OPERATION
PREHEATING THE OVEN
• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and Convection Roast
modes.
• Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.
• Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.
• Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.
• Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
• During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is always displayed.
• A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the “PREHEAT” writing will
turn off.
OPERATIONAL SUGGESTIONS
• Use the cooking charts, in this manual, as a guide.
• Do not set pans on the open oven door.
• Use the interior oven lights to view the food through the oven door window
rather than opening the door frequently
TEMPERATURE PROBE
• Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe.
• Do not touch broil element.
• Failure to do so can result in burns.
• The temperature probe monitors the internal food temperature, which is
frequently used as an indicator of doneness especially or meats and poultry, and
turns off the oven when the internal food temperature reaches the programmed
temperature.
• The temperature probe will work with all oven modes except for the Warm/
Proof, Sabbath and Self-Clean modes.
Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven when
removing the food.

AUTOMATIC SELF-CLEANING
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
)DLOXUHWRGRVRFDQUHVXOWLQEXUQV
This oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the
need to manually scrub the oven interior. During self-cleaning, the
oven uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure
to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move
birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
• Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-Cleaning
cycle to help get rid of heat, odors and smoke.
• ,WLVFRPPRQWRVHHVPRNHDQGRUDQRFFDVLRQDOÁDPHXS

off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to
wipe up the excessive food soil.
• Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
$LUPXVWEHDEOHWRPRYHIUHHO\6HH´2YHQ9HQWVµRQSDJH
• Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket.
• The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the
6HOI&OHDQF\FOH´$872/2&.µZLOODSSHDULQWKHGLVSOD\
This ensures that the oven door cannot be opened while the
oven interior is at clean temperatures.
• The oven is preset for a 2.5 hour clean cycle; however, the time
can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil
and between 3.0 hours and 3.5 hours for average to heavy soil.
• Clean mode stops automatically at the end of the set cleaning
time.

TO USE THE TEMPERATURE PROBE
1. Insert the probe into the food.
NOTE
: For meats, the probe tip should be inserted
into the center of the thickest part of the meat. Make sure that the probe tip is not
into the fat or touching bone.
2. Place the food into the oven. Keeping the temperature probe as far away from a
heat source as possible, plug the temperature probe into the oven outlet. Close
the oven door.
3. Select the oven mode.
4. Enter the oven temperature by pressing the numbers on the keypad.
5. Press START. The set oven temperature will appear on the display throughout
cooking.
6. Enter the desired internal food temperature by pressing the numbers on the
keypad, and then press START.
• The internal food temperature can be set between 130°F and 200°F.
• When the set probe temperature is reached, the oven will turn off.
7. Press Cancel when finished. Unplug the temperature probe and remove food
from the oven. The probe icon will remain lit in the display until the probe is
unplugged.
UTENSILS
• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25°F when baking
in glass.
• Use pans that produce the desired browning. The type of finish on the pan will
help determine the amount of browning that will occur.
• Shiny, smooth metal or light non-stick / anodized pans reflect heat, resulting
in lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of
utensil.
• Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper
crust. Use this type for pies.
• Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven, as this could affect cooking
performance. Store the broil pan outside of the oven.
