Oven Temperature Control

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door and elementor burner cycling may give incorrect readings.

The oven(s) provide accurate temperatures; however, they may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. No sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:

1. Press and hold BAKE until the oven display shows the current calibration, for example, "0°F CAL COOK TEMP," if not yet adjusted, or about 5 seconds.
2. On double ovens only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN to select oven.
   Each oven calibration can be independently set.
3. Press BAKE to increase and BROIL/MAXl//ECONO to decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 35°F (21°C) and -35°F (-21 °C).
4. Press START.

OVEN USE

Odors and smoke are normal when the appliance is new. This happens the first time the oven is used or when the oven is heavily soiled.

During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation.

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.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the oven bottom finish.

• Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely for best cooking results.
• To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.
• Do not cover food with aluminum foil when convection cooking (on some models).

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.

RACKS
Position racks before turning the oven on. 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, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.

BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.

Bakeware

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow manufacturer's recommendations and use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

Oven Vent(s)

Single and Double Oven Models

Double Oven Models Only

The oven vent(s) should not be blocked or covered since they allow the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent(s).

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.

• Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
• After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat _/2in. (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, cook the meat or poultry longer.
• Check all meat in two or three places.

Sabbath Mode

The Sabbath Mode sets the oven to remain on in a bake setting until turned off. A timed Sabbath Mode can also be set to keep the oven on for only part of the Sabbath.

When the Sabbath Mode is set, the number pads are active. On single oven models, CANCEL OFF and START are also active. On double oven models, UPPER and LOWER OVEN and UPPER and LOWER OVEN CANCEL/ OFF are also active. No tones will sound and the displays will not show messages or temperature changes. The heat sources icons will appear lit on the oven display throughout the Sabbath Mode.

When the oven door is opened or closed, the oven light will not turn on or off and the heating elements will not turn on or off immediately.

If a power failure occurs when the Sabbath Mode is set, the oven will return to the Sabbath Mode in an untimed bake with a temperature of 350°F (180°C).

Maxi and Econo Broiling

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food.

During maxi broiling, both the inner and outer broil elements heat. During econo broiling, only the inner broil element heats. The element(s) cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element(s) will turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.

• Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance.
  It is designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
• For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
• Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to prevent curling.
• Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
• After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

To Broil:

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

Position food on the grid on the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

Close the door.

1. On double ovens only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN.
   The cavity symbol will flash indicating which oven was chosen. The left cavity symbol is the upper oven, the right cavity symbol is the lower oven.
2. Press BROIL/MAXl//ECONO.

   Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 500°F (260°C). The broil range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
3. Press START.
   The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display until the oven is turned off.
4. Press CANCEL OFF, UPPER OVEN CANCEL / OFF or LOWER OVEN CANCEL / OFF when finished cooking.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil elements, rack position 4 is recommended. For diagram, see the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.

A temperature of 500°F (260°C) is recommended.

Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual foods and tastes.

Convection Cooking (on some models)

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C) and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

• It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
• Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door when necessary.
• Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
• Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with an alternative method such as a toothpick.
• Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in two or three places.

Convection Bake (on some models)

The T.H.E.^TM (Third Hidden Element) convection element is hidden in the rear panel of the oven cavity, and assisted by the convection fan, provides balanced, efficient heating.

Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.

When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven.

During convection baking preheat, the T.H.E.^TM convection and broil elements and the CleanBake^TM element all heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the T.H.E.^TM convection element and the CleanBake TM element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection baking or preheating, the broil and T.H.E.^TM convection element and fan will turn off immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.

• Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may need to be reduced also.

   Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 300°F (150°C). The convection bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
2. Press START.
   "Lo °'' will appear on the oven display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
   When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the oven display will show the oven temperature increasing in 5° increments.
   When the set temperature is reached, if on, one tone will sound.
3. Press CANCEL OFF when finished cooking.

Convection Roast (on some models)

Convection roasting can be used for roasting meats and poultry, or for baking yeast breads and loaf cakes using a single rack. During convection roasting, the CleanBake^TM and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the broil element and fan will turn off immediately and the CleanBake^TM element will turn off in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.

• Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may need to be reduced also.

To Convection Roast:

Before convection roasting, position racks according to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. It is not necessary wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

Use the roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. This holds the food above the grid and allows air to circulate completely around all surfaces.

1. Press CONVECTION ROAST.

OVEN CARE

Self-Cleaning Cycle (on some models)

WARNING - Burn Hazard

• Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
• Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

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.

Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.

Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.

Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See "Oven Vent(s)" section.

Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven:

• Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide.
  See "General Cleaning" section for more information.
• Hand clean inside door edge and the 11/2in. (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being careful not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc. enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
• Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.

How the Cycle Works

IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds.

The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.

The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, however the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil.

Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled completely could result in the glass breaking.

The oven lights will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

On double oven models, only one oven can self-clean at a time. If one oven is self-cleaning, the other oven can not be set or turned on.
