USING YOUR OVEN

(continued)

Oven Light

The light comes on automatically when the oven door is opened. Use the switch on the panel to turn the light on and off.

Oven Moisture

As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

Oven Vent

You:” o~.ren is vented through ducts

.t{ the reiw of the range. Do not block these ducts when cooking in

the oven--it is important that tfie IIOW of hot air from the oven and

t’resh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation— they may become hot.

Vent openings and nearby surfa.ees may become hot. Do not touch them.

Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—the~ may melt if left too clo;e to the vent.

Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may imite flammable items and will”in&ease pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.

Adjusting Oven Thermostat

When cooking food for the first time in your new oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from the factory setting, and differences in timing between an old al)d a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. Your new oven has been set correctly at the factory and is more likely to be accurate than the oven it replaced.

If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the thermostat, set the oven temperature 25”F. higher [~1 iower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this “test” should give you an idea of how much the thermostat should be changed.

To adjust thermostat:

1.Press BAKE pad.

2.Select an oven temperature between 500”F. and 550°F.

3.Immediately, before BAKE indicator stops flashing, press and hold the BAKE pad for about

4 seconds. The red display will change to the oven adjustment display.

4.The oven temperature can be adjusted up to

(+) 35”F. hotter or (-) 35°F. cooler. Use the INCREASE or DECREASE pads to select the desired change in the red display.

5.When you have made the adjustment, press the CLEAIUOFF pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect Broil or Clean temperatures. It will be remembered when power

is removed.
