USING YOUR OmN

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 oven.

Oven Light

The light comes on when the oven door is opened or when the control panel light switch is turned on.

Oven Vent

When the oven is on, heated air moves through a vent above the door or between door and air grille.

The vent area could get hot during oven use.

The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and good baking results. Do not block this vent.

Oven Fan

This unit is equipped with a fan which automatically turns on whenever the oven is set for cooking or cleaning. The fan will automatically turn off when the unit has cooled.

Oven Shelves

The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely out of the oven and will not tilt when you are removing food from them 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 oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.

To remove a shelf from the oven, pull it toward you, tilt front end upward and pull shelf out.

To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with the stop-locks (curved extension of shel~ facing up and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the 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.
