OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE OVEN FOR BAKING
ALUMINUM FOIL
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms. The foil will trap heat below and upset the performance of the oven. Foil
can melt and permanently damage the oven bottom. Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is not covered by the
product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil
than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1 to 1 1/2 inches from oven
walls to prevent poor heat circulation.
As your oven heats up, the temperature change 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.
OVEN MOISTURE
USING THE OVEN FOR ROASTING
Roasting is cooking using 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.
Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Roasting is easy: just follow these directions:
1. Place the shelf in the
A
or
B
position. No preheating is necessary.
2. Check the weight of the meat. Place it fat side up (or for poultry, breast-side-up) on a
roasting rack in a shallow pan. The melting fat will baste the meat. Select a pan as close
to the size of the meat as possible. Line the pan with aluminum foil when using the pan
for marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily cured meats or basting food during
cooking.
3. Turn
the
OVEN TEMP
knob to the desired setting.
4. After roasting is complete, turn the
OVEN TEMP
knob to
OFF
and then remove the food
from the oven.
ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT - EASY TO DO YOURSELF
You may
fi
nd that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use you 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°F.
Note: This adjustment will not affect the broiling temperatures. The adjustment will be retained after a power
failure.
