Convection Dehydrate (upper oven only)

This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits and vegetables.

•Prepare the food as recommended

•Arrange the food on drying racks. (Not included with the oven; Contact a local store handling speciality cooking utensils.)

•Set the appropriate "low" temperature and turn the convection fan on.

Convection Defrost (upper oven only)

•Place the frozen food on a baking sheet. •Set the temperature control "OFF".* •Turn the convection fan on.

*IMPORTANT - Do not turn the temperature control on. Turning the convection fan on will accelerate the natural defrosting of the food without the heat.

WARNING:

To avoid sickness and food waste, do not allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your oven must be kept clean and maintained properly.

Control Knobs

MAKE SURE ALL THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and warm water. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly onto stem.

Broiler Pan and Grid

Clean with detergent and hot water. For stubborn spots, use a soap-filled steel wool pad.

Oven Racks

Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap-filled steel wool pad. DO NOT CLEAN THE OVEN RACKS OR RACK SUPPORT USING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE. They could sustain damage due to the extreme heat of the Self-Clean cycle.

Oven Surfaces

Several different finishes have been used in your electric oven. Cleaning instructions for each surface are given below. Your oven features a Self- Clean cycle for the oven interior. See pages 33 through 35 for complete instructions.

NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.

meat Probe

The meat probe may be cleaned with soap and water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.

•Do not immerse the meat probe in water. •Do not store the probe in the oven.

Stainless Steel Parts

All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. Do not permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.

Brass Parts

CAUTION: All special ordered brass parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT USE BRASS CLEANERS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON ANY BRASS PARTS. All brass body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water. When hot soapy water will not do the job, use every day household cleaners that are not abrasive.
