Before Your First Use
Oven Burn-Off Procedure
Important: Before you use the range, it is essential that
you complete the oven burn-off procedure. This
procedure will take 90 minutes to complete and will
remove all factory oils and residue from its internal parts.
During this process, you may notice a strong odor, some
smoke, and/or condensation on the front of the oven
(including the oven doors, control panel, and side
panels) as any oils and solvents on internal parts are
burned off. This is normal and is the primary reason for
this burn-off. Failure to complete this procedure before
rst using the oven may result in undesirable odors,
avors, and excessive smoke,
Note: For documentation purposes, touch screen
control illustrations are for the BSDF48/BSDF60 range.
Instructions apply to all ranges unless otherwise noted.
1. Take out the oven racks and temperature probe (if
necessary).
2. Tap Clean on the Select Mode screen.
3. Tap Start on the Select Clean screen to start the
cleaning cycle, which will take 90 minutes.
4. The Cleaning in Progress timer will start counting
down from “1:30”. You can tap OFF at any time to
stop the process.
5. When the time is up, you will hear a tone to indicate
the Clean cycle is complete. The oven will still be hot
at this point.
6. Wait for the oven to cool completely before you put
back the oven racks.
Griddle Season Procedure (select models)
Important: You must season your griddle before your
rst use. The seasoning process prevents food from
sticking and the surface from rusting. This procedure will
take about an hour and a half and you will need to stay
and monitor the griddle during this time as the griddle
will get very hot!
1. Wipe off any factory oils and residue with a soft
cloth.
2. Use a dry cotton towel to apply a light coat of high
smoke point oil to the griddle’s cooking surface. The
smoke point of the oil must be over 450°F (232°C).
3. Use a different dry cotton towel to wipe away excess
oil.
4. Push in and turn the griddle burner control knob left
to 300°F (149°C) setting and wait 30 minutes.
4. After 30 minutes, use a dry cotton towel to remove
the excess oil from the griddle’s surface.
5. Use another clean, dry cotton towel to apply another
coat of oil to the griddle’s surface.
6. Turn the griddle knob to 325°F (163°C), then wait 15
minutes.
7. Turn the griddle knob to 350°F (177°C), then wait 15
minutes.
8. Turn the griddle knob to 375°F (191°C), then wait 15
minutes.
9. Turn the griddle burner knob back to OFF and using
extreme care, use a clean, dry cotton towel to
remove any excess oil while the griddle is hot.
Your griddle is now ready for use. After seasoning, with
time and use, your griddle will darken and develop a
normal, rich blue/black patina color.
