USING YOUR OVEN

USING YOUR OVEN

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.

Electric Ignition

The oven burner and broil burner are lighted by electric ignition.

To light either burner, turn the OVEN SET knob to the desired oven operation and the OVEN TEMP knob to the desired temperature. The burner should ignite within 30-90 seconds.

After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven burner cycles—off completely, then on with a full flame—to keep the oven temperature controlled.

Power Outage

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 failure. 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.

Oven Light

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

Oven Moisture

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.
