SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE WARNING
Do not repair or replace any part of the California Residents: for cancer and re-
appliance unless specifically recommend- productive harm information, visit
ed in the manuals. All other servicing www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
should be done only by a qualified tech-
nician. This reduces the risk of personal
injury and damage to the appliance.
Always contact your dealer, distributor,
service agent, or manufacturer about
problems or conditions you do not under-
stand.
Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified
technician and an authorized repair ser-
vice. Know how to disconnect the power
to the appliance at the circuit breaker or
fuse box in case of an emergency.
Remove the oven door from any unused
oven if it is to be stored or discarded.
Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with
a damp cloth. Doing so could cause the
bulb to break. Handle halogen lights
(if equipped) with paper towels or soft
gloves. Disconnect the appliance or shut
off the power to the appliance before re-
moving and replacing the bulb.

Food too dark Use the minimum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.

Cooking Tips
Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.

Situation Recommendation
Baking

Rack placement Follow the instructions in particular oven mode starting in “Setting Oven Con-
trols” on page 20.
Preheat Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and
breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.
Checking food Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may
reduce baking performance.
Bake or Convection Bake Convection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For
best performance, see.”Convection Bake” on page 24
Food placement Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air cir-
culation.
COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS 11
Material Recommendation
Broiling / Roasting
Broiling pan For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with an insert designed to drain
the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will
catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.
Convection Cooking
Convection attri- Convection cooking uses a fan to circulate hot air around the oven and food. It
butes browns food more evenly and reduces hot spots in the oven.
Convection saves time when using multiple racks or cooking several food items at
once.
Convection bake Reduce cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) from the recipe unless the recipe
is written for convection baking.
Preheat the oven for best results.

to set Cook Time after the oven is preheated.
When the programmed cook time ends:
• Off will appear in the display window
• an alert tone will sound
• the oven will turn off automatically
The Off message and an OKAY button will display
until OKAY is touched.

NOTE: The maximum cook time setting is 11 hours


and 59 minutes unless the oven is set for continu-
ous cooking.
To change the oven temperature or cook time
after baking has started:
• Touch + or - on either side of the set tempera-
ture.
• Touch TEMP to access the keypad.

Important notes:
• Always arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.
• For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the
food and help avoid spatter and reduce smoking.
• When broiling, always pull the oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.

Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as
possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty
of major cleaning later.

CAUTION
Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure
all controls are turned off and the appliance is

If ammonia or appliance cleaners are used, they
must be removed and the appliance must be
thoroughly rinsed before operating. Follow man-
ufacturer’s instructions and provide adequate
ventilation.

heating could damage the porcelain. Do not allow food spills with a
high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or
pie filling) to remain on porcelain surfaces. These spills may cause a
dull spot even after cleaning.
Self-cleaning oven interior Before setting a self-clean cycle, clean soils from the oven frame,
areas outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front
center of the oven bottom. See “Self Clean” on page 39.
Oven door Use mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water to clean the top, sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse

glass. Do not immerse the door in water. Do not spray or allow water
or cleaners to enter the door vents. Do not use oven cleaners, clean-
ing powders, or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside

lay the door flat with the inside of the door facing
down.

IMPORTANT
Special door care instructions - For safe, Figure 9: Door hinge location
temporary storage, lay the door flat with the
inside of the door facing down.
Most oven doors contain glass that can break.
Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other
object. Scratching, hitting, jarring, or stressing
the glass may weaken its structure, causing an
increased risk of breakage at a later time. Do not
close the oven door until all of the oven racks are
fully in place.

To remove the oven door:


1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with
floor (Figure 9).
2. Pull up the lock located on each hinge support Figure 10: Door hinge lock
toward front of the oven until the lock stops.
You may have to apply a little upward pressure
on the lock to pull it up (Figure 10).
3. Grasp the door by the sides, and close the door
until the door frame makes contact with the
unlocked hinges (Figure 11).
4. Pull the bottom of the door toward you while
rotating the top of the door toward the appli-
ance to completely disengage the hinge levers
(Figure 12).

To replace the oven door: Figure 11: Removal position


1. Firmly grasp both sides of oven door along the
door sides. Do not use the oven door handle
(Figure 12).
2. Hold the oven door at the same angle as the
removal position (Figure 11) Carefully insert
the hinge levers into the oven frame until you
feel the hinge levers are seated into the hinge
notches. The hinge arms must be fully seated
into the hinge notches before the oven door
can be fully opened.
3. Fully open the oven door, horizontal with floor
(Figure 9).
4. Push the door hinge locks up toward and into
the oven frame on both left and right oven door
hinges to the locked position (Figure 10).

Oven Baking
For best cooking results, preheat the oven before baking cookies, breads, cakes, pies, pastries, etc. There is no
need to preheat the oven for roasting meat or baking casseroles. The cooking times and temperatures needed to
bake a product may vary slightly from your previously owned appliance.
