Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information on the followingpages, and keep this book handy.

The controls for your oven are marked OVEN SET and

OVEN TEMP.

BA~–Use this setting for all normal oven operations—for example, for cookingroastsor casseroles. Only the bottom oven burner operatesduring baking.

BROI&Use this setting for broiling. Only the top (broil) burner will operate.

TmED BA-Use this setting to turn the ovenon and off at specified times when you want cookingto start and stop. See AutomaticOven T~meron next page.

CLEAN—Use this setting for the self-cleaningfinction only.

OFF—Shuts off power to the oven controls. Oven will not operate. The OVEN SET and OVEN TEMP controls should be turned to OFF whenever the ovenis not in use.

The OVENTEMP controi maintains the temperature you set for normal ovenoperation as well as for broiling.

Yor normal oven operation, push in and turn the knob to the desired temperature which is marked in 25° increments.It will normally take 30 to 60 seconds before the flame comes on.

After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven burner cycles —offcompletely, then on with a full flame-to keep the oven temperature controlled.

Stiinless Steel: This metal alone has poor heating properties, and is usually combined with copper, aluminum or other metals for improved heat distribution. Combination metal ski~letsusually work satisfactorily if they are used with medium heat as the man~~facturerrecommends.
