Control Lock
The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent unintended use of the oven(s).
When the control is locked, only the CLOCK, TIMER SET, TIMER OFF, and OVEN LIGHT pads will function.
The Control Lock is preset unlocked, but can be locked.
To Lock/Unlock Control: Before locking, make sure the oven, Timer and Timed Cooking (COOK TIME on some models) are off. Press and hold START for 5 seconds, or until a single tone sounds, “LOC” and a picture of a lock appear on the display. Repeat to unlock and remove “LOC” from display.
Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door and element or burner cycling may give incorrect readings.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well- ventilated room.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware.
■On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.
■Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.
■To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.
RACKS
NOTES:
■Position racks before turning on the oven.
■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
■Make sure racks are level.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.
