-~fore Using Your Oven

1.Look at the controls. Be sure you understand

how to set them properly. Read over the directions for the Oven Controls so you understand how to use them.

2.Check the inside of the oven. Look at the shelves. Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.

3.Read over the information and tips that follow.

4.Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new oven.

NOTE: You may notice a “burning” or “oily” smell the first few times you turn your oven on. This is normal in a new oven and will disappear in a short time. To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of 3 hours. See the Operating the Self- Cleaning Oven section.

Oven Shelves

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

When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the “stop” position. Place the cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the o~en. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

-remove the shelf from the oven, pull it forward to stop-locks and lift the front of the shelf. Be certain

that the shelf is cool before touching it.

To replace the shelf in the oven, tilt the shelf up at the front and slide the curved extension of the shelf under the stop-locks on the shelf supports. Then slide the shelf all the way into the oven.

Offset Shelf

To remove the shelf, pull it forward to the stop-locks and lift the front of the shelf.

The offset shelf provides more cooking space between itself and the shelf above it. This allows more flexibility when placing foods in the oven. See the M–ulti-Shelf Baking section.

offset shelf can be placed at u, ,Y shelf position.

To replace the shelf, tilt the shelf up at the front and slide the curved extension of the shelf under the stop-locks on the shelf supports. Then slide the shelf all the way into the oven.
