IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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 cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. • The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms, except as suggested in this guide. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. • Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • Children in walkers, or children crawling, can be attracted to the round oven door handle and may grab and open the oven door. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a child, or severe burns if the oven is in use and hot. • Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury. • Place the oven shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool.

Convection Cooking Wall Oven What is convection cooking? In a convection oven, a fan circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time with convection heat. Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes. • Food is heated faster in a convection oven.

NOTE: On double oven models, you will not be able to set a timed cooking or cleaning function in both ovens at the same time.

Timed Cooking Wall Oven How to set the oven for a delayed start and automatic stop NOTE: On double oven models, you will not be able to set a timed cooking or cleaning function in both ovens at the same time. You can set the oven to delay the start of cooking, cook for a selected length of time and turn off automatically. NOTE: Before beginning make sure the clock shows the correct time of day. To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct position before you turn the oven on.
Adjust the Oven Thermostat Wall Oven 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. We do not recommend the use of thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
Self-Cleaning Oven Wall Oven Before a clean cycle The oven must be completely cool in order to set the self-clean cycle. We recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle. Clean soil from the frame around the oven door and outside the door gasket. These areas must be cleaned by hand. Do not clean the door gasket by hand as this could damage it. Wipe up excess grease and other food spills with a damp cloth.
How to delay the start of cleaning NOTE: On double oven models, you will not be able to set a timed cooking or cleaning function in both ovens at the same time. You can set the oven to delay the start of cleaning, clean for a selected length of time and turn off automatically. NOTE: Before beginning make sure the clock shows the correct time of day. 1 Turn the mode selector knob to TIMED. 2 Turn the oven control knob to SELF CLEAN. 3 Turn the temperature control knob to CLEAN.

Baking Tips Wall Oven Pan placement Preheating 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 11⁄2″ space between pans as well as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides. Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Care and Cleaning Wall Oven Control panel and knobs Clean up spatters with a damp cloth. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasives of any kind on the control panel. The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak. Oven heating elements Do not clean the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the element is heated.
Care and Cleaning Wall Oven Oven lights Each oven is equipped with two lights located on the back wall of the oven. The lights come on when the door is opened or when the oven is in a cooking cycle. The oven lights do not come on during self-cleaning. Bulb socket Lens Lens frame Each light assembly consists of a removable lens frame, a removable lens, a light bulb and a bulb socket that is fixed in place.
Inside of the door: • Do not rub or clean the door gasket— the fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good baking results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the oven, you should have it replaced. Outside of the door: Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. Clean with hot soapy water.
