OVEN HEATING MODES DEFINED Your Oven features cooking modes which are used in most forms of in-house cooking. PRE-HEAT Most recipes call for an oven to be heated to a particular temperature prior to the start of cooking. This heating of the oven is the Pre-Heat mode and uses high intensity heat from the top, bottom, and rear of the oven to quickly and evenly heat the oven. The Convection Fan is also used during Pre-Heat to rapidly distribute the heat throughout the oven.
OVEN HEATING MODES DEFINED (continued) SELF CLEAN Self Clean is a special heating function that raises the oven temperature to levels that will burn most food byproducts to ash. It is a 3 hour heating cycle but due to the extreme heat generated, the oven door is automatically locked when the cycle is started.
POSITIONING OVEN RACKS • Your oven comes with Capital Roller Racks which effortlessly move in and out of the oven on bearing rollers. • To completely remove a rack from the oven, before the oven is hot, grasp the rack on both the right and left sides and lift the rack up while allowing the roller brackets to rotate downward. • This will release the rack from the retaining grooves in the oven side wall.
WHILE THE OVEN IS RUNNING • • • When a cooking mode is started the PRE icon will appear in the clock display. This indicates the oven is Pre-Heating. o BROIL mode does not use a Pre-Heat cycle. o The displayed temperature will increase until the set temperature is reached. o When the set temperature is reached the oven will sound a beep tone and the PRE icon will turn off. o Once the set temperature has been reached it will be displayed continuously.
SECURING THE OVEN CONTROL • The oven control can be locked into a Secure mode to prevent accidentally turning the oven by children or when cleaning. • The Secure mode will disable all buttons and switches except the CANCEL buttons. • To Secure the oven control, press and hold the CANCEL button (either button on a double oven) for 5 seconds. • The oven control will beep and the display will show OFF in the temperature readout areas of the display.
SETTING TIMERS • The Timers are timers only and do not affect oven functions. • Your oven has two independent countdown timers: TIMER 1 and TIMER 2. • The Timers may each be set from 5 seconds to 11 hours 50 minutes. • To set, press either TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 buttons (they each have the same functions). • Rotate the TIMER/TEMP dial clockwise to increase the timer setting. • Press the START button to begin the timer countdown.

They may melt, burn or cause permanent damage to the oven. • WARNING: Do not touch the outer surfaces of the oven during the Self-Clean cycle as the oven may be hot.
CONVECTION (Upper and Lower Oven on Double) • The CONVECTION button turns the oven Convection Fan on during a cooking mode providing an additional four modes of cooking. • CONVECTION used in combination with BAKE, DELICATE, BAKE, BROIL, or ROAST uses the same heat sources as the standard set mode but evenly moves the heated air throughout the oven. • When cooking is complete and a mode is cancelled, the CONVECTION fan will automatically turn off.
• WARNING: • The ROTISSERIE button turns the Rotisserie motor ON and OFF when Rotisserie cooking. • The ROTISSERIE button illuminates when ON. • The ROTISSERIE button can be turned on and off at any time except when Self Clean is selected. • Periodically check the food on the Rotisserie to make sure it does not contact oven walls or the drip pan. Food may become loose during cooking and may require repositioning of the Rotisserie forks or securing the food with cooking string.
• Press the MOIST button to allow the oven to add water into the oven cavity. When activated, the MOIST button will be illuminated. o Only use the MOIST feature with oven settings above 250° F. If the oven temperature is too low the water will not evaporate and may drip onto the oven bottom. • The MOIST mode will automatically turn Off when the cooking mode is cancelled or can be manually turned Off at any time by pressing the MOIST button. When turned Off, the MOIST button light will turn Off.
PROBE (Upper and Lower Oven on Double) PROBE allows the oven to monitor the food temperature as it cooks and stops cooking when the food is done. The Meat Probe is inserted into the food to monitor the internal temperature. When the food is done, the cooking mode will change to HOLD mode for two hours. • The PROBE function is used in conjunction with a cooking mode set to the recipe cooking temperature.
DELAY COOK • Your oven can be set to start cooking at a desired time by presetting a cooking mode, temperature, and setting a start time in DELAY COOK. • WARNING: When using DELAY COOK, always maintain food safe habits and be extremely careful of access to the oven by children or adults who may be injured or cause damage by a live oven. • WARNING: Do not use DELAY COOK for foods subject to spoiling (dairy products, eggs, uncooked poultry, etc.
TIMED COOK • Your oven can be set to end cooking after a set time has passed by using the TIMED COOK function. • To set TIMED COOK a cooking mode must be active (or set with DELAY COOK). • Press the TIMED COOK button to enter the duration time screen. • Use the TIME/TEMP dial to set the duration in minutes, or hours and minutes. • Press START to activate the TIMED COOK function.
TIPS General • Always center your cookware within the oven from front to back and side to side to ensure even heating. • Darker containers will absorb more heat and will provide a darker or crisper crust while lighter pans and vessels will reflect more heat and provide a more uniform heat. • Use low sided or flat cooking vessels, such as cookie sheets, when cooking with convection and even heat is desired around the food.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE WARNING: Do not touch the interior surfaces of the oven during use. After use, make sure these surfaces have had sufficient time to cool before touching them. WARNING: Do not clean the oven door gaskets. The door gaskets are essential for a good seal of the oven. Care is to be taken during cleaning to prevent rubbing, damaging, or moving the gasket from its installed position.
CLEANING CHART: • Always start by selecting the mildest cleaner according to the kind of soil and the material soiled. To prevent marring the stainless steel finish, always apply the cleaners in the direction of the grain. Rinse and dry immediately to avoid water marks. • Use clean applicators, i.e. soft cloths, sponges, or paper towels for cleaning and scouring. • The use of brand names in the char is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner. This does not constitute an endorsement.
