I
CAUTION:
Items of interest to
children should not be stored in cabinets
above an oven; children climbing on the
oven to reach items could be seriously
injured.
I Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
I Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
I Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance. Be
careful when reaching for items stored
in cabinets over the oven. Flammable
material could be ignited if brought in
contact with hot surfaces or heating
elements and may cause severe burns.
I Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
I 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.
I When using cooking or roasting bags
in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s
directions.
I 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 hot heating elements. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth.
I Do not touch the heating elements or the
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.
I For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
I Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in
or near the oven.
I Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls
off.
I Potentially hot surfaces include oven vent
openings, surfaces near the openings,
crevices around the oven door, the edges
of the window and metal trim parts above
the door.
I 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.
I REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
I Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in
or near your oven.
I Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.

aluminum foil may result in a risk
of electric shock or fire.
I Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in an oven can ignite.
I Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the oven when not
in use.
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
I Do not clean the door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or
move the gasket.
I Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the

Using the oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Before you begin…
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the supports, they will
stop before coming completely out, and
will not tilt.
To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt
the front end up and pull it out.
To replace, place the end of the shelf
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the shelf in.
When placing and removing cookware,
pull the shelf out to the bump on the
shelf support.
NOTE: 30″ ovens (shown) have 6 shelf positions.

Preheating and Pan Placement
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 11⁄2″ between
pans, from the front, back and sides of
the wall.
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or
tone, preheat 10 minutes.
Aluminum Foil
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.
Never entirely cover a shelf with
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat
circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
shelf several inches below the food.
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a
spillover.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.

On models with touch pad controls for both ovens, you can use timed baking in one oven while using self-clean
in the other; you can also use timed baking in both ovens at the same time.
NOTE: Foods that spoil easily—such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork—should not be allowed to sit for
more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that
the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!
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.
NOTE: This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it does not affect broiling or self-cleaning
temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.
To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)
Both touch pad ovens follow the
same step 1. First press the upper
oven BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads at
the same time for 3 seconds until
the display shows SF. Then proceed
with steps 2 through 4, using the
pads for the upper or lower oven.
The oven temperature can be
adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter or
(-) 35°F cooler. Press the TEMP +
pad to increase the temperature in
1-degree increments. Press the
TEMP – pad to decrease the
temperature in 1-degree increments.
Press the BAKE pad. A two-digit
number shows in the display.
When you have made the
adjustment, press the START pad to
go back to the time of day display.
Use your oven as you would
normally.
To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)
You will hear and feel the notches as
you turn the knob. Each notch changes
temperature about 10° Fahrenheit.
Pull the OVEN knob off the shaft, look
at the back of the knob and note the
current setting before making any
adjustment. The knob is factory set with
the top screw directly under the pointer.
Tighten the screws.
Return the OVEN knob to the oven.
Pull off the OVEN knob.
Turn the disk counterclockwise to
increase the oven temperature.
Re-check oven performance before making any
additional adjustments.
Loosen both screws on back of
the knob.
Hold both parts of the knob as
shown in the illustration of the back
of the OVEN knob and turn so the
lower screw moves in the desired
direction.
Turn the disk clockwise to decrease
the oven temperature.
The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing
at least 70% vegetable oil.

Using the self-cleaning oven. (Ovens operated with touch pads.)
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the
first self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
oven. Move birds to another well
ventilated room.
Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
I On models with touch pad controls
for both ovens, you can set a clean
cycle in both ovens at the same time.
The last oven set will automatically
delay its start until the end of the first
oven’s clean cycle.
The oven shelves can be self-cleaned, but
they will darken, lose their luster and
become hard to slide.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom. (appearance may vary)
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Clean the top, sides and outside of the
oven door with soap and water.
I On models with touch pad controls for
both ovens, you can use timed baking
in one oven and self-clean the other at
the same time.

Non-Self-Clean Oven Interior (on some models)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
finish on the inside of the oven—top,
bottom, sides, back and inside of the
door—will stay new-looking for years.
The ammonia fumes will help loosen the
burned-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Let the oven cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber gloves
when cleaning the oven.
IDo not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches because it could cause a
short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may
require cleaning with a mild abrasive
cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may
also be used.
IDo not allow a film from the cleaner to build up
on the temperature sensor—it could cause the
oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located
at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the
sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being
careful not to move the sensor as a change in
its position could affect how the oven bakes.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices
or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may
cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
IDo not spray any oven cleaner on the oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner
can damage these surfaces.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a
shallow glass or pottery container in a
cold oven overnight.
Painted Surfaces
Clean with soap and water or a vinegar
and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
Glass Surfaces
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 the oven door
while cleaning.
Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
After cleaning, use a stainless steel
polish, such as Stainless Steel Magic®,
Revere Copper and Stainless Steel
Cleaner®or Wenol All Purpose
Metal Polish®. Follow the product
instructions for cleaning the stainless
steel surface.
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface,
use warm sudsy water, a stainless steel
cleaner such as Kleen King® or an
all-purpose liquid or spray cleaner.
Always scrub in the direction of the
