1 Control Panel

2 Door Gasket

3 Convection Fan

4 Door Hinge

5 Door Latch

6 Rack Position Guides with 6 rack positions

7 Oven Bottom

8 Oven Bottom Vent

Cooling Fan

The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run after the oven is off.

Oven Vent

The oven vent is located at the bottom of the unit. Warm air may be released from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent, since it is important for air circulation.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is protected from damage and spills.

Note:

Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.

CAUTION Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Accessories

Inserting Racks

CAUTION

To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact hot heating elements.

Use caution when removing an oven rack from the lowest rack position to avoid contact with the hot oven door.

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure racks are installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

Flat Rack

The rack is designed with a stop so it will stop before coming completely out of the oven and not tilt.

To insert the flat rack into the oven:

Note: Avoid pushing the rack back forcefully, impacting the rear of the oven cavity. This can cause risk of damage to porcelain coating or to glass covers over light fixtures.

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides.
2. Insert rack (see picture).

3. Tilt rack up (A) to allow the upwardly sloped rear of the rack to slide under the stop molded into the front portion of the rack guide above.

4. When the back of the rack is past this stop, lower the front of the rack to a horizontal position (B) and push it the rest of the way in. The rack should be straight and flat, not crooked.

To remove the flat rack from the oven:

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides and pull rack toward you.
2. When the stop is reached, tilt rack up so that the upwardly sloped back of the rack can pass under the stop. Pull the rack the rest of the way out.

Telescopic Rack

To insert the telescopic rack into the oven:

1. Slide the rack in evenly until the rear of the rack is about 2 inches from the back of the oven.
2. Tilt the front of the rack up about three-quarters of an inch (A) and finish pushing the rack all the way back (B).

Note: Avoid striking the oven light cover glass or the back of the oven when pushing the rack into position.

3. The back of the telescopic rack drops into place.

4. Pull the rack forward to engage the bottom of the rack onto the rear of the rack position guide.

5. Lower the front of the rack to finish seating it on the rack guide. The rack should feel stable when properly seated.

6. Slide the movable part of the telescopic rack in and out a few times to make sure it is able to move freely and that the non-moving part of the telescopic rack is securely anchored.

CAUTION To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure the telescopic rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

To remove the telescopic rack from the oven:

1. Lift the front of the telescopic rack assembly about 1/2 inch and push the rack to the rear about 3/4 inch. This allows the rack to disengage from the rack position guide.

2. Lift the rear of the telescopic rack assembly so it clears the rack position guide and gently pull the rack from the oven.

Note: Take care to avoid pulling the rack unevenly which will cause it to bind during removal, catching on the oven walls.

Operation

About the Appliance

Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.

The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity. The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.

Thanks to the Self Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self Clean is done.

Clear labeling of the touch pads makes operating the oven very easy. This manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.

Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions!

Before Using the Oven for the First Time

• Oven must be properly installed by a qualified technician before use.
• Remove all packing materials from inside and outside the oven.
• While cool, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry.
• There may be a slight odor during first uses; this is normal and will disappear.
• Optimum cooking results depend on proper bakeware being used.
• Read and understand all safety precautions and Use and Care Manual information prior to operating.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

General Tips

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Rack Position

Rack positions are numbered from 1 to 6, from bottom to top. Consult the food cooking charts at the back of this manual for recommended rack positions.

The top rack guide is not used with the cooking racks. Use rack positions 1 through 6 only. The top guide is there only to bracket the rack and prevent it from tipping when inserted in position 6. Inserting a rack onto the top guide would not be stable, since there is no guide above it to prevent tipping. DO NOT attempt to use the top guide to support a rack.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

• Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.
• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, Convection Multi Rack, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.
• Preheat is not used for Roast, Convection Roast and Proof modes.
• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.
• Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
• Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.
• Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.

Preheat Reminders

Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.

• Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.
• Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry, casseroles and frozen foods.
• Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply to your house is less than 240 volts.
• Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.

When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

For Best Results

• Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.
• Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.
• Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently.
• Use the Kitchen Timer to keep track of cooking times.

Baking Pans and Dishes

• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25° F when baking using glass dishes.
• Preheat the oven before adding glass baking dishes.
• Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden-brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.
• Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25º F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.
• Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware will increase the length of cooking time.
• Do not set any heavy object on the open oven door.
• Do not keep empty pans or pizza stones in the oven during cooking as this could change the cooking performance. Store pans outside the oven.

Opening the Oven Door

• Open and close the appliance door only by holding the door handle. To avoid risk of burns, do not touch any other parts of the door.
• Avoid leaving the door open longer than is necessary and warn others to avoid unintentional contact with the open oven door.

High Altitude Baking

When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.

For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.

Condensation

• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

Temperature Range (°F) by Cooking Mode

Cooking Modes

Bake

Bake is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the upper and lower elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature.

The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.

Tips

• When using the Bake mode, preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1 1/2” space between pans or dishes and oven walls.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.

Convection Bake

Convection Bake is similar to Bake. Heat comes from the upper and lower heating elements. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items.

The benefits of Convection Bake include:

• Slight decrease in cook time.
• Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).

Tips

• Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F if Auto Convection Conversion is not activated.
• Place food in shallow, uncovered pans such as a cookie sheet without sides.
• For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5.
• If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below).

Auto Convection Conversion

Convection Bake and Convection Multi-Rack modes require a 25° F reduction in temperature. Auto Convection Conversion reduces the temperature you enter automatically. Simply enter the package or recipe temperature when setting the mode. The control calculates the correct temperature and it is shown in the display.

The Auto Convection Conversion feature can be turned off to allow for manual temperature adjustments. See “Auto Convection Conversion” in the “Settings” section for details.

Convection Multi-Rack

Multi-Rack mode cooks with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

The Convection Multi-Rack mode is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly.

The benefits of Multi-Rack include:

• Even browning.
• Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one time.

Tips

• Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F if Auto Convection Conversion is not activated.
• Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as a cookie sheets without sides.
• If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space around the pan.

Pizza

In the Pizza mode, heat from the upper and lower elements is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.

Tips

• There might be a slight decrease in baking time. Check before minimum package time.
• When baking a frozen pizza:

For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack.

For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.

• When proofing pizza dough, coat dough with olive oil and cover it in a bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.
• Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.
• If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally with corn meal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.
• If par baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough with a fork before baking.
• If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.
• Preheat baking stones following manufacturer’s recommendations while the oven is preheating.
• Bake homemade pizzas on rack position 2 in the center of the rack.
• Follow manufacturer’s directions for frozen pizza.
• The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza mode.

Roast

Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the oven temperature. Roasting uses more intense heat from the upper element than the lower element. This results in more browning of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.

Roast is best suited for meat and poultry and less tender cuts of meat.

Tips:

• Preheating the oven is not necessary.
• Use a high-sided broil pan or roasting pan. Cover dish with a lid or foil for less tender cuts of meat.
• For less tender cuts of meat, add liquids such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or stock for flavor and moisture.
• Roasting bags and using a lid are suitable for use in this mode.
• When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.

Convection Roast

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.

The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry. It is also suitable for roasting vegetables.

The benefits of Convection Roast include:

• As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection modes.
• Rich, golden browning.

Tips:

• Preheating the oven is not necessary.
• Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.
• Check doneness early, since roasting time may decrease. Refer to the Meat/Poultry cooking chart for examples.
• Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
• Use a broil pan with a rack and grid or a shallow, uncovered pan with a rack for roasting.
• Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal termperature of the meat.
• If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent overbrowning.
• Let meat stand covered with foil for 10 to 15 minutes after removing it from the oven.
• Refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart for recommended rack positions.

Broil

Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.

The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed. The benefits of broiling include:

• Fast and efficient cooking.
• Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Tips:

• Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
• Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
• Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
• Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal rack, for broiling.
• Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
• Turn meats (other than fish) once during the recommended cook time. Fish does not need to be turned.
• When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as CorningWare ®.
• Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
• For broil times, refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart.

Convection Broil

Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan.

The Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods. Always use convection broil with the door closed.

In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster.

Tips:

• Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
• Steaks and chops should be at least 1 1/2" thick.
• Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal rack, for broiling.
• Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
• Turn meats once during the recommended cook time.
• Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
• For Convection Broil times, refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart.

Proof

In Proof, the oven uses the upper and lower elements to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or other yeast doughs.

• No preheat is necessary.
• Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
• The Proof mode temperature range is 85º F to 110º F.
• The default temperature in the Proof mode is 100º F.
• Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accommodates the size of the container.
• Keep the oven door closed and use the oven light to check the rising of the dough.

Warm

In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at serving temperature.

• Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until ready to serve for up to one hour.
• Warm mode temperatures are 140º F to 220º F.
• The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170º F.
• Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.

CAUTION

When using Warm mode, follow these guidelines:

• Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.
• Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends holding hot food at 140ºF or warmer.
• DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning

Self Clean

WARNING

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. During the Self Clean cycle, parts of the appliance may become potentially harmful to persons who lack adult knowledge of appliances and adult reactions to potentially harmful conditions.

During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning, small amounts of carbon monoxide can be created. Fiberglass insulation could give off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleansing cycles. To minimize exposure to these substances, provide good ventilation with an open window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.

During Self Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.

NOTICE:

• Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
• Do not clean parts or accessories in the Self Clean oven. Remove all baking dishes and oven racks from the oven prior to running Self Clean.

To set the Self Clean mode:

1. Remove all accessories and racks from the oven.
2. Select the oven to be self-cleaned (for double ovens). If there is a cooking mode on for selected oven, press Oven Clear/Off to end the running mode.
3. Press the Self Clean button below the display.

The Self Clean icon appears in the display. The Self Clean timer default (4:00) hours blinks to indicate it can be accepted or changed.

To accept the 4:00 hour default Self Clean time, press Enter on the numeric keypad.

To enter a different number of hours use the numeric keypad. The value entered must be within the range of to 4:00 hours. Entering a value less than 2:00 or greater than 4:00 results in an error tone and message. Use a longer setting for a heavily soiled oven.

4. When the desired Self Clean time is displayed press Enter on the numeric keypad.

The oven door locks prior to starting Self Clean.

The door lock symbol is displayed and blinks while the door is being locked. Once locked, the door lock symbol is continuously illuminated (not blinking).

The door lock symbol remains illuminated as long as the Self Clean mode is running.

Note: The door remains locked until the oven has cooled down after self-cleaning. The door can be opened again only after Self Clean disappears from the display.

5. Self Clean starts and the oven Self Clean timer begins its countdown.

To Cancel Self Clean

Press the Oven Clear/Off button to cancel Self Clean. When the Self Clean timer ends, for safety the unit must cool down before the door can unlock. During this period the message “COOLING DOWN” is displayed.

6. When the cool down is complete, the message “SELF CLEAN FINISHED” is displayed.

7. Press Oven Clear/Off to clear the display when Self Clean is finished.

8. After the oven has cooled down and the door is unlocked, wipe remaining ash from the oven using a moist cloth.

Note:

• The oven light cannot be turned on during Self Clean.
• The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished components in the oven can become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation. Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners to treat discolorations.
• In double oven models: Self Clean is only available for one oven at a time. The other oven must be turned off.

Avoid These Cleaners

Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the oven finish or parts.

Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.

Do not use flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40.

Chlorine or chlorine compounds in some cleaners are corrosive to stainless steel. Check ingredients on label before using.

Cleaning Guide

Maintenance

Replacing an Oven Light

WARNING

• Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and power to the appliance has been turned off before replacing the light bulb(s). Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.
• The lenses must be in place when using the appliance.
• The lenses serve to protect the light bulb from breaking.
• The lenses are made of glass. Handle carefully to avoid breaking. Broken glass could cause an injury.
• Light socket is live when door is open.

To change the bulb:

1. Turn off power to the oven at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).

2. Remove the glass cover by unscrewing it. Turn the glass counterclockwise to remove it.

3. Remove the bulb. The bulb unscrews counterclockwise.

4. Grasp the new bulb with a clean, dry cloth to prevent depositing skin oils on the glass which could lead to premature bulb failure. Replace the bulb by screwing it in turning the bulb clockwise.

5. Screw the glass cover back on.

6. Turn power back on at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).

Removing the Oven Door

WARNING

When removing the door:

• Make sure oven is cool and power to the oven has been turned off before removing the door. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.
• The oven door is heavy and parts of it are fragile. Use both hands to remove the oven door. The door front is glass. Handle carefully to avoid breakage.
• Grasp only the sides of the oven door. Do not grasp the handle as it may swing in your hand and cause damage or injury.
• Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly could result in personal injury or product damage.
• To avoid injury from hinge bracket snapping closed, be sure that both levers are securely in place before removing the door. Also, do not force door open or closed—the hinge could be damaged and injury could result.
• Do not lay removed door on sharp or pointed objects as this could break the glass. Lay on a flat, smooth surface, positioned so that the door cannot fall over.

To remove the oven door:

To help avoid injury or damage be sure to read the above

WARNING before attempting to remove the oven door.

1. Open the oven door to its fully open, horizontal position.

2. Flip levers on hinges toward you.

Note: It may be necessary to use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to gently pry the upper part of the lever away from the housing. Take care to avoid scratching the housing.

3. Bring both door hinge levers to their fullest down position as shown in the illustration. The left and right door hinges differ slightly but operate in the same manner.

4. Close the oven door until it catches on the hinge stop levers, locking the hinges at the proper angle for door removal. The door will be open about 7 inches at the top. This takes the spring tension off the hinges so the door can be easily lifted out.

5. The door is heavy. Use both hands to firmly grip it by the sides. Do not grip the door by the handle. Maintaining the door angle, lift the door straight up approximately 3/4" to unhook the hinges from the slots and then pull it out towards you until the hinges are clear of the oven housing.

6. Place the door in a convenient and stable location for cleaning.

To replace the oven door:

1. Holding the door firmly in both hands, grip it on either side, not by the handle.

2. Tilt the door back slightly towards you until it opens about 7" at the top.

3. Slide the hinges into the slots as far as they will go and then lower the door straight down. The angle of the door may need to be adjusted slightly to allow the hinges to engage properly and the door to lower into place. The door should lower about 3/4" and stop. If not, the hinges have not engaged properly and the door could fall if it is released.

4. Once both hinges are fully engaged as described in Step 3, gently open the door until it is fully open.

5. Push the levers on both the hinges up and forward until they are locked into the slot, flush with the front of the oven body.

6. Close and open door slowly to be sure it is correctly and securely in place.
