Estate W10203464A manual Oven USE, Control Lock, Oven Temperature Control, Aluminum Foil

Control Lock

The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to avoid unintended use of the oven.

When the control is locked, only the CLOCK and TIMER pads will function.

To Lock/Unlock Control: Before locking, make sure the oven and Timer are off. Press and hold START/ENTER for 5 seconds. A single tone will sound, and “LOC” and “LOCK’D” (on some models) will appear on the display. “LOC” will also appear whenever any command pad is pressed while the control is locked.

Repeat to unlock. “LOC” and “LOCK’D” (on some models) will disappear from the display.

Oven Temperature Control

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door and element or burner cycling may give incorrect readings.

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed

amount. No minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:

1.Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds until the oven display shows the current calibration, for example “0.”

2.Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad(s) to increase or to decrease the temperature in 10°F (5°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 30°F (15°C) and -30°F (-15°C).

3.Press START/ENTER.

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well- ventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware.

■On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.

■For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.

■To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

RACKS

■Position racks before turning on the oven.

■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.

■Make sure racks are level.

For best performance, cook on one rack. Place the rack so the top of food will be centered in the oven. To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out.

BAKEWARE

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.
