Getting to Know Your Oven
Before Getting Started, Get Familiar With Your Oven
• Control panel: Your oven’s control panel consists of keys and a display. You
use the control panel to control all the oven’s features (sometimes called
modes).
• Oven racks: Your oven comes with three adjustable oven racks. It comes
with six if you have a double oven.
• Rack supports: There are six sets of rack supports inside each oven cham-
ber. They support the adjustable oven racks.
• Meat probe connector: When you use the meat probe, insert the skewer
into the meat and plug the other end into this connector. See the Meat
Probe section on page 25 for proper operation.
• Oven lights: There are two oven lights inside the oven chamber so that you
can easily see the food inside the oven when the door is open and through
the oven window when the door is closed. The lights come on automatically
when you open the oven door or you may touch the light key on the control
panel to keep the lights on. The bulbs are 12 volt, 10 watt, halogen.
• Bake elements: Hidden below the glass panel on the oor of the oven
chamber are the bake elements. They are the source of bottom heat.
• Broil elements: Hidden above the glass panel in the roof of the oven cham-
ber are the broil elements. They are the source of top heat.
• Convection fan: The convection fan blows hot air into the oven chamber
during the convection cooking process. The convection lter covers it.
• Convection element: The convection element creates the hot air that is
blown into the oven chamber by the convection fan during the convection
cooking process. The convection lter covers it.
• Convection lter: The convection lter covers the convection fan. It helps
prevent the transfer of taste from one food to another when you are cook-
ing a whole meal. It also keeps the oven cleaner, especially when roasting or
broiling. In addition, it covers the moving fan blades for safety purposes.
• Self-clean latch: The self-clean latch automatically locks the oven door
during the self-clean cycle. The door latches for your safety. There are very
high temperatures inside the oven during the self-clean cycle.
• Door gasket: The door gasket prevents heat from escaping when the door
is closed.
