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.

Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven
temperature because opening the oven door may cause element
cycling to 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.
To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:
1. Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds until the oven display
shows the current calibration, for example “0°F CAL” or “00.”
2. Press the TEMP/HOUR “More” or “Less” arrow pads to
increase or to decrease the temperature in 10°F (5°C) amounts.
The adjustment can be set between 30°F (15°C) and -30°F (-
15°C).
3. Press START.
Options Mode
Press and hold TIMER for 5 seconds and “Opt” will appear. Use the
TEMP/TIME keys to cycle through the following options. Press
CANCEL to exit the mode.
End of Cycle Tones
“b1” (beep once) or “b” (continue to beep) will be displayed. Press
TIMER to toggle through selection.
12-Hour Shutoff
If “12 Hr” is displayed the oven will automatically shut off after
12 hours. Press TIMER to toggle to “- Hr” to disable the 12-hour
shutoff.
Oven Light with Door Open
“LOn” indicates that the oven light will turn on when the door is
open. If “LOFF” is displayed the oven light will turn on only with the
oven light switch. Press TIMER to toggle through selection.
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.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.
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.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure
that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
■
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,
and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a
guide.
