USING YOUR OVEN

Before 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 oven interior. Look at the shelves. Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.

3.Read over information and tips that follow.

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

Oven Shelves

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

TO REMOVE the shelves from the oven, pull toward you, tilt front end upward and pull them oat.

TO REPLACE, place shelf on shelf support with

stop-loc”ks (curved extension under shelf) facing up toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up front and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past “stop” on the oven wall. Then lower the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.

Shelf Positions

The oven has four shelf supports identified in this illustration as

A (bottom), B, C and D (top).

Oven Light

Use the switch on the panel to turn the light on and off.

Adjusting Oven Thermostat

When cooking food for the first time in your new oven. use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from the factory setting and the differences in timing between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. Your oven has been set correctly at the factory and is more likely to be accurate than the oven which it replaced.

If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature 25”F. higher or lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this “test” should give you an idea of how much the temperature should be changed.

To Adjust Temperature:

1.Press BAKE pad.

2.Select an oven temperature between 500”F. and 550”F.

3.Immediately, before BAKE indicator stops flashing, press and hold the BAKE pad for about 4 seconds. The red display will change to the oven adjustment display.

4.The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35”F. hotter or (–) 35”F. cooler. Use the INCREASE or DECREASE pads to select the desired change in the red display.

5.When you have made the adjustment, press the CLEAWOFF pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect Broil or Clean temperatures. It will be remembered when power is removed.
