned off

before raising the cooktop.

After cleaning under the cooktop with

hot, mild soapy water and a clean

cloth, lower the cooktop. Be careful

not to pinch your fingers.

To lower the cooktop, push the rods

back and gently lower the cooktop

until it rests in place.

"DO-IT-YOURSELF"

TEMPERATURE

ADJUSTMENT

You may feel that your new oven

cooks differently than the oven it

replaced. We recommend that you

use your new oven 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

(burning foods) or not hot enough

(foods are undercooked), you can

adjust the temperature yourself. The

appearance and texture of foods is a

better indicator of oven accuracy than

an oven thermometer. These

thermometers can vary by 20-40

degrees from the true temperature of

the oven. In addition, the oven door

must be opened to read these

thermometers. Opening the door will

change the temperature of the oven.

To decide how much to change

the temperature, set the oven

temperature 25 degrees higher

(if foods are undercooked) or

25 degrees lower (if foods are

burning) than the temperature in your

recipe, then bake. The results of this

"test" should give you an idea of how

much the temperature should be

changed.

1. Press and hold, at the same

time, the HOUR UP and DOWN

arrow pads until the display

shows a two-digit number.

2. Press the HOUR UP arrow pad to

increase the temperature up to

+35°F hotter.

Press the HOUR DOWN arrow

pad to decrease the temperature

down to -35°F cooler.

3. When this adjustment has been

made, the display will return to the

time of day.

This adjustment will remain in memory

until these steps are repeated and a

new temperature is selected. It will

remain in memory even after a power

failure.

This adjustment will not affect the Broil

or Clean temperatures.
