Oven mitts may be needed to handle the

cookware.

[] Do not use recycled paper products.

Recycled paper towels, napkins and

waxed paper can contain metal flecks

which may cause arcing or ignite. Paper

products containing nylon or nylon

filoments should be avoided, as they may

also ignite.

[] Use foil only as directed in this manual.

When using foil in the oven, keep the foil

at least 1" away from the sides of the

oveR,

[]

Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

If you use a meat thermometer while

cooking, make sure it is sole for use in

microwave ovens.

[] Some foam trays (like those that meat

is packaged on) have a thin strip of

metal embedded in the bottom. When

microwaved, the metul con burn the floor

of the oven or ignite a paper towel.

[] Paper towels, waxed paper and plustic

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.

[] Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use

in microwave ovens. Check the package

for proper use.

[] "Boilable" cooking pouches and tightly

closed plastic bogs should be slit, pierced

or vented as directed by package. If

they ore not, plastic could burst during

or immediately offer 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.

[] 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.

Follow these guidelines:

1. Use microwave-safe plastics only

and use them in strict compliance

with the cookware manufacturer's

recommendations.

2. Do not microwave empty containers.

3. Do not permit children to use plastic

cookware without complete supervision.

necked bottles (especially carbonated

beverages). Even if the container is open,

pressure can build up. This can cause the

container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta)

may tend to boil more rapidly than foods

containing less moisture. Should this

occur, refer to the Care and Cleaning of

the oven section for instructions on how

to clean the inside of the oven.

m Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be

careful when opening any containers of

hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking

tips

[] Foods frozen in paper or plastic can

be time defrosted in the package,

but foods should be taken out of

the package when using DEFROST

BY FOOD TYPE Closed packages

should be slit, pierced or vented

after food has partially defrosted.

Plastic storage containers should be

partially uncovered.

[] Family-size, prepackaged frozen

dinners can be defrosted and

microwaved. If the food is in a

foil container, transfer it to a

microwave-safe dish.

[]

Foods that spoil easily should not

be allowed to sit out for more than

one hour after defrosting, Room

temperature promotes the growth

of harmful bacteria,

[] For more even defrosting of larger

foods, such as roasts, use DEFROST

BY TIME Be sure large meats

are completely defrosted before

cooking.

[] When defrosted, food should be

cool but softened in all areas. If still

slightly icy, return to the microwave

very briefly, or let it stand a few

minutes.

Cooking Modes Loweroven

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.

Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform

differently than the oven it is replacing.

Baking and Roasting Modes

Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the

type and quantity of food you are preparing. When

preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and

pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe

recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines

are provided, center food in the oven.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack

cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower

element but also from the upper element to cook

food. To use this mode, press the Bake pad, enter a

temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is generally

recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake 1 Rack

The Convection Bake 1 Rack mode is intended for

single rack cooking. This mode uses heat from the

lower element and also the upper and rear elements,

along with air movement from the convection fan to

enhance evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto

Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the

temperature when using this mode. To use this mode

press the Convection Bake (1 Rack/Multi) pad, enter

a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is

generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake Multi Rack

The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended

for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This

mode uses heat primarily from the rear element but

also heat from the upper and lower elements, along

with air movement from the convection fan to enhance

cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto

Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the

temperature when using this mode. Baking time might

be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be

expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the

Convection Bake (1 Rack/Multi) Multi Rack pad twice,

enter a temperature, and then press Start. Always

preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting

whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses heat

from the lower, upper, and rear elements along with air

movement from the convection fan to improve browning

and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to convert

temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe suggested

time when using this mode, or use a meat probe. To use

this mode press the Convection Roast pad, enter a

temperature, and then press Start. It is not necessary to

preheat when using this mode.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in

this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while

broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack

positions as placing food closer to the broil element

increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility

of fats igniting. Broiling on rack position 6 is not

recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust

rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the

food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a

seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods

and foods that need to be cooked through should be

broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by

using Broil Lo. For best performance center food below

the broil heating element.

Broil Hi

The Traditional Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from

the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner

cuts of meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the

interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and

then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when

using this mode.

Broil Lo

The Traditional Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from

the upper element to cook food thoroughly while also

producing surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts

of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked all the

way through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice

and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when

using this mode.

Proof

Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and

proofing) bread doughs. Press the Proof pad and then

press Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out.

Bread will rise more rapidly than at room temperature.

Note that for double wall ovens, proof can not be run

when running a clean mode in the lower oven.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to

3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then

press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and

do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not

required not use warm to heat cold food other than crisping

crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also recommended that

food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.

Oven Racks

Your oven has six rack positions. Recommended rack

positions for various types of foods are provided in the

Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to

impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer

darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving

food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too

brown on top try moving them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks,

ensure there is at least 1½" between pans to allow

sufficient space for air to flow.

Oven Racks

Your oven may have extension racks and/or traditional

flat racks.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired

position before you turn the oven on.

Extension Racks

Extension racks have an install feature that locks into the

rack supports (guides) on both sides. Once the install

feature is locked into place, always pull the rack out,

by its upper front rail, to its full extension stop position,

when placing or removing cookware.

If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the

racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your

oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in

the slide tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite

lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom

tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the

rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

To order additional graphite lubricant, read the

Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of

this manual.

Remove An Extension Rack:

Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the

oven.

2. Grasp the rack by both its upper front rail and its

lower handles on two sides and lift straight up to

unlock the rack from the rack supports.

3. Firmly holding onto both the upper front rail and lower

handles on both sides, pull the rack forward. Grasp the

rack on both sides if necessary. Then remove it from

the oven.

To Replace An Extension Rack:

1. Place the rear portion of the rack onto the rack

supports (guides) as shown in the picture.

2. Hold the upper front rail and lower handles and push

the rack all the way in until the install feature locks

into the front rack support.

If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe

the oven rack supports with cooking oil. Do not wipe oil

on the rack slides.

To Remove a Rack

Pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To Replace a Rack

Tilt the front of the rack up, hook the rear locating posts

under the rack supports, push the rack back (past the

stop-locks) and lower it into position. Push the rack all

the way in.

If fiat racks are difficult to slide and/or remove, place

some cooking oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub

onto the sides of the rack and each rack support.

A CAUTION: Use caution when removing a rack from lowest position as door may be hot.

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

^-_CAUTION: Donotuseanytypeoffo,oroven.nettocovertheovenbottomTheseitemscarl trap

heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use

of these items is not covered by the product warranty.

Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more

foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2" from oven walls

to prevent poor heat circulation.

Cookware

Cookware Guidelines

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking

performance.

Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily

than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more

readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.

If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier

than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are

obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing

oven temperature by 25 ° F next time.

Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked

goods such as cakes and cookies.

Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.

These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies

and custards.

Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom

browning.

Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Care and Cleaning

Upper Oven

Cooking trays

and baking

sheet

To prevent breakage, allow the trays to

cool completely before cleaning. Wash

carefully in warm, sudsy water or in

the dishwasher.

Do not use metal scouring pads or

abrasives, as they may damage the

finish. A soap-filled scouring pad may

be used to clean the trays.

Clear glass tray for

microwaving

Non-stick metal tray for

speedcooking

Put food directly on the

aluminum baking sheet on

the wire oven rack, and

place them on the non-

stick metal tray, when

baking on two levels,

broiling or toasting foods.

How to clean

the outside

We recommend against using

cleaners with ammonia or alcohol,

as they can damage the appearance

of the oven. ff you choose to use a

common household cleaner, first

app,_ the cleaner directly to a clean

cloth, then wipe the soiled area.

Case

Clean the outside with a sudsy cloth.

Rinse and then dry. Wipe the window

clean with a damp cloth.

Glass Control Panel and Door

Wipe with a clean damp sponge.

Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning

sprays, large amounts of soap and

water, abrasives or sharp objects on

the panel-they can damage it.

Door Seal

It's important to keep the area

clean where the door seals against

the oven. Use only mild, nonabrasive

detergents applied with a clean

sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.

Stainless

steel (on

some

models)

To clean the stainless steel surface,

use worm, sudsy water or a stainless

steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe

the surface in the direction of the

grain. Follow the cleaner instructions

for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

To inquire about purchasing stainless

steel appliance cleaner or polish, or to

find the location of a dealer nearest

you, please call our toll-free number,

Care and Cleaning Lo , roven

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

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 cleansers,

plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control

panel--they will damage the finish.

Oven Exterior

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong

liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or

cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven.

Clean with a mild soap and water or vinegar and water

solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at

room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

If stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild

abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and

basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration

and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces

cool, then clean and rinse.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy

water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe

the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner

instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including

stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, read the

Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of

this manual.

Oven Interior

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually

or by using the Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and

basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration

and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces

cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleaners, strong

liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning

powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild

soap and water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with

clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning

surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.

Steam Clean Mode

Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water

and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean.

To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils

from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of

the oven. Close the door. Press the Clean pad twice

and then press Start. The oven door will lock. You can

not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as

this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the

end of the steam clean cycle the door will unlock. Wipe

out any excess water and any remaining soil.

Self Clean Mode

Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the

beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode.

Self clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven

interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature.

Before operating the self clean cycle, wipe up grease and

soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other

than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver racks

and any cookware or other items should all be removed

from the oven before initiating a self-clean cycle. Close

the door. Press the Clean pad once and a default self-

clean time is displayed. The clean time can be changed

to any time between 3:00 and 5:00 hours by using the

number pads to enter a different time and pressing Start.

For heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time

is recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press

the Start pad immediately after pressing the Clean pad.

The oven will turn off automatically when the self clean

cycle is complete. The door will stay locked until the oven

has cooled down. After the oven has cooled down wipe

any ash out of the oven.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely

sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning

cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-

ventilated room.

Oven Racks

The racks that were provided with your oven (dark

enameled racks, not shiny) may remain in the oven

during the self-cleaning cycle without being damaged.

To manually clean racks, use warm, soapy water. Make

sure not to wash the rack slides on an extension rack.

If racks become more difficult to remove from the oven,

put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and

rub onto the oven rack supports. Do not wipe the oil on

an extension rack slide.

Periodically, after several self-clean cycles, the extension

rack slides may need to be lubricated using the graphite

lubricant shipped with your wall oven. To order additional

graphite lubricant read the Assistance and Accessories

sections at the beginning of this manual.

1. Remove extension rack from the oven. See the

Extension Oven Racks section.

2. Fully extend the rack on a table or countertop.

Newspaper may be placed underneath the rack for

easy clean up.

3. If there is debris in the slide tracks, wipe it away

using a paper towel. NOTE: Any graphite lubricant

wiped away must be replaced.

Lower Oven

m i

;Z2

Shake the graphite lubricant before opening it.

Starting with left slide mechanism of the rack, place

four (4) small drops of lubricant on the two (2) bottom

tracks of the slide close to the bearing carriers.

Repeat for the right slide mechanism of the rack.

Open and close the rack several times to distribute

the lubricant.

Replace the cap on the lubricant and shake it again.

Turn the rack over and repeat steps 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Close the rack, turn rack right-side-up and place in

the oven. See the Extension Oven Racks section.

Repeat above steps for each rack.

NOTE: Do not spray with cooking spray or other lubricant

sprays.
