Before Using Your Oven

Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly. Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.

Power Outage —Electric Ignition

CAUTION: DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE ELECTRIC IGNITION OVEN DURING AN ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE. The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a power fadure. Gas will not flow unless the glow bar is hot.

If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This is because the flow of gas is automatically stopped and will not resume when power is restored until the glow bar has reached operating temperature.

Power Outage —Stinding Pilot I

An electrical power failure will not affect the standing oven pilot.

Oven Control

Your oven is controlled by a single OVEN CONTROL knob.

It will normally take 30-90 seconds before the flame comes on. After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven burner cycles+ff completely, then on with a full flame-to maintain the selected temperature.

Oven Moisture Oven Light (on some models)

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.

Use the switch on the lower control panel to turn the light on or off.
