Using the oven.

The OVEN TEMP knob is located on the control panel on the front of the range.

Safety

Oven Temperature Control

To use the oven, simply turn the knob to the desired cooking temperatures, which are marked in 25°F. increments on the dial. OVEN TEMP maintains the temperature you set, from WM (170°F.) to BROIL (550°F.).

The Oven Cycling Light glows until the oven reaches your selected temperature, then goes off and on with the oven unit(s) during cooking.

Instructions Operating

Bump

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely out of the oven and will not tilt when you are removing food from them or placing food on them.

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove the shelves from the oven, pull them toward you, tilt front end upward and pull them out.

To replace, place shelf on shelf support with stop-locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up and toward back of oven. Tilt up front and push shelf toward back of oven until it goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower front of shelf and push it all the way back.

Instructions Care and Cleaning

Installation Instructions Troubleshooting

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
