Using Your Oven
Automatic Ignition
The oven burner is lighted by
electric ignition.
To light the burner, touch the pad
for the desired function and press
INCREASE or DECREASE pad
until the desired temperature is
displayed. The burner should
ignite within 60 seconds.
After the oven reaches the selected
temperature, the oven burner
cycles—off completely, then on
with a full flame-to keep the
oven temperature controlled.
Power outage?
The oven burner will not
in
the event of an electrical power
outage. Do not attempt to light it
manually with a match.
Oven Light
The oven light comes on
automatically when the oven door
is opened. Use the switch on the
control panel to turn the light on
and off when the door is closed.
Oven Vent
When the oven is on, heated air
moves through a vent behind the
grille (see Features of Your
Oven section).
The vent area could get hot during
oven use.
The vent is needed for proper air
flow in the oven and good baking
results. Do not block this vent.
Doing so may cause oven failure
or fire.
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with
locks so when placed correctly on
the shelf supports, they will stop
before coming completely out of
the oven and will not tilt when you
are removing food from them or
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
the shelf back
into the oven. This will eliminate
reaching into the
oven.
To remove a
from the oven,
pull it
you, tilt front end
upward and pull shelf out.
To replace, place shelf
shelf
support with stop-locks (curved
extension of
facing
and
toward rear
oven. Tilt
front
and push shelf
back of
oven until it goes past “stop” on
oven wall. Then lower front of
shelf and push it all the way back.
The oven has four shelf
A (bottom), B, C and D
Shelf positions for cooking are
suggested on Baking and Roasting
pages.
For best results, we recommend
that you use only one oven rack
when baking. If you are baking
multiple items and choose to use
both oven racks for baking, place
oven rack on shelf positions B and
D. When baking several items
stagger pans so that no pan is
directly above another.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the
changing temperature 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.
