Before Using Your Oven
NOTE:
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand
how to set them properly. Read over the directions
for the Oven Controls so you understand how to
use them.
2. Check the inside of the oven. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing them
properly, to give sure, sturdy support.
●
You may notice a “burning” or “oily” smell the
first few times you turn your oven on. This is
normal in a new oven and will disappear in a short
time. To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for
a minimum of 3 hours. See the Operating the Self-
Cleaning Oven section.
●
A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
3. Read over the information and tips that follow.

especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven.

placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the “stop” position. Place the cookware on the
shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven. This will
eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove the shelf from the oven, pull it forward to
the stop-locks and lift the front of the shelf. Be certain
that the shelf is cool before touching it.
To replace the shelf in the oven, tilt the shelf up at
the front and slide the curved extension of the shelf
under the stop-locks on the shelf supports. Then slide
the shelf all the way into the oven.

What is Convection?
Because food is heated faster in a convection oven
when using the convection modes, many types of food
can be cooked at lower temperatures than those
suggested for regular ovens. Do remember that recipe
books often give times and temperatures for cooking
in regular ovens. Convection ovens make it possible

convection heat.
When should you use Convection Bake or Convection Roast?
In convection roast, heat comes from the top oven
To help you understand the difference between
convection bake and roast and traditional bake and
roast, here are some general guidelines.
In convection bake, 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.
In regular baking, the bottom oven element heats
the air in the oven which then cooks the food.
Convection Bake
Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked
on all 3 shelves.
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

time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
Convection Roast

Regular Roast

●
Good for large quantities of baked foods.
●
Less tender cuts of meat because these need to cook
a long time in liquid to become tender.

Regular Bake
Foods such as layer cakes have a more level top
crust when not baked with convection heat.
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Paper and Plastic
Before using your convection oven, check to see
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.
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is
resistant to temperatures of
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, you should
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.
Metal and Glass
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.
●
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

CONVECTION BAKING
(upper oven only)
Adapting Recipes For Convection Baking
Check foods for doneness at the minimum
suggested cooking time.
Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
For more information on adapting recipes, see the
Convection Cookbook.
As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for
convection baking. For more specific instructions,
follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook.
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake
time of over 15 minutes.
Multi-Shelf Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the
oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on
2 or 3 shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may
increase cook times slightly for some foods but the
overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,
For 2-shelf baking, place the offset shelf in the
bottom (A) shelf position. Place the straight shelf in
the third (C) shelf position.
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf 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.

Meats cooked in a convection oven are dark brown
on the outside and tender and on the inside.
In most cases, cooking time will be less when using
the Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking
time is reduced by 10 minutes per hour.
The special roasting rack and broiler pan allow heated
air to circulate over and under the meat. This allows
the meat to brown on all sides.
To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it,
we recommend using the temperature probe provided
with the oven. Your double oven has a probe in the
upper oven only.
Adapting Recipes for Convection Roasting
Use the temperature recommended in the
Convection Roasting Guide.
Use the special roasting rack with the broiler
pan and grid.
Preheating is not necessary.
Check foods for doneness at the minimum
suggested time.
For more information on adapting recipes,
see the Convection Cookbook.

How to Set Your Oven for Convection Roasting When Using the Temperature Probe
NOTE: For best results when roasting large
turkeys and roasts, we recommend using the probe
included in the convection oven. For correct
placement of the probe, see the description in the
Regular Roasting section.
The display will flash “PROBE” and the oven
control will signal if the probe is inserted into
the outlet, but the oven is not programmed for
the probe.
Your double oven has controls for the upper oven
and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct
control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for
the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel

REGULAR BAKING
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately
using an oven control system. We recommend that you
operate the oven for a number of weeks to become
familiar with your new oven’s performance. If you
think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the
Oven Thermostat section in this guide. It gives easy
on how to adjust the thermostat.
Your double oven has controls for the upper oven
and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct
control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for
the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel
are for the lower oven. The TIMER ON/OFF,
COOK TIME, STOP TIME, INCREASE and
DECREASE pads can be used for either oven.
NOTE: When the oven is hot, the front of the oven
gets hot too.
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.

Roasting
Preheating
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat
means bringing the oven up to the specified
temperature before putting in the food. To preheat,
set the oven at the correct temperature—selecting
a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat
10 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the
food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent
heat from escaping.
Baking Pans
Pan Placement
Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to 1X-inch space between pans as well
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.
If you use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not
directly above the other.
●
Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
●
Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
●
Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking
in glass baking dishes, reduce the temperature by
25°F.

Baking Guides
When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions
for the best baking results.
Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results during regular baking, use only one
cookie sheet in the oven at a time.
Also see the Multi-Shelf Baking section.
Pies
Cakes
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet
for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away
from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended.
Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result in
poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil maybe used
to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf
several inches below the food.
Don’t Peek
Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do
not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as “bake 30-40 minutes.”
DO NOT open the door to check until the
minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently
during cooking allows heat to escape and makes
baking times longer. Your baking results may also
be affected.

Most meats continue to cook slightly while standing,
after being removed from the oven. Standing time
recommended for roasts is 10 to 20 minutes. This
allows roasts to firm up and makes them easier to
carve. Internal temperature will rise about 5° to
10”F.; to compensate for temperature increase, if
desired, remove the roast from the oven sooner
(at 5° to 10”F. less than the temperature in the
Regular Roasting Guide).
Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or
poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.
Roasting temperatures, which should be low and
steady, keep spattering to a minimum.
Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot
oven and therefore should be removed when the
desired internal temperature has been reached.
Roasting is really a
procedure used for meats.
Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or Timed

Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe
Your double oven has a probe in the upper oven only.
Use the handles of the probe and plug when
inserting and removing them from the meat and
wall outlet. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable
when removing the probe—they might damage it.
TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE
SURE FOOD IS COMPLETELY DEFROSTED
BEFORE INSERTING.
A temperature probe has been provided for use in your
new oven. This probe is designed to withstand high
temperatures. Temperature probes provided with other
products, such as those used for microwave ovens,
may not be designed to withstand high temperatures.
Use of probes other than the one provided with this
product may result in damage to the probe.
Cable
Probe
Never leave your probe inside the oven during a
self-cleaning cycle.
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.
When the internal temperature of the food reaches the
temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.
Plug
Handles
The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at
1 end and a plug at the other end that goes into the
outlet on the oven wall.
Appearance may vary
After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet
or the broiler pan grid, follow these steps for proper
probe placement.

REGULAR ROASTING QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q. Do I need to preheat my oven each time I cook a
roast or poultry?
Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a
meat thermometer?
A. is not necessary to preheat your oven.
Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips
that would help me cook it more evenly?
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,
or buy rolled roasts.
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when
roasting a turkey?
A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the
completion of cooking time is recommended if you
did not use the probe while cooking. Temperatures
are shown in the Regular Roasting Guide. For roasts
over 8 lbs., check with thermometer at half-hour
intervals after half the cooking time has passed.
Q. Why is my roast crumbling when try to
carve it?
A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving it
unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown
the meat.
A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to
20 minutes after removing them from the oven.
Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.
REGULAR ROASTING GUIDE
Frozen Roasts
Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting.
Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly.
Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked
successfully without thawing. Follow the directions
given on the package label.
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started
without thawing, but allow 15 to 25 minutes per
pound additional time (15 minutes per pound for
roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from
the upper broil element in the oven. You can broil in
the upper or the lower oven. Most fish and tender cuts
of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to
keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.
Turn the food only once during broiling. Time the
foods for the first side according to the Broiling Guide.
Your double oven has controls for the upper oven
and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct
control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for
the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel
are for the lower oven. The TIMER ON/OFF,
COOK TIME, STOP TIME, INCREASE and
DECREASE pads can be used for either oven.
Turn the food, then use the times given for the second
side as a guide to preferred doneness.
6. Press the INCREASE pad for HI
Broil or press the DECREASE pad
for LO Broil.
1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart.
If desired, the fat maybe trimmed, leaving a layer
about 1/8 inch thick.
2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.
Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler
pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough
to catch on fire.
To change from HI Broil to LO Broil,
press the DECREASE pad once.
3. Position a flat shelf on the recommended shelf
position as suggested in the Broiling Guide.
Most broiling is done on C position, but if your
range is connected to 208 volts, you may wish
to use a higher position.

BROILING
(continued)
Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan
and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil
tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat
juices from draining to the broiler pan. The juices
could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do
not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.
Questions and Answers
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown
as they should?
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a
grid in the pan?
A. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the range
may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil
element for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan
with food in oven. Check to see if you are using
the recommended shelf position. Broil for longest
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn the food only once during broiling. You may
need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan,
thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the
grid and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive
spatter and smoking.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler grid to prevent
meat from sticking?
A. No. The broiler grid is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to
prevent meat from sticking to the surface.
However, spraying the broiler grid lightly with a
vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make
clean-up easier.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to
evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the
meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also
allows the juices to escape. When broiling poultry
or fish, brush each side often with butter.

●
Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
The oven door should be open to the broil
stop position.
For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
●
●
When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty
edges hang over the sides because the dripping fat
could soil the oven.
The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat
if desired.
Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1 times per side.
Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.
If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating the broiler and
positioning the oven shelf one position higher.

If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to

CARE AND CLEANING
Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you efficient
and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for your
oven to assure safe and proper maintenance.
Broiler Pan and Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan and grid from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully
pour out grease from the pan into a proper container.
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.
The broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere
in the oven.
Do not clean the broiler pan and grid in the
cleaning oven.
Oven Shelves and Convection Roasting Rack
Clean the oven shelves (including the offset shelf,) and
the convection roasting rack with an abrasive cleanser
or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves and
rack with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE: The oven shelves and convection roasting
rack may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven.
However, the shelves may darken in color, lose their
luster and become hard to slide if cleaned during the
self-cleaning cycle.
Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after
cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.

Oven Light Replacement
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,
disconnect the electrical power for your oven at
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be sure to
let the light cover and bulb cool completely before
removing or replacing them. When in use, light bulbs
can become warm enough to break if touched with a
moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid touching
warm lights with cleaning cloths if the light cover is
removed.
The oven light is covered with a removable glass
cover which is held in place with a wire. Remove the
oven door, if desired, to reach the cover easily.
I
Wire cover holder
To remove:
Hold your hand under the cover so it doesn’t fall
when released. With fingers of the same hand, firmly
push back the wire cover holder. Lift off the cover.
DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS.
Replace bulb with 40-watt home appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
Place it into the groove of the light receptacle. Pull the
wire forward to the center of cover until it snaps in
place. When in place, the wire holds the cover firmly.
Be certain the wire is in the depression in the center of
the cover.
Connect the electrical power to the
Oven Heating Elements
Broil Element
Bake Element
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If
residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.

Control Panel
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
cleaners, 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.
Glass Surfaces
Metal Parts
To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass cleaner.
Rinse and polish with a dry cloth. Do not allow the
water or cleaner to run down inside openings in
the glass or the openings in the top of the oven
door while cleaning.
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or
commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces:
wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.
