Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known to
the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives
off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by
venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.
When using electrical appliances basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:
WARNING—To reduce the risk of burns,
electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to
excessive microwave energy:
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this guide. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This
cooking center is specifically designed to heat

or industrial use.
• Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified
technician in accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions.
• Have the installer show you the location
of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for
easy reference.
• Be sure the cooking center is securely installed
in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house
structure. Weight on the oven door could cause
the oven to tip and result in injury. Never allow
anyone to climb, sit, or hang on the oven door.
• This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system,
or an equipment grounding conductor should
be run with the circuit conductors and connected
to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
• This appliance should be serviced only by

authorized service facility for examination, repair
or adjustment. Do not repair or replace any part of
this appliance unless specifically recommended in
this guide. All other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE COOKING CENTER POWER SUPPLY
AT THE HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION
PANEL BY REMOVING THE FUSE OR
SWITCHING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not cover or block any openings on the
appliance.
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not
use this product near water—for example, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.
• Do not operate this appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let
pot holders touch hot heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can
catch fire on a hot element.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot holders,
and other linens a safe distance from your oven.
• Always keep wooden spoons and plastic
utensils and canned food a safe distance
away from your oven.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your oven.
• Do not store flammable material in an oven or
near the cooking center.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils,
or food in the oven when not in use.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or
near the cooking center.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan on surface unit
by covering pan completely with
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming
grease outside a pan can be put out by covering
with baking soda or, if available, a multi-purpose
dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Do not touch heating elements or interior
surface of the oven. These surfaces may be
hot enough to burn even though they are dark
in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact any
interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time
for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include
oven vent
openings, surfaces near
the openings, and
crevices around the oven door.
Remember: The inside surface of the oven may
be hot when the door is opened.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that,
in the remote possibility that trichina may be
present in the meat, it will be killed and the
meat will be safe to eat.
Microwave Oven:
• Read and follow the specific “Precautions to
Avoid Possible Exposure To Excessive
Microwave Energy” section.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
—Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
appliance if paper, plastic or other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
—Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic
containers before placing bags in oven.
—Do not use your microwave oven to dry
newspapers.
—Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and wax paper
can contain metal flecks which may cause
arcing or fire. Paper products containing
nylon or nylon filaments should be avoided,
as they may also ignite.
—Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven
unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory
or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in
microwave ovens.
—Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to
your oven.
—Do not operate the oven while empty to avoid
damage to the oven and the danger of fire. If by
accident the oven should run empty a minute or
two, no harm is done. However, try to avoid
operating the oven empty at any time—it saves
energy and prolongs the life of the oven.
Important Safety Instructions
—Do not use the oven for storage purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
—If materials inside the oven should ignite,
keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and
disconnect the power cord, or shut off power
at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. If the door is
opened, the fire may spread.
• Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers—for example, closed jars—
will explode and should not be heated in this
microwave oven. Such use of the microwave
oven could result in injury.
• Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with
the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly. Be
careful to prevent scalding when warming
formula or breast milk. The container may feel
cooler than the milk really is. Always test the milk
before feeding the baby.
• Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure
will build up inside the egg yolk and will cause it
to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Foods with unbroken outer “skin”
such as potatoes, sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers and other
giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow
steam to escape during cooking.
• Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is opened, pressure can build
up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
• Use metal only as directed in this guide.
TV dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less
than 3/4 inch high; remove the top foil cover and
return tray to box. When using metal in the
microwave oven, keep metal (other than the metal
shelf) at least one inch away from sides of oven.
• Cookware may become hot because of heat
transferred from the heated food. Pot holders may
be needed to handle the cookware.
• The oven floor can become too hot to touch. Be
careful touching the floor during and after cooking.
• Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may tend
to boil over more rapidly than foods containing less
moisture. Allow the container to stand in the oven
for 30 to 40 seconds after the oven has shut off.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that,
in the remote possibility that trichina may be
present in the meat, it will be killed and the
meat will be safe to eat.
• Do not use a thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless the thermometer is designed
or recommended for use in the microwave oven.
• Remove the temperature probe from the
oven when not using it to cook with. If you
leave the probe inside the oven without inserting
it in food or liquid, and turn on microwave energy,
it can create electrical arcing in the oven and
damage oven walls.
• Hot foods and steam can cause
burns. Be careful when opening any
containers of hot food, including
popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To
prevent possible injury, direct steam away from
hands and face.
• Plastic Cookware—Plastic cookware designed
for microwave cooking is very useful, but should
be used carefully. Even microwave-safe plastic
may not be as tolerant of overcooking conditions
as are glass or ceramic materials and may soften
or char if subjected to short periods of
overcooking. In longer exposures to overcooking,
the food and cookware could ignite. For these
reasons: 1) Use microwave-safe plastics only and
use them in strict compliance with the cookware
manufacturer’s recommendations. 2) Do not
subject empty cookware to microwaving. 3) Do
not permit children to use plastic cookware
without complete supervision.
• Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use
in microwave ovens. Check the package for
proper use.
• As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
• Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use
in microwave ovens. Check the package for
proper use.
• “Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly closed
plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as
directed on the package. If they are not, plastic
could burst during or immediately after cooking,
possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage
containers should be at least partially uncovered
because they form a tight seal. When cooking
with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap,
remove covering carefully and direct steam away
from hands and face.
• Spontaneous boiling—Under certain
special circumstances, liquids may start
to boil during or shortly after removal
from the microwave oven. To prevent burns from
splashing liquid, allow the container to stand in
the oven for 30 to 40 seconds after the oven has
shut off.
• Use of the DOUBLE DUTY™ shelf accessory.
—Remove the shelf from the oven when not in use.
—Do not store or cook with the shelf on the floor
of the oven. Product damage may result.
—Use pot holders when handling the shelf and
cookware. They may be hot.
—Do not use microwave browning dish on shelf.
The shelf could overheat. Use of the shelf with
Automatic Cooking feature is not recommended.
Self-Cleaning Lower Oven:
• Stand away from the cooking center when
opening the oven door. The hot air or steam
which escapes can cause burns to hands, face
and/or eyes.
• Do not heat unopened food containers in the
oven. Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
• Keep the oven vent duct unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in or
near your oven.
• Keep the cooking center clean and free of
accumulations of grease or spillovers, which
may ignite.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the cooking center.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be handled
when hot, do not let pot holder contact heating
units in the oven.
• Pulling out the shelf to the stop locks is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in oven,
follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
• Do not store anything in your oven. These items
may catch fire, and plastic items may melt.
Always keep the oven clear and free of items that
may burn.
• Do not line the oven bottom with aluminum
foil. Do not use aluminum foil except as
suggested in this guide.
• After broiling, always take the broiler pan out
of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease on the
broiler pan can catch fire the next time you use
the pan.
• Clean only parts listed in this Use and
Care Guide.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating
of any kind should be used in or around any part
of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will
damage the inside of the oven when the self-
cleaning cycle is used.
• Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning cycle.
• Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler
pan and other cookware.
• Listen for a fan— a fan noise should be heard
sometime during the cleaning cycle. If not, call
for service before self-cleaning again.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,
turn off and disconnect the power supply.
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

MICROWAVE TIPS
• Make sure all the cookware used in your
microwave oven is suitable for microwaving.
Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring
cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware
which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a
metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is
labeled “suitable for microwaving.”
• If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe,
use this test:
Place in the oven both
the dish you are
testing and a glass
measuring cup filled
with one cup water—
set the measuring cup
either in or next to the
dish. Microwave for 1 minute at high. If the dish
heats, it should not be used for microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the water in the
cup heats, then the dish is microwave-safe.
• Paper towels, wax paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover dishes in order to retain
moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent
plastic wrap so steam can escape.
• Some microwaved foods require stirring,
rotating or rearranging. See the cookbook.
• Steam builds up pressure in foods which
are tightly covered by a skin or membrane.
Pierce potatoes, egg yolks and chicken livers
to prevent bursting.
All these things are normal with your
microwave oven:
• Steam or vapor escaping from around the door.
• Light reflection around the door or the outer case.
• Dimming of the oven light and change in the blower
sound may occur while operating at power levels
other than high.
• The microwave fan may operate with both ovens
off. It is cooling the control and will turn itself off.
• Some TV-Radio interference might be noticed while
using your microwave oven. It’s similar to the
interference caused by other small appliances and
does not indicate a problem with your oven.
• A dull thumping sound while the oven is operating.
HOW TO USE THE HOLD TIMER
The hold timer has three timing functions:
• It operates as a minute timer.
• It can be set to delay cooking.
• It can be used as a hold setting after defrosting.
The hold timer operates without microwave energy.

How to Time Defrost, Hold and Time Cook
Let’s say you want to defrost a frozen casserole for
15 minutes, hold for 10 minutes and then Time Cook
for 25 minutes. Here’s how to do it:
1. Take casserole from freezer and place in oven.
2. Press the TIME DEFROST pad.
3. Press the number
pads 1, 5, 0 and 0
to set 15 minutes
defrosting time.
4. Set the standing or Hold Time by
pressing the HOLD TIMER pad.
5. Press the 1, 0, 0 and 0 pads to hold for ten minutes.
6. Press the TIME COOK pad.
7. Press the 2, 5, 0 and 0 pads to set 25 minutes of

9. When time is up, the oven control signals and the
oven automatically shuts off.
NOTE: Foods that spoil easily such as milk, eggs,
fish, stuffings, poultry and pork should not be allowed
to sit for more than one hour after defrosting. Room
temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
Be sure that the oven light is off because heat from the
bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.
Defrosting is automatically set on Power
Level 3, but can be changed by pressing the

Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I accidentally reverse my
defrost, hold and cook instructions?
A. The oven will automatically rearrange your
program. Defrosting will always come first, then
hold, and then the cooking function.
Q. Can I defrost and hold only?
A. Yes. Sometimes you may only want to defrost
a food, hold it, and cook it later. All you need
to do is program in Time Defrost and amount
of time. Then program Hold and the amount of
time. Be sure to put the thawed dish in the
refrigerator promptly.

Defrosting Tips
• Foods frozen in
paper or plastic
can be defrosted
in the package.
• Family-size, pre-packaged frozen dinners can be
defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil
container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.
• For even defrosting,
some foods need to
be broken up or
separated part of the
way through the
defrosting time.
Questions and Answers
Q. When I press the START pad, I hear a dull,
thumping noise. What is it?
A. This sound is normal. It is letting you know the
oven is using a power level lower than 10 (HIGH).
Q. Can I defrost small items in a hurry?
A. Yes, but they will need more frequent attention
than usual. Raise the power level after entering the
time by pressing the desired power level pad.
Power Level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in
half; Power Level 10 cuts the total defrosting time
to approximately 1/3. During either, rotate
or stir food frequently.

COOKING BY TEMPERATURE
Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for many foods.
TEMP COOK/HOLD takes the guesswork out of cooking because the
oven automatically switches to the Hold setting after reaching the preset
food temperature and maintains that temperature until you either open the
door or press the CLEAR/OFF pad.
The Temperature Probe
A temperature probe has been provided for use in
your new cooking center. The temperature probe is a
food thermometer that gauges the internal temperature
of your food; it must be used when using the Temp
Cook/Hold or Auto Roast microwave oven functions.
Temperature probes provided with other products,
such as those used for ovens, are designed to
withstand high temperatures. Use of probes other
than the one provided with this product may result
in damage to the probe.
To use your probe properly in a roast, see the
Automatic Roasting section.
Cooking Tips
• Use a lower power level; it will heat food more
evenly though requiring more time.
• Cover foods loosely for moisture control and quick,
even heating.
• Be sure frozen food has been completely defrosted
before inserting probe. The probe may break off if
you attempt to push it into frozen foods.

Questions and Answers
Q. Are there any foods I can’t Temp Cook?
A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice cream, frozen
whipped toppings, etc. soften rapidly at warm
temperatures. Batters, doughs
and frozen foods are
also difficult
to cook precisely with the probe.
It’s
best to Time Cook these foods.
Q. Why did “PRObE” flash after I touched the
START pad?
A. “PRObE” will flash if you don’t seat the cable end
of the probe securely into the receptacle in the
oven wall or if you press the TEMP COOK/HOLD
pad and forget to use the probe.
Q. Can I leave my probe in the oven if it’s not
inserted in the food?
A. No, if it touches the oven wall, damage may occur
to the probe and oven.
Q. After I followed the steps and pressed the START
pad “ERROR” flashed on the display and the
oven control signaled. What’s wrong?
A. “ERROR” flashes if you set the temperature either
below 80°F. or above 199°F. The oven display will
show you, between the flashing of “ERROR,”
what incorrect entry was made. To re-enter, press
the CLEAR/OFF pad and begin again.

AUTOMATIC ROASTING
Auto Roast uses the temperature probe to cook
to the desired serving temperature. Unlike Temp
Cook/Hold, which uses a single power level, Auto
Roast uses up to 3 power settings which automatically
switch during roasting, thus providing even, tender
cooking results without overcooking.
Just as in conventional roasting, only tender roasts
should be Auto Roasted until specified internal
temperatures are reached. Less tender roasts should be
microwaved by time, according to the cookbook
which comes with your oven.
Cooking by Temperature Automatic Roasting
Preparing Roasts for Auto Roasting
Place tender beef roast on a
microwave-safe rack in
microwave-safe dish. Insert probe
horizontally into the center meaty
area not touching bone or fat.
Make sure the handle does not
touch the food or top or sides of
the oven. Cover with wax paper.
Pork or ham roasts need no trivet.
Add 1/2 cup water to roast dish
and cover with plastic wrap. Allow
room for probe when covering.

AUTOMATIC COOKING
The Auto Cook feature may be used to eliminate your
need to look up cooking time in a cookbook or guess
how long to set cooking time. By actually sensing
the steam that escapes as food microwaves, this
feature automatically adjusts the oven’s cooking
time to various types and amounts of food.
Because most cooking containers must be covered
during Auto Cook, this feature is best with foods that
you want to steam or retain moisture.
NOTE: Use of the metal Double Duty™ shelf
with Auto Cook is NOT recommended.
Foods Recommended Foods Not Recommended
A wide variety of foods including meats, fish
casseroles, vegetables, leftovers and convenience
foods can be Auto Cooked.
Foods that must be cooked uncovered, foods that
require constant attention, foods that require addition
of ingredients during cooking, and foods calling for a
dry look or crisp surface after
cooking should not be
Auto Cooked.
It is best to Time Cook them.
Foods that microwave best using the temperature
probe should be Temp Cooked or Auto Roasted.
Easy to Use Keep Door Closed
Simply press three control pads—AUTO COOK,
desired CODE, and START. The word ‘‘AUTO’’
appears on the display and the sensor is activated to
sense steam from food.
Do not open the oven door while the word ‘‘AUTO’’
is displayed—steam escaping from the oven can
affect cooking performance. If the door is opened,
close the door and press the START pad immediately.
Auto Cook Codes
Auto Cook codes 1 through 9 are designed to give
you easy
automatic
results with a number of foods.
Code 1, designed for reheating foods quickly, turns
the oven off automatically as soon as the sensor
detects steam from the foods.
When codes 2 through 9 are selected, the oven
determines how much additional cooking time is
needed after steam has been sensed, automatically
switches to TIME COOK and signals. The word
‘‘AUTO’’ on the display is then replaced by
countdown numbers indicating remaining cooking
time. When the signal is heard, the oven door may be
opened for stirring, turning or rotating food.
A guide behind the oven door lists cooking codes for
frequently prepared fresh or uncooked foods and
appropriate codes are recommended in the recipes and
cooking guide in the Automatic Cooking section.

How to Adjust the Auto Cook Codes to Suit Your Taste
By simply adding a 1 after any Auto Cook code
number, you can set the oven to cook for 20% less
time than the code would regularly provide.
For example, if Code 5 cooks your chicken more
than you like it, set code 51 next time and you’ll get
20% shorter cooking time.
If you want a longer cooking time than a code
provides, add a 9 after the code.
For the chicken in the example above, code 59 would
provide 20% longer cooking time than the regular
code 5 would provide.
For example:
1. Press the AUTO COOK pad.
2. Press number pads 5 and 1 in

CONTAINERS AND COVERS
Containers and Covers
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good cooking results.
• Always use microwave-safe containers and cover
them with lids or vented plastic wrap. Wonder if
it’s microwave safe? Put it to the test described in
the Microwaving Tips section.
• Never use tight-sealing plastic covers—they can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
• Match the amount of food to the size of the
container. Fill containers at least half full for
best results.
• Be sure the outside of the cooking container and
the inside of the microwave oven are dry before
placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning
into steam can mislead the sensor.
• Stir or rotate some foods after a beeping signal,
if required. See Automatic Cooking Control
Guide section.
Use microwave-safe casseroles or
bowls for entrees and vegetables.
Cover with lids that fit. If lids are
not available, use plastic wrap or
wax paper. Plastic wrap should be
vented over food to allow for
escaping steam. Seal by pressing
plastic wrap firmly around edges.
For frozen entrees in paperboard
trays, remove tray from box but do
not remove film over tray. Thick
entrees may take longer to
cook—see the Automatic Cooking
Control Guide.
For frozen foods in metal trays,
remove foil covering and baked
goods, reinsert tray into box and
close ends of box.
Slit plastic pouches 1 inch as
shown above. Break food up
thoroughly after oven signals.
Use oblong or square containers
for chicken or corn on the cob.
Plastic wrap covering should be
vented over food to allow for
escaping steam. Seal by pressing
plastic wrap firmly around edges.
Paper plates—while they may be
used for Time and Temperature
Cooking and Defrosting, do not use
them with automatic cooking. Use
microwave-safe plates or bowls for
reheating. Cover with plastic wrap
or wax paper.
Follow Automatic Cooking Control

HOW TO USE THE DOUBLE DUTY
TM
SHELF
Your shelf accessory is designed for use in the
microwave oven only; do no use it in the lower oven.
Do not use a browning dish with the shelf. Arcing
could occur.
The wire shelf is specifically designed for added
heating and reheating capacity. More than one food
may be heated or reheated and ready to serve at the
same time.
When microwaving with the oven shelf, it is
important to arrange foods properly, and this is shown
on the next page. Cookware size is important; select
from among the suggestions below. Also, food size
should be considered; foods over 4 inches high, or 3
1
⁄
2
pounds are not recommended for shelf cooking.
Do not use the oven shelf to cook batters and
dough foods and also uncooked foods which need
to be prepared from scratch.
Use pot holders when handling foods heated
together with your oven shelf, especially when
heating larger amounts of food. The extra steam
generated from cooking multiple foods may make
containers hotter than with regular microwaving.
Pop popcorn on the microwave oven floor only.
Popcorn placed on the oven shelf will not pop
properly. Use a special microwave popcorn accessory
or popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.
• Use the shelf only when cooking food on
two levels. Food microwaves best when placed
directly on the oven floor.
• Do not store or cook with shelf on floor of oven.
Product damage may result.
• Use pot holders when handling metal shelf and
containers. They may be hot.
• Do not store microwave browning dish on
the metal shelf.
• Use of the Double Duty™ shelf with Automatic
Cooking is not recommended.
Cookware for Shelf Heating and Reheating
Before placing food in the dishes, check to see that
they will fit together on or under the shelf. Also, be
sure cookware is microwave-safe.
Cookware for heating or reheating include
1 cup measuring cup, 9x5x3-inch loaf dishes, 8x4x3-
inch loaf dishes or 9-inch pie plates.
Leftovers may be placed in small individual ceramic
or plastic bowls or divided plates.
Use wax paper or plastic wrap instead of lids on
casseroles. Lids may add too much height to dish.
Positioning the Shelf
To position the Double Duty™
shelf, tip the back slightly and fit
the shelf support guides onto the
support guides located on each
side of the oven in the rear.
Next, lower the front until the shelf
support guides fit onto the support
guides located at each side of the
oven in the front.
When properly positioned, the
shelf should fit snugly in place, be
level and not touch the back wall
of the oven.
If arcing occurs when using the
shelf to cook more than one food
at the same time, turn the oven off.
Make sure the shelf is positioned
right-side-up on all four shelf supports
and not touching oven walls.
To prevent arcing, remove the
shelf when you are not using it.

How to Heat or Reheat Similar Types of Food
Two plates of leftovers
may be reheated
together. Arrange thick
or dense foods to
outside edges of plate
and cover with plastic
wrap. Microwave at
High (10) for 2 to 3 minutes. Reverse position of
plates (top to bottom) and rotate 1/2 turn. Continue
microwaving at High (10) for 2 to 3 minutes.
Continue heating, if necessary, until hot.
Reheating two casseroles
(height should be less than
4 inches) is possible.
Cover with plastic wrap.
Use staggered
arrangement of foods,
placing food on right side
of shelf and left side of floor. Microwave at High
(10), reversing position of foods (top to bottom) after
half of time. Also, heat several small bowls of
leftovers this way, stirring and reversing positions
after half of time.
Two frozen individual
entrees (5 to 7 oz. each)
or two TV dinners (10
to 12 oz. each) can be
ready to serve at the
same time. Remove
trays of food from their
boxes and turn back one corner of the plastic cover to
vent. If there are foil covers, remove them and return
the trays of food to their boxes. (Batter foods should
be removed from the trays and cooked conventionally.)
Place in oven with one TV dinner or entree on right
side of the shelf and the second dinner or entree on
left side of the floor. Microwave at High (10) for 6
minutes. Reverse positions (top to bottom) and rotate
foods 1/2 turn. Continue microwaving at High (10)
for 6 minutes. Check dinners for heating. If one dinner
seems less done than desired, return it to the box and
continue heating on floor 1 to 2 more minutes.
How to Heat or Reheat Several Different Types of Food Together
When heating several different types of food
together, foods which must be served hot must
be placed on the oven shelf, while foods which are
only warmed should be placed on the floor. This is
because microwave energy enters the oven from the
top only. Also, it is important to remember that foods
absorb microwave energy at different rates. Rates
can be affected by the size of the food and its
starting temperature.
Because of the varying rates, you may need to start
reheating larger or more dense foods a few minutes
ahead of time, then add smaller or less dense foods.
Alternately, if one of the foods you are heating seems
underheated but the others are heated satisfactorily, let
the underheated food continue cooking.
Heat or reheat different types of food at High (10).
To determine heating times, add times for all foods
together. After half of the time, stir or rearrange foods
(do not reverse positions). Check foods (floor
especially) after 3/4 of total time and remove any
which are done. Continue cooking others.
Place on shelf large or
more dense foods
which need the most
heating, such as leftover
fried chicken, casseroles
of canned or leftover
vegetables, rice or pasta.
Place on the oven floor
those foods which need only be warmed, such as
bakery pies, rolls, muffins or breads.
USING YOUR LOWER OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how
to set them properly.
2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing
them properly to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven.
NOTE:
• You may notice a “burning” or “oily” smell the first
few times you turn your oven on. This is normal in a
new oven and will disappear in a short time. To
speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a
minimum of three hours. See the Operating the Self-
Cleaning Oven section.
• A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
Shelf Positions
The oven has four shelf supports identified in this
illustration as A (bottom), B, C and D (top).
Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the
Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.
Oven Light Oven Vent Duct
The light comes on automatically when the door is
opened and turns off when the door is closed.
Use the OVEN LIGHT pad on the lower
oven control panel to turn the light on
when the door is closed.
NOTE: The oven light will turn off automatically and
cannot be turned on during the self-clean function.
The oven is vented through a duct that’s located on
the left side of the oven just above the door. Moisture
and vapors from the oven are vented through it when
the oven is in use. Never cover the hole in the duct.
To do so prevents it from functioning properly during
cooking and cleaning.
OVEN
LIGHT
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that
when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they
will stop before coming completely out from the
oven, and will not tilt when removing food from or
placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware
on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.
This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove a shelf from the
oven, pull the shelf toward
you, tilt the front end
upward and pull the shelf
out.
To replace, place the shelf
on the shelf support with the
stop-locks (curved extension
of the shelf) facing up and
toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and push
the shelf toward the back of the oven until it goes past
the bump on the shelf support. Then lower the front of
the shelf and push it all the way back.

cooking center gets hot too.
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven
shelf or shelves in
the desired locations
while the oven is
cool. The correct
shelf position
depends on the kind
of food and the
browning desired.
As a general rule,
place most foods in the middle of the oven, on either
shelf positions B or C. See the chart for suggested
shelf positions.

Preheating
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat
10 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the
food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent
heat from escaping.
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat means
bringing the oven up to the specified temperature
before putting the food in the oven. To preheat, set the
oven at the correct temperature—selecting a higher
temperature does not shorten preheat time.
34
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
1. Press the BAKE pad.
2. Press the number pads in the order that you read
them to enter the desired temperature. The
temperature you set should then show in the display.
3.
Press the START pad. When the oven starts to heat,
the words “BAKE” and “TEMP” and the changing
temperature, starting at 100°F., will be displayed. When
the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will
sound and “PrE” (preheating) flashes in the display.
The display then shows the set temperature continuously.
4. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finished
and then remove the food from the oven.
NOTE:
• You may set the timer to the desired cooking time.
See the Oven Control, Clock and Timer section.
• A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during the bake
cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the appropriate
number pads to set the new temperature.
35
Baking Pans Pan Placement
Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
• Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
• Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking
in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to
be reduced 25°F.
• If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find
that you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F.
to prevent overbrowning.
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to 1
1
⁄
2
-inch space between pans as
well as from the back of the oven, the door and the
sides. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans
so one is not directly above the other.
Baking
Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover a
shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results, use only one cookie sheet in the oven
at a time.
Pies Cakes
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet
for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away
from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended.

Aluminum Foil Don’t Peek
Never entirely cover
a shelf with
aluminum foil. This
will disturb the heat
circulation and result
in poor baking. A
smaller sheet of foil
may be used to catch
a spillover by
placing it on a lower
shelf several inches
below the food.
Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do
not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as “bake 30-40 minutes.”
DO NOT open the door to check until the minimum
time. Opening the oven door frequently during cooking
allows heat to escape and makes baking times longer.
Your baking results may also be affected.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
The oven will turn on immediately and cook for a
selected length of time. At the end of Cook Time,
the oven will turn off automatically.
1. Press the COOK TIME pad.
NOTE: If your recipe requires
preheating, you may need to add
additional time to the length of the
Cook Time.
2. Press the number pads until the desired length of
baking time is displayed.
3. Press the BAKE pad.
4. Press the number pads until the desired temperature
is displayed in the lower left display.
The words “TIME BAKE” and “COOK TIME”
will be displayed along with the oven temperature
you set and the cook time that you entered.
5. Press the START pad. The display shows the time
of day, the oven temperature that you set and the
Cook Time that you entered counting down.
6. The oven will continue to cook for the programmed
amount of time, then shut off automatically.
7. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad to turn the
oven off and to clear the display if
necessary. Remove the food from the
oven. Remember, foods that are left in
the oven continue cooking after the
controls are off.
NOTE: Foods that spoil easily such as milk, eggs,
fish, stuffings, poultry and pork should not be allowed
to sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.

ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT
DO IT YOURSELF!
You may find that your new oven cooks differently
than the one it replaced. We recommend that you
use your new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it, following the times given in your
recipes as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot or too cold,
you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think
it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If
you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make
it hotter.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,
to check the temperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
To Adjust the Thermostat:
1. Press the BAKE pad.
2.
Select an oven temperature between 500°F. and 550°F.
3. Immediately, before “ON” appears, press and hold
the BAKE pad for about 4 seconds. The time
display will change to the oven adjustment display.
4. The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+)
35°F. hotter or (–) 35°F. cooler. Press the 1 pad to
increase the temperature in 5 degree increments.
Press the 0 pad to decrease the temperature in 5
degree increments.
5. When you have made the adjustment,
press the START pad to go back to
the time of day display. Use your
oven as you would normally.
NOTE:
• This adjustment will not affect the Broiling or Self-
Cleaning temperatures. It will be retained in memory
after a power failure.
• Pressing the CLEAR/OFF pad or any function pad
while in the adjust thermostat mode will cancel the
mode and any changes made to the thermostat will
not be saved.

ROASTING
Roasting is cooking by 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. Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking
or Timed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking
sound, indicating the oven is working properly.)
Timed Baking will turn the oven on automatically.
Most meats continue to cook after being removed
from the oven. The internal temperature will rise 5 to
10 degrees F. during the recommended standing time
of 10 to 20 minutes. This allows roasts to firm up and
makes them easier to carve. To compensate for this
rise in temperature you may want to remove the roast
sooner (at 5 to 10 degrees less than shown in the
Roasting Guide).
Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot
oven and therefore should be removed when the
desired internal temperature has been reached.
1. Place the shelf in 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. (The broiler pan
with rack is a good pan for this.)
3. Press the BAKE pad.
4. Press the number pads until the desired
temperature is displayed.
5. Press the START pad. When the oven starts to heat,
the words “BAKE” and “TEMP” and the changing
oven temperature, starting at 100°F., will be
displayed. When the oven reaches the temperature
you set, a tone will sound.
6. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when
roasting is finished.
NOTE:
• A fan may automatically turn on and off to cool
internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during roasting,
press the BAKE pad and then the number pads to
get the new temperature.

ROASTING WITH THE PROBE
See the Roasting Guide.
Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe
NOTE: The temperature probe serves both the lower
oven and the microwave oven.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal
food temperature is the best test for doneness. The
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting
by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
When the internal temperature of the food reaches the
temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.
The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at
one end and a plug at the other end that goes into the
outlet on the oven wall.
Use the handles of the probe and plug when
inserting and removing them from the meat and
wall outlet. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable
when removing the probe—they might damage it.
TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE
SURE FOOD IS COMPLETELY DEFROSTED
BEFORE INSERTING.
Plug
Probe
Handles

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or
on the broiler pan rack, follow these steps for proper
probe placement.
1. Lay the probe on the
outside of the meat
along the top or side
and mark with your
finger where the edge of
the meat comes to on
the probe. Point should
rest in the center of the
thickest meaty part of
the roast.
2. Insert the probe into the
meat up to the point
marked off with your
finger. It should not
touch bone, fat or
gristle.
No more than
two inches of the probe,
not counting the handle,
should be left exposed
outside the meat.
Ham or Lamb Poultry Casseroles or Fish
Insert probe into cut end, meatiest
part of ham or lamb without a
bone. For bone-in ham or lamb,
insert probe into center of lowest
large muscle or joint.
Insert probe into meatiest part of
inner thigh from below and parallel
to the leg of a whole turkey.
Insert probe into center of dishes
such as meat loaf or casseroles.
When cooking fish, insert probe
from just above gill into meatiest
area, parallel to backbone.

7. Press the START pad.
The lower left display shows the set food
temperature, and the lower right display shows the
actual food temperature starting at 85°F.
8. When the internal temperature of
meat reaches the number you have
set, the probe and the oven turn off
and the oven control signals. Press
the CLEAR/OFF pad. Use hot
pads to remove the probe from
the food. Do not use tongs to pull
on it–they might damage it.
CAUTION: To prevent possible burns, do not unplug
the probe from the outlet until the oven has cooled.
Do not store the probe in the oven.
NOTE:
• If the probe is removed from the food before the
final temperature is reached, a tone will sound and
the display will flash until the probe is removed.
• You will not be able to use the probe in the lower

(continued)
Questions and Answers
Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a
meat thermometer?
A. Checking the finished internal temperature at
the completion of cooking time is recommended.
Temperatures are shown in the Roasting Guide.
For roasts over 8 lbs., check with thermometer
at half-hour intervals after half the cooking time
has passed.
Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to
carve it?
A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to
20 minutes after removing them from the oven.
Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.
Q. Do I need to preheat my oven each time I cook
a roast or poultry?
A. It is not necessary to preheat your oven. Preheat
only for very small roasts, which cook in a short
length of time.
Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips
that would help me cook it more evenly?
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,
or buy rolled roasts.
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when
roasting a turkey?
A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving it
unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown
the meat.
ROASTING GUIDE
Frozen Roasts
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started
without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per
pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for
roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).
Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting.
Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly.
Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked
successfully without thawing. Follow the directions
given on the package label.

BROILING
Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from
the upper broil element in the oven. Most fish and tender
cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to
keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.
Turn the food using tongs only once during the broiling.
Time the foods for the first side according to the Broiling
Guide. Turn the food, then use the times given for the
second side as a guide to the preferred doneness.
Roasting With the Probe Broiling
1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart.
If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving layer
about 1/8 inch thick.
2. Place the meat on the broiler rack in the broiler pan.
Always use the rack so the fat drips into the broiler
pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough
to catch on fire.
3. Position shelf on the recommended shelf position
as suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling
is done on C position, but if your cooking center is
connected to 208 volts, you may wish to use a
higher position.
4. Leave the door open to
the broil stop position. The
door stays open by itself, yet
the proper temperature is
maintained in the oven.
5. Press the BROIL pad. Preheating
the elements is not necessary.
(See the Comments column in the
Broiling Guide.)
6. Tapping the BROIL pad alternates between LO
Broil (450°F.) and HI Broil (550°F.).
7. Press the START pad.
8. When broiling is finished press the CLEAR/OFF
pad. Serve the food immediately, and leave the
pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for
easiest cleaning.
NOTE: Both the lower oven and the microwave fans
may operate during long-term broil. This is normal,
and the fans may continue to run even after the oven
is turned off.
BROIL
Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler rack. However,
you must mold the foil tightly to the rack and cut slits in it just like the rack.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining into the
broiler pan. The juices could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do not
cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler rack to prevent
meat from sticking?
A. No. The broiler rack is designed to reflect broiler
heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to
prevent meat from sticking to the surface.
However, spraying the broiler rack lightly with a
vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make
clean-up easier.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a
rack in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the rack suspends the meat over the
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan,
thus keeping the meat drier. Juices are protected by
the rack and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive
spatter and smoking.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to
evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Piercing
meat with a fork also allows juices to escape. Turn
meat with tongs instead of a fork.
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as
they should?
A. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the cooking
center may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil
element for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan
with food in the oven. Check to see if you are using
the recommended shelf position. Broil for longest
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn the food only once during broiling. You may
need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
(continued next page)
Questions and Answers
BROILING GUIDE
• Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
• The oven door should be open to the broil
stop position.
• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty edges
hang over the sides because the dripping fat will soil
the oven.
• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling,
or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only.
• The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat
if desired.
• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops thoroughly without over browning them.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1

OPERATING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN
Normal Cleaning Time: 3 hours
Before a Clean Cycle
1. Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware
and any aluminum foil from the oven—they can’t
withstand the high cleaning temperatures.
NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken,
lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the
shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning
to make shelves slide more easily.
2. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. If you
use soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning
to prevent staining.
3. Clean spatters or soil on the oven front frame and
the oven door outside the gasket with a dampened
cloth. The oven front frame and the oven door
outside the gasket do not get cleaned by the self-
clean cycle. On these areas, use detergent and hot
water or a soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse well
with a vinegar and water solution. This will help
prevent a brown residue from forming when the
oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth.
Do not clean the gasket.
Clean the top, sides and outside front of the oven
door with soap and water. Also use soap and water
to clean under the oven vent grille. Do not use
abrasives or oven cleaners.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—
the fiberglass material of the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact
and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for
energy-efficient oven operation and good baking
results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn,
frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become
displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.
Do not let water run down through openings in
the top of the door. To help prevent water from
getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door
as far as it will go.
4. Close the oven door. The door latches
automatically after the clean cycle is set.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.
A combination of any of these products plus the
high clean-cycle temperature may damage the
porcelain finish of the oven.
Important
The oven door must be closed and all controls must
be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Questions and Answers
Q. If my oven clock is not set to the correct time of
day, can I still self-clean my oven?
A. If the clock is not set to the correct time of day
you will not be able to set a delay clean to end at a
specific time.
Q. Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any part
of my self-cleaning oven?
A. No cleaners or coatings should be used around
any part of this oven. If you do use them and do
not thoroughly rinse the oven with water, wiping it
absolutely clean afterwards, the residue can scar
the oven surface and damage metal parts the next
time the oven is automatically cleaned.
Q. What should I do if excessive smoking occurs
during cleaning?
A. This is caused by excessive soil. Turn the oven off.
Open the windows to rid the room of smoke. Wait
until the oven has cooled and the word “LOCK” is
off in the display. Wipe up the excess soil and reset
the clean cycle.
Q. Is the “crackling” or “popping” sound I hear
during cleaning normal?
A. Yes. This is the sound of the metal heating
and cooling during both the cooking and
cleaning functions.
Q. Should there be any odor during the cleaning?
A. Yes, there will be an odor during the first few
cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might
also cause a strong odor when cleaning.
Q. What causes the hair-like lines on the enameled
surface of my oven?
A. This is a normal condition, resulting from heating
and cooling during cleaning. These lines do not
affect how your oven performs.
Q. Why do I have ash left in my oven
after cleaning?
A. Some types of soil will leave a deposit which
is ash. It can be removed with a damp sponge
or cloth.
Q. My oven shelves do not slide easily. What is
the matter?
A. After many cleanings, the oven shelves will lose
their luster and become hard to slide. To make the
shelves slide more easily, wipe the shelf supports
with cooking oil.
Q. My oven shelves have become gray after the
self-clean cycle. Is this normal?
A. Yes. After the self-clean cycle, the shelves will
lose some luster and discolor to a deep gray color.

CARE AND CLEANING
Proper care and cleaning are important so your cooking center will give
you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in
caring for it to help assure safe and proper maintenance.
BE SURE ELECTRIC POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY
PART OF THE COOKING CENTER.
Control Panel
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each
use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and
water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a
soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven cleansers
on the control panel—they will damage the finish.
A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.
Microwave Oven
Outside
• Clean the outside of the microwave oven with
soap and a damp cloth, then rinse with a damp
cloth and dry. Wipe the window clean with a damp
cloth. Chrome is best wiped with a damp cloth and
then with a dry towel.
Inside
• Keep the microwave oven clean and sweet-smelling.
Opening the oven door a few minutes after cooking
helps air out the interior. An occasional thorough
wiping with a solution of baking soda and water
keeps the interior fresh.
• Spills and spatters are easy to remove from walls
and floor. That’s because there’s little heat except
in the food, or sometimes in the cookware. Some
spatters wipe up with a paper towel, some may
require a damp cloth. Remove greasy spatters with
a sudsy cloth, then rinse and dry.
Wipe up spatters on the window on the inside
of the door daily. When the window is soiled, wash
it with a damp cloth. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Wipe metal and plastic parts on the inside of the
door frequently. Use a damp cloth to remove all soil.
Do not use abrasives, such as cleaning powders or
steel and plastic pads. They may mar the surface.
Door Surface
• When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that
come together on closing the door, use only mild,
non-abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a
sponge or soft cloth.
If you use a Brown ’N Sear Dish:
• Use Bon Ami
®
brand cleanser. High heat generated
on the bottom of the Brown ’N Sear Dish can cause
stains to bake onto the oven floor if grease is present.
These may be removed with Bon Ami
®
brand
cleanser. After using this cleanser, rinse and dry
thoroughly, following cleanser instructions carefully.
DO NOT USE A COMMERCIAL OVEN
CLEANER ON ANY PART OF YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN.

CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
Microwave Oven Light
To replace microwave oven light, first disconnect
power at main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
1. Remove grill above microwave oven. To do so,
open microwave oven door, then remove the two
screws from the bottom of the grill.
2. Remove the light cover by removing the
two screws.
3. Remove the tape around the base of the light. The
tape is there to prevent the light from loosening
during shipment and door closings. Removing the
tape might be difficult.
4. Unscrew the bulb carefully. Use a cloth to protect
your hands in case the glass breaks.
NOTE: The light bulb is not standard. Replace it with
a similar 125-volt, 20-watt bulb, which is available
from your GE supplier.
5. Screw replacement bulb into socket and replace
light cover and grill. Reconnect power to
cooking center.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.
Broil Element
Bake Element
Probe
The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap and
water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the
temperature probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn
spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.
Do not immerse the temperature probe in water. Do
not store the temperature probe in the oven.

Care and Cleaning
Lift-Off Oven Door Lower Oven
The oven door is removable,
but it is heavy. You may need
help removing and replacing
the door. Do not lift the door by
the handle. This can cause the
glass to break or can cause
damage to the door.
To remove the door, open it a
few inches to the special stop
position that will hold the door
open. Grasp firmly on each side
and lift the door straight up and
off the hinges.
NOTE:
• Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and
the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back
and pinch fingers.
• While working in the oven area, cover the hinges
with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent
pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel
on the frame.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the
special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom
of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the
door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same
time. If hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull
them back out.
TO CLEAN THE DOOR:
Inside of the door:
• Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during
the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by
hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.
• The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a
soap-filled scouring pad.
• Do not rub or clean the door gasket—the fiberglass
material of the gasket has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting
oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient
oven operation and good baking results. If you
notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged
in any way or if it has become displaced on the door,
you should have it replaced.
NOTE: The gasket is designed with a gap at the
bottom to allow for proper air circulation.
Outside of the door:
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,
sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the
outside of the door.
• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces
and basting materials containing acids may cause
discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.
When surface is cool, clean and rinse.
• Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders or
harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
Inside Gasket
Gasket
Outside Gasket
Oven Shelves Lower Oven
Clean the shelves with a mild abrasive cleanser.
After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and
dry with a clean cloth.
To remove heavy, burned-on soil, use soapy metal
pads. After scrubbing, wash with soapy water, rinse
and dry.
The oven shelves may be cleaned in self cleaning
oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and
become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf supports with
cooking oil after self-cleaning to make shelves slide
more easily.

CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
Broiler Pan and Rack Lower Oven
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven.
Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully pour out the
grease in the pan into a proper container. Wash and
rinse the broiler pan and rack in hot soapy water with
a soap-filled scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack with detergent
while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth.
Soaking the pan will remove burned on foods.
Both the broiler pan and rack can be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and rack can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack in the oven.
Do not clean the broiler pan or rack in the self-
cleaning oven.
Light Replacement Lower Oven
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,
disconnect the electric power for your cooking
center at the main fuse or circuit breaker.
Be sure to let the light cover and light bulb cool
completely before removing or replacing them. When
in use, light bulbs can become warm enough to break
if touched with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning,
avoid touching warm light bulbs with cleaning cloths
if the light cover is removed.
The oven light bulb is covered with a removable glass
cover which is held in place with a wire. Remove the
oven door, if desired, to reach the cover easily.
To remove:
• Hold your hand under the
cover so it doesn’t fall
when released. With
fingers of the same hand,
firmly push back the wire
until it clears the cover.
Lift off the cover.
DO NOT REMOVE ANY
SCREWS.
• Replace bulb with 40-watt home appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
• Place it into the groove of the light receptacle. Pull
the wire forward to the center of cover until it snaps
in place. When in place, the wire holds the cover
firmly. Be certain the wire is in the depression in the
center of the cover.
• Connect electric power to the cooking center.
Metal Parts Glass Window
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or
commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces;
wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.
To clean the outside of the oven window, use a glass
cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down
inside openings in the glass while cleaning.
