Getting to Know Your Oven

Parts of the Oven

 

 

Control panel

Your oven’s control panel consists of keys and a display. Use the control panel to

 

A

 

 

 

control all the oven’s features (sometimes called modes).

BAir intake/Exhaust slots The oven draws air in through the intake slots to cool its internal parts. The air comes out through the exhaust slot at the bottom of the oven. Do not block or cover the air intake or exhaust slots.

CMeat probe connector When you use the meat probe, insert the skewer into the meat and plug the other end into this connector. See the Using the Meat Probe section on page 16 for proper operation. On double ovens, only the upper oven is equipped with a meat probe connector.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oven light

There is an oven light inside the oven chamber so that you can easily see the food

inside. Press the light key on the control panel to turn it on. The bulb is 12 volt,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

20 Watt, halogen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rack supports

There are six sets of rack supports inside the oven chamber. They support the

 

E

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

adjustable oven racks. They are numbered from the bottom up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Door gasket

The door gasket prevents heat from escaping when the door is closed.

 

F

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Self clean latch

The self clean latch automatically locks the oven door during the self clean cycle.

 

G

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The door latches for your safety. There are very high temperatures inside the oven

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

during the self clean cycle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Broil element

The broil element is located on the ceiling of the oven chamber. It is the source of

 

H

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

top heat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Convection fan*

Located behind the convection filter. The convection fan blows heated air into the

 

J

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

oven chamber during the convection cooking process.

KConvection element* Located behind the convection filter. The convection element heats the air that is blown into the oven chamber by the convection fan during the convection cooking process.

 

 

 

Convection filter*

The convection filter covers the convection fan and element. It helps prevent the

 

L

 

 

 

 

transfer of taste from one food to another when you are cooking a whole meal. It

 

 

 

 

also keeps the oven cleaner and covers the moving fan blades for safety purposes.

 

 

 

Oven rack

Single oven models come with a set of three oven racks. Double oven models come

 

M

 

 

 

 

 

with a total of six.

 

 

 

Bake element

Hidden below the floor of the oven chamber is the bake element. It is the source of

 

N

 

 

 

 

 

bottom heat.

*Double oven models are not equipped for convection cooking in the lower oven. Therefore, there is no convection fan, element or filter in the lower oven chamber on double ovens.
