Oven Vents

The oven is vented tiough duct openings at the rear of the cooktop. See the Features section. Do not block the opening when cooking in the oven—it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted.

The vent openings and n-rby surfaces may become hot during baking and brofing. Do not touch them.

Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop they may meit if left too close to the vent.

Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent.

Meti items til become very hot if they are left on the cooktop and codd ause burns.

Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to burst.

Do Zt Yourse~—Adjmt the Oven Themosbt

ffyou don’t think the oven is heating at the right temperature when you are baking or roasting, you m reset the thermostat yourseM.

When cooking food for the f~st 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 correctiy at the factory and is more likely to be accurate than the oven which it replaced.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in the grocery store, to check the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers can vary by 2M0 degrees.

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.

Note to which mmk the pointer is pointing.

To make an adjustment carefully loosen (approximately one turn), but do not completely remove the two screws that hold the skin to the knob. Hold the knob blade in one hand and the outer skirt in the other hand.

To raise the oven temperature, move the pointer in the direction of the arrow for MSE. To lower the temperature, move the pointer in the direction of arrow for LOWER. Each mark WW change the oven temperature approximately 25°F.

We suggest that you make tie adjustment one mark from the original setting and check oven performance before making any additiond adjustments.

After the adjustment is made, press skirt and knob together and retighten screws so they are snug, but be careful not to overtighten. Re-instil knob on range and check performance.

NO~: -ran adjustment has been made, the OFF and BROL positions wi~ not tie up with the indicator mark on the control panel as they previously did. This condition is normal and wi~ not create a problem.
