IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
• The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor
of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposure to such substances.
• The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning
ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure
can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using your appliance, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this guide.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the wall oven.
• Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire
or flame or use a multi-purpose dry chemical
or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a
cabinet that is firmly attached to the house
structure. Never allow anyone to climb, sit,
stand or hang on the oven door.
Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the oven off or by using a multi-
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
• Have the installer show you the location of the
circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottoms, except as suggested in this guide.
Improper installation of aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part
of your wall oven unless it is specifically
recommended in this guide. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an
internal temperature of at least 170°F. This
assures that, in the remote possibility that
trichina may be present in the meat, it will be
killed and the meat will be safe to eat.
• Teach children not to play with the controls or
any other part of the oven.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the oven.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance from
your oven.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area
where an appliance is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the appliance.
• Do not store flammable materials in the oven.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your oven.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings, curtains
or drapes a safe distance from your oven.

interior surface of the oven. These surfaces
may be hot enough to burn even though they
are dark in color. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact, any interior area of the
oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers. If
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent
openings and surfaces near the openings,
crevices around the oven door, the edges of
the door window and metal trim parts above

overheated, they can catch on fire.
• Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored
in an oven can ignite.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use.
Remember: The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door. They could damage the oven or
cause severe personal injury.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED
IN CABINETS ABOVE A WALL OVEN—
CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE OVEN TO
REACH ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY
INJURED.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders touch oven
heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored over the oven.
Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with oven heating elements
and may cause severe burns.
• Stand away from the oven when opening the
oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• After broiling, always take the broiler pan out of
the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in the
broiler pan can catch fire the next time you use
the pan.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or
near your oven.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holder contact
the heating elements.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container could
burst, causing an injury.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is • Clean only parts listed in this Use and

Care Guide.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, grid and other cookware.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any
kind should be used in or around any part of the
oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage
the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle
is used.
• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.

Baking or Roasting
Wall Oven
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To
preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature.
Preheating is necessary for good results when
baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
Baking results will be better if baking pans are
centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans
should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the
pans so one is not directly above the other, and
leave approximately 1 ⁄2² between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.
Preheating
and pan
placement
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes.

As an added convenience for you when using your
new convection oven, we have provided three cookie
sheets.
We recommend that you use Convection Bake
for multi-shelf cooking. For two-shelf baking,
place the offset shelf in the bottom (A) shelf
position. Place the straight shelf in the third (C)
shelf position. Place the small cookie sheet on
the offset rack. Always use a cool cookie sheet.
Cookie
sheets
(on some models)
The two large ones are for use on the flat
shelves. The small cookie sheet is for use on the
offset shelf. The cookie sheets provide uniform
baking. They are dishwasher safe, durable and
will not warp or rust.
On double oven models, when baking on three
shelves, divide the oven into thirds by placing
the offset shelf in the third (C) shelf position
and straight shelves in the first (A) and fourth
(D) shelf position. See the Convection Baking
section.
Insulated cookie sheets, with an easy grip lip,
are made of two layers of aluminum with an
insulating layer of air for uniform baking.
Aluminum is an oven baking metal. It is not,
however, a non-stick surface. If your recipe
recommends greasing, spray lightly with a non-
stick vegetable coating; wipe off the excess. If
preferred, put a light film of shortening on the
cookie sheet. Cookies should cool at least 2
minutes before removing them from the sheet.
Your insulated cookie sheets can be used for
convection baking or regular baking. However,
if you choose not to use Convection Bake for
baking cookies and are baking on the insulated
cookie sheets, you may find that the
recommended baking time needs to be
increased 3 to 5 minutes.
You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler
pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold
the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just
like the grid.
Aluminum
foil
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result
in poor baking.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a
spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several
inches below the food.

Using the Probe
Wall Oven
NOTE: Double oven models have a probe in the upper
oven only.
Temperature
probe
Cable
Plug
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry,
internal food temperature is the best test for
doneness. The temperature probe takes the
guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to
the exact doneness you want.
Probe
Handles
Use of probes other than the one provided with
this product may result in damage to the probe.
The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at one end and a
plug at the other end that goes into the outlet in the oven.
Use the handles of the probe and plug when
inserting and removing them from the meat
and outlet.
• To avoid damaging your probe, do not use
tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
• To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food
is completely defrosted before inserting.
• To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the
probe from the outlet until the oven has
cooled.
• Never leave your probe inside the oven during
a self-cleaning cycle.
• Do not store the probe in the oven.
After preparing the meat and placing it on a
trivet or on the broiler pan grid, follow these
directions for proper probe placement.
Proper
placement
of the probe
1 Lay the probe on the outside of the meat
along the top or side and mark with your
finger where the edge of the meat comes to
on the probe. The point should rest in the
center of the thickest meaty part of the roast.
2 Insert the probe completely into the meat. It
should not touch the bone, fat or gristle.
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into
the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in ham
or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the
lowest large muscle or joint.
Insert the probe into the center of dishes such
as meat loaf or casseroles. When cooking fish,
insert the probe from just above the gill into the
meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg
of a whole turkey.

5 Press the BAKE pad.
6 Press the number pads to set the desired oven
temperature.
7 Press the START pad.
The display will flash if the probe is inserted into the
outlet and you have not set a probe temperature and
pressed the START pad.
When the oven starts to heat, the word LO will
be in the display.
After the internal temperature of the meat
reaches 100°F., the changing internal
temperature will be shown in the display.
8 When the internal temperature of the meat
reaches the number you have set, the probe
and the oven turn off and the oven control
signals. To stop the signal, press the
CLEAR/OFF pad. Use hot pads to remove
the probe from the food. Do not use tongs to
pull on it—they might damage it.
To change the oven temperature during the
Roast cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the
number pads to set the new temperature.
• If the probe is removed from the food before
the final temperature is reached, a tone will
sound and the display will flash until the probe
is removed from the oven.
• You can use the timer even though you cannot
use timed oven operations.
20
Using the Convection Oven
Wall Oven
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air
over, under and around the food.
Convection
fan
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods
are evenly cooked and browned—often in less
time with convection heat.
The convection fan shuts off when the oven door is
opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods
of time while using convection cooking or you may
shorten the life of the convection heating element.
(appearance may vary)
Heat comes from the heating element in the
rear of the oven. The convection fan circulates
the heated air evenly over and around the food.
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a
bake time of over 15 minutes.
• Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on multiple shelves.
Convection
baking
• Good for large quantities of baked foods.
• Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls,
angel food cake and bread.
Roasting rack
• Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Convection
roasting
Heat comes from the top heating element. The
convection fan circulates the heated air evenly
over and around the food. Meat and poultry are
browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided,
heated air will be circulated over, under and
around the food being roasted. The heated air
seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender
product while, at the same time, creating a rich
golden brown exterior.
Post
Grid
Broiler pan
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on a shelf
(on 27² models use the offset shelf) in the
lowest shelf position (A).
Offset shelf (27² models only)
When you are convection roasting it is important
that you use the broiler pan and grid and the
special roasting rack for best convection roasting
results. The pan is used to catch grease spills
and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters.
CAUTION:
When you are using the offset shelf (on 27² models) in the
lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling
the shelf out. We recommend that you pull the shelf out several
inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by
holding the sides of it. The offset shelf is low and you could be
burned if you place your hand in the middle of the shelf and pull
all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand on the
door when using a shelf in the lowest position (A).
Place the meat on the special roasting rack. The
rack holds the meat. The rack allows the heated
air to circulate under the meat and increase
browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.
• Place the shelf (on 27² models use the offset
shelf) in the lowest shelf position (A).
• Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the
roasting rack over them making sure the posts
on the roasting rack fit into the holes in the
broiler pan.
21
Using the Convection Oven
Wall Oven
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
Some package instructions for frozen casseroles
or main dishes have been developed using
commercial convection ovens. For best results
in this oven, preheat the oven and use the
temperature on the package.
Adapting
recipes
When baking, reduce baking temperature by 25°F.
No need to preheat when cooking longer than
15 minutes.
For more information on adapting recipes, see
the Convection Cookbook.
Use pan size recommended.
When convection baking with only 1 shelf, follow
the shelf positions recommended in the Baking or
Roasting section.
Multi-shelf
baking
D
C
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked with
excellent results using multiple shelves.
A
Multi-shelf baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall result is
time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and
other quickbreads give very good results with
multi-shelf baking.
Multi-shelf position 27² oven
27² Ovens
When baking on 3 shelves, divide the oven into
thirds by placing the offset shelf in the third (C)
shelf position and the straight shelves in first
(A) and fourth (D) shelf positions.

For two-shelf baking, place the offset shelf in
the bottom (A) shelf position. Place the straight
shelf in the third (C) shelf position.

Multi-shelf position 30² oven
Before using your convection oven, check to see Metal and Glass
Cookware for
convection
cooking
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation
in the oven. If you are baking with several pans,
leave space between them. Also, be sure the
pans do not touch each other or the walls of the
oven.
Any type of cookware will work in your convection
oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and
are recommended for convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
Paper and Plastic
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that
are recommended for use in regular ovens can
be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware
that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F.
can also be used.
When baking cookies, you will get the best
results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a
pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan
with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct
position before you turn on the oven.

Adjust the Oven Thermostat
Wall Oven
You may find that your new oven cooks
differently than the one it replaced. Use your
new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it. If you still think your new oven
is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the
thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found
in grocery stores, to check the temperature
setting of your oven. These thermometers may
vary 20–40 degrees.
Do it
yourself!
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or
the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be
retained in memory after a power failure.
On double oven models both ovens follow the
same step 1. Then proceed with steps 2 through
4, using the pads for the upper or lower oven.
To adjust
the oven
thermostat
1 Press the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads
(on double oven models use the upper oven
controls) at the same time for 3 seconds until
the display shows “SF.”
2 Press the BAKE pad. A two digit number
shows in the display.
Press BAKE once to decrease (-) the oven
temperature, or twice to increase (+).
3 The oven temperature can be adjusted up to
(+) 35°F. hotter or (-) 35°F. cooler. Press the
number pads the same way you read them.
For example, to change the oven temperature
15°F., press 1 and 5.
4 When you have made the adjustment, press

Using the Self-Cleaning Oven
Wall Oven
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be
set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a
clean cycle
The oven must be completely cool in order to
set the self-clean cycle.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood
during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
(appearance may vary)
The oven shelves and convection roasting rack
can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose
their luster and become hard to slide.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean the
top, sides and outside of the oven door with
soap and water.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover (on some
models) is in place and the oven light is off.
On double oven models, you can set a clean cycle in
both ovens at the same time. The last oven set will

after self-cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.
The oven door is removable for cleaning.
Do not lift the door by the handle.
Lift-off
oven door
To remove the door, open it to the broil stop
position. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the
door straight up and off the hinges.
Do not place hands between the hinge and the
oven door frame.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are
in the broil stop position. Position the slots in
the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges
and slowly lower it over both hinges.
To clean the inside of the door:
• Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned
during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to
clean this by hand.
Lift the door straight up and off the hinges.
• The area outside the gasket and the front
frame can be cleaned with a soap-filled steel
wool or plastic pad, hot water and detergent.
Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.
To clean the outside of the door:
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the
top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse
well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean
the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let
water drip into the vent openings.

Always allow the cookie sheets to cool before washing.
You may also place the pan upside down in a
250°F. oven for 30 minutes to dry out the moist
ure. They can also be washed in a dishwasher.
Cookie
sheets
The cookie sheets are designed to breathe and
therefore are not water tight. If you wash them
by hand, they should not be allowed to soak. If
for some reason they do get soaked, stand them
on edge on a towel so the water will drain out.
(on some models)
As with all aluminum cookware, the insulated
cookie sheets may darken with age.
Do not clean in a self-cleaning oven.
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or
commercial oven cleaners.
To safely clean surfaces, wash, rinse and then
dry with a soft cloth.
Metal parts
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a self-
cleaning oven.
Broiler pan
and grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the
oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully
pour out the grease from the pan into a proper
container.
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot
water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with
detergent while hot and cover with wet paper
towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will
remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned
with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere in
the oven.
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after
each use. Clean with mild soap and water or
vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and
polish dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven
cleansers on the control panel—they will
damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of
vinegar and hot water works well.
