USING THE OVEN
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The oven has 7 rack positions for
various types of cooking.
To install a rack insert the curved
end of the rack into the desired
position and push all the way back.
To remove a rack pull out until the
rack stops, then tilt up and pull out.
CAUTION:
Always use potholders or
oven mitts when removing food or adjusting the
oven racks. Wait until the oven has completely
cooled if possible. Oven racks may be HOT and
may cause burns.
OVEN VENT
Your oven is vented though ducts at the center above the
burner grate. Do not block the oven vent when cooking to
allow for proper air flow. Do not touch vent openings or
nearby surfaces during the use of any cooking operation.
• DO NOT place plastic or
flammable items on the
cooktop—they may melt or ignite
if left too close to the vent.
• DO NOT place closed containers
on the cooktop. The pressure in
closed containers may increase,
which may cause them to burst.
• Metal items will become very hot
if they are left on the cooktop, and
could cause burns.
• Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become
hot if left too close to the vent.

If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs, the oven
burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until power is
A
restored. Once power is restored you will need to restart
the oven or broil function.
The oven has 7 rack
positions.
OVEN LIGHT
NOTE :
• The oven light can not be turned on during a self clean
cycle. The oven light can not be turned on until the oven
temperature has cooled below 500˚F(260˚C) after a self
clean cycle is complete.
OVEN MOISTURE
As your oven heats up, the temperature increase 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.
Plastic items on the
ALUMINUM FOIL
cooktop may melt if left
too close to the vent.
NEVER cover the oven bottom with aluminum foil.
To use aluminum foil to catch a spillover, instead place a
small sheet of foil on a lower rack several inches below
the food.
NEVER entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will
disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
The oven light automatically turns ON when
the door is opened. The oven light may also
be manually turned ON or OFF by pressing
the "OVEN LIGHT" pad.
