This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or Thissafety is themessages safety alertwillsymbol. "WARNING.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNUNG: To reduce the risk of fire, ebctrbaI shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow basic precautions, including the following: w WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTPTIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERD4 SLIDE RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTPTIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTPTIP BRACKET.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. For self-cleaning ranges - • Placement of Oven Racks - Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven. • DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns.

Do not use it to heat cold foods. One hour is the recommended maximum time to maintain food quality.
Hot Surface Indicator Light The hot surface indicator light will glow as long as any surface cooking area is too hot to touch, even after the surface cooking area(s) is turned off. SETTING RECOMMENDED USE SIMMER Switch (on some models) • Precise simmer control. WARM ZONE Element Switch • Keep cooked foods warm.
Simmer POWER ON Lights The Simmer feature is an adjustable heat setting for more precise simmering. It is the right front (and left rear on some models) surface cooking areas or elements.

The START pad begins any oven function except the Timer, Control Lock and Sabbath Mode. If not pressed within 5 seconds after pressing a pad, "START?" will appear on the oven display as a reminder. If not pressed within 5 minutes after pressing a pad, the oven display will return to inactive mode (blank) and the programmed function will be canceled. The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent unintended use of the oven. The Control Lock is preset unlocked, but can be locked.
The Timer can be set in minutes and seconds or hours and minutes and counts down the set time. NOTE: The Timer does not start or stop the oven. 1. Press TIMER SET/START. The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow manufacturer's recommendations and use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide. Press again to switch from MIN/SEC and HR/MIN. If no action is taken after 4 minutes, the display will return to the time of day mode. 2. 3.
Press START. The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display throughout cooking. "Lo °'' will appear as the probe temperature until the internal temperature of the food reaches 130°F (54°C). Then the display will show the temperature increasing in 5°F increments. When the set probe temperature is reached, the oven will shut off automatically and "End" will appear on the oven display. If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder tones will sound every minute.
BAKEWARE IMPORTANT: Do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish. RACKS NOTES: • Position racks before turning the oven on. • Do not position racks with bakeware on them. • Make sure racks are level. To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 1" (2.5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide. NUMBER OF PAN(S) POSITION ON RACK 1 Center of rack.
The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating casseroles. During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature. If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the broil element will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off in 30 seconds to 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed. To Bake or Roast: 2.
To Use: Before using convection temperature conversion for BAKED GOODS and OTHER FOODS, allow the oven to preheat before placing food in the oven. In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads. 1.
CONVECTION Food/Rack Position Convection roasting can be used for roasting meats and poultry, or for baking yeast breads and loaf cakes using a single rack. During convection roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air. If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the broil element and convection fan will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off within 2 minutes.
PAD/OVEN SETTING OVEN TEMP. COOK TIME or PROBE TEMP. FOOD or MEAL During convection broiling, the broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air. 5 Convection Bake 425°F (218°C) 20 min. Baked Salmon Steaks, Roasted Vegetable Wedges, Biscuits The temperature is preset at 500°F (260°C), but can be changed to a different temperature.
5. Press OPTIONS, and then press number pad 7. "SABBATH MODE" will appear on the display. The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath. 6. When the stop time is reached, the oven will automatically turn off. The oven control will remain Sabbath Mode compliant until the OFF button is pressed.
2. Press START. Let the dough rise until nearly doubled in size, checking after 20-25 minutes. Proofing time may vary depending on dough type and quantity. 3. When the stop time is reached, the oven will shut off automatically, and end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder tones will sound every minute. 7. Press OFF to stop reminder tones or open the oven door. Press OFF when finished proofing. Before pan(s) spray.
Warming Drawer Temperature Chart Different foods require different settings in order to maintain the ideal serving temperature. Use the following chart as a guide.
Prepare Cooktop and Storage Drawer: • Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may melt. • Remove all items from the storage drawer. How the Cycle Works IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds. The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, to a powdery ash.
CERAMIC CONTROL GLASS (on some models) PANEL Do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover or ammonia because damage may occur. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels. Damage may occur. Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly to prevent streaking and staining.
S t o _i_i:,_:!,i_ i!i!i!i?_i!: iiiiii:i_ _:_w_;_i!:!_ i?_ To Replace: 1. Insert both hanger arms into the door. The storage drawer can be removed. Before removing, make sure drawer is cool and empty. To Remove: 1. Pull drawer straight out to the first stop. 2. Lift up the back of the drawer and pull out. To Replace: 1. Fit the ends of the drawer rails into the guides in the cavity. 2. Slide the drawer closed. For normal range use, it is not suggested to remove the oven door.
TROUBLESHOOTING Try the solutions suggested here first in order to avoid the cost of an unnecessary service call. On some models, does the cooling fan run during BAKE, BROIL or CLEAN? It is normal for the fan to automatically run when the oven is in use. This helps cool the electronic control. Nothing will operate • Is the power supply cord unplugged? Plug into a greunded outlet. • Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the circuit.
