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 Ven@

The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See Features section. Do not block these openings when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

●The vent openings and

nearby surfaces may ; ‘“’,; ~ ‘ .-.’ ,.. ~+

become hot. Do not

they may melt if left too close to the vent.

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

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

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

Suflace Light

Use the switch on the upper control panel to turn the surface light on and off.

Oven Light

The oven light comes on automatically when the door is opened. Some models have a switch on the lower control panel that allows you to turn the light on or off when the door is closed.

Adjusting Oven Themostat

When cooking a 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 and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. You may be inclined to think that the new oven is not performing correctly; however, 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 or lower 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 the 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 thermostat 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 CLEAWOFF 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.
