IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The Californb Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
Californb to publish a list of substances known
to the state to cause cancer, 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.

Typeof Margarine Wi// Affect Baking Performance!
Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not
give the same results as with a higher
fat preduct.
Recipefailurecanresultffcakes,pies,pastries,
cookiesorcandiesaremadewith low fat spreads.
Thelowerthefatcontentera spreadproduct,the
morenot/2eab/ethesedifferencesbecome.
Federal stnndards require products labeled
"margarine" to contain at least 80% fi_t by
weight. Low-fia spreads, o1, the other band,
contain less ti_t and more water. The high
moisture content of these spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best results with your old fiivofite recipes,
use maigafine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% _vgetable oil
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the redpe calls fiw it.
To preheat, set the o\vn at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessaiw fllr
good results when baldng cakes, cookies,
past U and breads.
Forovens without a preheat/hd/kator I/_Thtor tone,
preheat 10mlbutes.
Onsome models, the display will show "PRE"
while preheatlbg. When the ovenreachesthe
selected temperature,the ovencontrol will beep
and the displaywill show the oven temperature.
Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in the o_ en as llltlch as
possible. Pans sh(mld not touch each other
or the walls el the o\vn. If v(/u need to use
two shelves, stagger the pans so ()lie is not
direcdy abo\v the ethel; and leave
appro_mately 1½" Kern the fl'ont of the
pan to the fl'ont of the shell
Cut slits in the foil just like risegrid.
Aluminum loft
Never cover the oven bottom with
aluminum foil.
You can use aluminum fidl to line the
broiler pan and bH)iler grid. Howe\vl;
you must mokl the filil tightly to the
grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
_Mmninmn fi)il may also be used to catch
a spillovel: To do so, place a small sheet (If
fi)il on a lower sheff several inches below
the fl)od.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
fi)il. This will distt/rb the heat drculation
and result in pool baking.
Leave the door open to the broil stop
position. The door stays open by itself,
yet the proper temperature is
maintained in the oven,

Careandcleaningof the range.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
If your range is removed for cleaning,
servicing or any reason, be sure the
anti-tip device is re-engaged properly
when the range is replaced. Failure
to take this precaution could result in
tipping of the range and cause injury.
Oven Interior (non-serfdean models)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
finish on the inside of the oven--top,
bottom, sides, back and inside el the
deep--will stay new-looldng for yem_.
Let tile range cool before cleaning. We
recommend that w)u wear robber glo\vs
when cleaning the range.
Soap and water will hero, ally do the job.
Heaw spattering or spillo\vt's may require
deaning with a mild abrasi_v cleanee
Soap-tilled scotllJng pads may also be tlsed.
Do not allow food spills with a high
sugar or acid content (suchas milk,
tomatoes,sauerkraut, fruit juiCesor
pie filhng) to remab on the surface. Theymay
causea dull spot even aMr clean/bg.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier: Place 1/2 cup in a
shallow glass or potte W container in a cold

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
-4,CAUTION: Forpersonalsafety,
do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. Remove house fuse or open circuit
breaker before beginning installation.
This appliance must be supplied with the
proper voltage and frequency, and connected
to an individual properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse
having amperage as specified on the rating
plate. The rating plate is located behind the
storage drawer or warming drawer on the
oven frame.
Location of
model rating
plate
We recommend you have the electrical wiring
and hookup of your range connected by a
qualified electrician. After installation, have
the electrician show you where your main
range disconnect is located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical
codes which apply in your area. Failure to
wire your oven according to governing codes
could result in a hazardous condition. If there
are no local codes, your range must be wired
and fused to meet the requirements of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70--
Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code requires that new construction
(not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection
to an electric range.
When installing an electric range in new
construction, follow Steps 3 and 5 for 4-wire
connection.
You must use a 3-wire, single-phase A.C.
208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Vok, 60 hertz
electrical system. If you connect to aluminum
wiring, properly installed connectors
approved for use with aluminum wiring
must be used.
If the electrical service provided does not
meet the above specifications, have a
licensed electrician install an approved outlet.
'36
ALL NEW CONSTRUCTIONS,
MOBILE HOMES AND
INSTALLATIONS WHERE
LOCAL CODES DO NOT
ALLOW GROUNDING
THROUGH NEUTRAL
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor
UL-listed range cord. These cords may be
provided with ring terminals on wire and
a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250
minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp
range cord is not recommended but if used, it
should be marked for use with nominal 1%"
diameter connection openings. Care should
be taken to center the cable and strain relief
within the knockout hole to keep the edge
from damaging the cable.
Because range terminals are not accessible
after range is in position, flexible service
conduit or cord must be used.
NOTE: If conduit is being used, go to Step 3D
and then to Step 6 or 7.
• On some models, a filter capacitor may be
connected between the black and white
leads on the junction block.
