Operation
Oven Vent
•Do not block the ducts at the rear of the range when cooking in the oven. It is important that the ow of hot air from
the oven and fresh air into the oven burner never be interrupted. Avoid touching the vent opening or nearby surfaces
during oven or broiler operation – they may become hot.
Oven Operation
Bake
The BAKE mode is used to prepare a variety of food using heated air in the oven. Refer to recipes from cookbooks and
food websites or packaging directions for oven temperature settings, preheat and baking times.
Rotate the Oven Temperature Control Knob to the recommended temperature setting. The Oven Cycle Light shall turn on
to indicate oven is in operation. In PREHEAT, the upper and lower heating elements shall turn on and off, intermittently. The
Oven Cycle Light shall turn off when the temperature is reached.
Keep the oven door closed to minimize heat loss. Use the oven light switch to turn on the oven light and see the inside of
oven without opening door.
Convection Bake
Heat is transferred from the lower heating element located in the bottom of the oven cavity. The convection fan in the rear
of the oven then circulates it. This convection process provides more even heat distribution throughout the oven cavity.
Multiple rack use is possible for large baking jobs. Convection cooking is faster, can be accomplished at lower
temperatures and provides more even temperatures than regular cooking.
To use convection, follow the steps similar to standard BAKE, then press the convection fan switch to ON position.
Keep the oven door closed to minimize heat loss. Use the oven light switch to turn on the oven light and see the inside of
oven without opening door. For best result, use shallow uncovered pans and cookie sheet without sides.
WARNING:
Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum
foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil lining may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard. Do not use Aluminum Foil on any porcelain surface.
Doing so will cause damage to the porcelain, affecting the life of the porcelain.
DANGER:
Before using the appliance for the first time – it is recommended that the oven be turned on to burn off the
manufacturing oils. Set the oven control knob to 450˚F (230˚C) and let the oven run for 20 to 30 minutes. Then turn the

the kitchen.
Turn off appliances when done. Please note that the cooling fan shall continue to run until such time that the oven has
cooled down. This is normal oven operation.
