8. Oven Bottom Vent

Cooling Fan

The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run after the oven is off.

Oven Vent

The oven vent is located at the bottom of the unit. Warm air may be released from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent, since it is important for air circulation.

Oven Bottom

The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is protected from damage and spills.

Note:

Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.

CAUTION

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Accessories

Inserting Racks

CAUTION

To avoid burns, place oven racks in desired positions before turning oven on. Always use oven mitts when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let oven mitts contact hot heating elements.

Use caution when removing an oven rack from the lowest rack position to avoid contact with the hot oven door.

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure racks are installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

Flat Rack

The rack is designed with a stop so it will stop before coming completely out of the oven and not tilt.

To insert the flat rack into the oven:

Note: Avoid pushing the rack back forcefully, impacting the rear of the oven cavity. This can cause risk of damage to porcelain coating or to glass covers over light fixtures.

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides.

2. Insert rack (see picture).

3. Tilt rack up (A) to allow the upwardly sloped rear of the rack to slide under the stop molded into the front portion of the rack guide above.

4. When the back of the rack is past this stop, lower the front of the rack to a horizontal position (B) and push it the rest of the way in.

The rack should be straight and flat, not crooked.

To remove the flat rack from the oven:

1. Grasp rack firmly on both sides and pull rack toward you.

2. When the stop is reached, tilt rack up so that the upwardly sloped back of the rack can pass under the stop. Pull the rack the rest of the way out.

Telescopic Rack

To insert the telescopic rack into the oven:

1. Slide the rack in evenly until the rear of the rack is about 2 inches from the back of the oven.

2. Tilt the front of the rack up about three-quarters of an inch (A) and finish pushing the rack all the way back (B).

Note: Avoid striking the oven light cover glass or the back of the oven when pushing the rack into position.

3. The back of the telescopic rack drops into place.

4. Pull the rack forward to engage the bottom of the rack onto the rear of the rack position guide.

5. Lower the front of the rack to finish seating it on the rack guide. The rack should feel stable when properly seated.

6. Slide the movable part of the telescopic rack in and out a few times to make sure it is able to move freely and that the non-moving part of the telescopic rack is securely anchored.

CAUTION

To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure the telescopic rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.

To remove the telescopic rack from the oven:

1. Lift the front of the telescopic rack assembly about 1/2 inch and push the rack to the rear about 3/4 inch. This allows the rack to disengage from the rack position guide.

2. Lift the rear of the telescopic rack assembly so it clears the rack position guide and gently pull the rack from the oven.

Note: Take care to avoid pulling the rack unevenly which will cause it to bind during removal, catching on the oven walls.

Operation

About the Appliance

Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.

The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity. The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.

Thanks to the Self Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self Clean is done.

Clear labeling of the buttons makes operating the oven very easy. This manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.

Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions!

Before Using the Oven for the First Time

• Oven must be properly installed by a qualified technician before use.

• Remove all packing materials from inside and outside the oven.

• While cool, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry.

• There may be a slight odor during first uses; this is normal and will disappear.

• Optimum cooking results depend on proper bakeware being used.

• Read and understand all safety precautions and Use and Care Manual information prior to operating.

Basic Features

Using buttons and Entering Numeric Values

The oven interface is easy to use but requires some awareness of how entries must be made. Follow the procedures below.

Setting the Clock

The oven includes time functions that require the current time to be set. It is therefore important to set the clock before beginning to use the oven. The oven can not be in a cooking mode when setting the clock (oven must be on but with no cooking mode selected).

In the event of a power outage, “12:00” appears in the display. The correct time will need to reset.

To set the clock:

1. The oven must be in Standby mode (oven is powered on, but no cooking mode or timer in operation).

2. To access the clock set mode:

Press the Clock/Timer button. The display shows the option to Set Clock or Set Timer. The “00:00” blinks in the display.

Press the soft key (the small horizontal white outlined rectangle) marked “Set Clock” underneath the down pointing arrow icon ().

Hint: Pressing the “Set Clock “ area of the display will have no effect. Press the small horizontal white outlined rectangle below the prompt.

3. The left and right soft keys allow the user to adjust 1 hour +/- (such as for Daylight Savings Time). Press the center button “Manual Change” to allow the numeric keypad to be used to enter a specific time and to select am or pm.

4. The display shows the reassignment of the soft keys. The left and right buttons show “am” and “pm”. Use the numeric keypad to enter the time in hh:mm, starting with a leading “0” if the hour is less than 10. Note the digits fill from the right, “pushing” the original digits off to the left as new digits are entered. Press the button for “am” or “pm” to complete the time entry and return to the normal operating clock display.

For example, to enter 3:25 pm, press the numeric keypad digits 0,3,2,5 and press the “pm” button. The display returns to the normal clock display.

Hint: If the am/pm setting is already shown correctly, pressing Enter on the numeric button will also save the clock setting and return to the clock display.

5. The clock is now set and running.

Setting the Cooking Mode and Temperature

1. For double oven models, the particular oven must be selected before the cooking mode can be selected. Press the Upper Oven or Lower Oven button to select an oven.

2. Press the desired Cooking Mode button. For example, press the “Bake” button. The cooking mode and default temperature are displayed. The temperature blinks to show it can be edited.

3. Press Enter to start the mode using the default temperature. For modes that require preheating, the preheat indicator progresses until the target temperature is reached.

Note: If a temperature is entered that is not within the allowed range for the mode an error tone will sound and the acceptable temperature range for the mode will display below the temperature entered.

Using the numeric keypad, enter a temperature within the acceptable temperature range. Press Enter to start the mode using the temperature entered.

Heating Time Limitation

The maximum heating time is limited. If you forget to turn off the oven, it turns off automatically after a set period of time (see table below), unless using Oven Timer or Delay Cook.

The maximum time for Sabbath Mode is 74 hours. For all other cooking modes the maximum allowed time depends on the temperature:

Heating stops until a setting is changed.

Timers

Your new oven is equipped with two types of timers.

Kitchen Timer - is a countdown timer that has no affect on oven heating. The kitchen timer is used for general kitchen timing needs.

Oven Timer - is a countdown timer which upon reaching 00:00 turns the oven off, stopping the current mode. The oven timer is used to set how long a mode will run.

To access either type of timer, first select a cooking mode using one of the mode selection buttons.

To set a kitchen timer:

(without a cooking mode)

This is for general kitchen timing needs that do not need to affect oven operation.

For double ovens, first select the Upper or Lower oven. This does not have any affect on the oven stop time. It assigns a position for the kitchen timer in memory so a second kitchen timer can later be started if desired.

1. Select a cooking mode and adjust temperature as desired. Begin cooking mode by pressing Enter. The soft keys at the bottom of the display show Kitchen Timer, Oven Timer and Delay Cook. Select Kitchen Timer.

2. “00:00” is displayed blinking to the left of the mode name. Use the numeric keypad to replace “00:00”with the desired timer value.

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

General Tips

Pan Placement

Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.

Rack Position

Rack positions are numbered from 1 to 6, from bottom to top.

Consult the food cooking charts at the back of this manual for recommended rack positions.

The top rack guide is not used with the cooking racks. Use rack positions 1 through 6 only. The top guide is there only to bracket the rack and prevent it from tipping when inserted in position 6. Inserting a rack onto the top guide would not be stable, since there is no guide above it to prevent tipping. DO NOT attempt to use the top guide to support a rack.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

• Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.

• Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, Convection Multi Rack, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.

• Preheat is not used for Roast, Convection Roast and Proof modes.

• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.

• Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.

• Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.

• Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.

Preheat Reminders

Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.

• Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.

• Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry, casseroles and frozen foods.

• Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply to your house is less than 240 volts.

• Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.

When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

For Best Results

• Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.

• Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.

• Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently.

• Use the Kitchen Timer to keep track of cooking times.

Baking Pans and Dishes

• Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25° F when baking using glass dishes.

• Preheat the oven before adding glass baking dishes.

• Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden-brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.

• Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.

• Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware will increase the length of cooking time.

• Do not set any heavy object on the open oven door.

• Do not keep empty pans or pizza stones in the oven during cooking as this could change the cooking performance. Store pans outside the oven.

High Altitude Baking

• When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.

• For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.

Condensation

• It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

Temperature Range (°F) by Cooking Mode

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning

Self Clean

WARNING

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. During the Self Clean cycle, parts of the appliance may become potentially harmful to persons who lack adult knowledge of appliances and adult reactions to potentially harmful conditions.

During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning, small amounts of carbon monoxide can be created. Fiberglass insulation could give off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleansing cycles. To minimize exposure to these substances, provide good ventilation with an open window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.

During Self Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.

NOTICE:

• Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.

To Cancel Self Clean

Press the Oven Clear/Off button to cancel Self Clean. When the Self Clean timer ends, for safety the unit must cool down before the door can unlock. During this period the message “COOLING DOWN” is displayed.

6. When the cool down is complete, the message “SELF CLEAN FINISHED” is displayed.

7. Press Oven Clear/Off to clear the display when Self Clean is finished.

8. After the oven has cooled down and the door is unlocked, wipe remaining ash from the oven using a moist cloth.

Note:

• The oven light cannot be turned on during self-cleaning.

• The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished components in the oven can become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation. Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners to treat discolorations.

• In double oven models: Self Clean is only available for one oven at a time. The other oven must be turned off.

Avoid These Cleaners

Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the oven finish or parts.

Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.

Do not use flammable cleansers such as lighter fluid or WD-40.

Chlorine or chlorine compounds in some cleaners are corrosive to stainless steel. Check ingredients on label before using.

Maintenance

Replacing an Oven Light

WARNING

• Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and power to the appliance has been turned off before replacing the light bulb(s). Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.

• The lenses must be in place when using the appliance.

• The lenses serve to protect the light bulb from breaking.

• The lenses are made of glass. Handle carefully to avoid breaking. Broken glass could cause an injury.

• Light socket is live when door is open.

Bulb specifications:

Replacing the halogen bulb on the oven sidewall:

Tools Required

Narrow flat blade screwdriver (blade tip width 1/5” (5mm) or less to fit in slot)

Flashlight (to see socket holes to plug in bulb prongs)

1. Turn off power to the oven at the main power supply (fuse box or breaker box).

2. Remove oven racks if necessary to provide access to the bulb housing.

3. Optional: remove oven door to provide easier access and visibility.

4. Insert the tip of a narrow flat blade screwdriver between the metal clips at about a 40° angle.

Hint: The screwdriver blade must be able to pass between the metal clips to reach the inner catch.

(A) Push the screwdriver blade inward to disengage the catch from the slot in the light housing. Support the glass lens cover to prevent it from falling.

(B) Gently pry the lens off by moving the screwdriver handle away from the oven wall. The lens should detach easily. Do not attempt to force it.

5. Pull the halogen bulb from its socket.

Hint: If it is difficult to grasp the bulb using one hand, use both forefingers to pinch behind the rounded part of the bulb, then pull the bulb out using both hands.

6. Replace the halogen bulb. Grasp the new bulb with a clean, dry cloth. Align the bulb prongs with the socket holes and press into place.

Hint: Direct finger contact with the bulb may cause premature bulb failure.

7. Put the glass cover back on by inserting it into the mounting clip and pressing the end nearest you into the housing until it locks into place.

8. Turn power back on at the main power supply (fuse or breaker box).

Removing the Oven Door

WARNING

When removing the door:

• Make sure oven is cool and power to the oven has been turned off before removing the door. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burns.

• The oven door is heavy and parts of it are fragile. Use both hands to remove the oven door. The door front is glass. Handle carefully to avoid breakage.

• Grasp only the sides of the oven door. Do not grasp the handle as it may swing in your hand and cause damage or injury.

• Failure to grasp the oven door firmly and properly could result in personal injury or product damage.

• To avoid injury from hinge bracket snapping closed, be sure that both levers are securely in place before removing the door. Also, do not force door open or closed—the hinge could be damaged and injury could result.

• Do not lay removed door on sharp or pointed objects as this could break the glass. Lay on a flat, smooth surface, positioned so that the door cannot fall over.

To remove the oven door:

To help avoid injury or damage be sure to read the above WARNING before attempting to remove the oven door.

1. Open the oven door to its fully open, horizontal position.

2. Flip levers on hinges toward you.

Note: It may be necessary to use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to gently pry the upper part of the lever away from the housing. Take care to avoid scratching the housing.

3. Bring both door hinge levers to their fullest down position as shown in the illustration. The left and right door hinges differ slightly but operate in the same manner.

4. Close the oven door until it catches on the hinge stop levers, locking the hinges at the proper angle for door removal. The door will be open about 7 inches at the top. This takes the spring tension off the hinges so the door can be easily lifted out.

5. The door is heavy. Use both hands to firmly grip it by the sides. Do not grip the door by the handle. Maintaining the door angle, lift the door straight up approximately 3/4" to unhook the hinges from the slots and then pull it out towards you until the hinges are clear of the oven housing.

6. Place the door in a convenient and stable location for cleaning.

To replace the oven door:

1. Holding the door firmly in both hands, grip it on either side, not by the handle.

2. Tilt the door back slightly towards you until it opens about 7" at the top.

3. Slide the hinges into the slots as far as they will go and then lower the door straight down. The angle of the door may need to be adjusted slightly to allow the hinges to engage properly and the door to lower into place. The door should lower about 3/4" and stop. If not, the hinges have not engaged properly and the door could fall if it is released.

4. Once both hinges are fully engaged as described in Step 3, gently open the door until it is fully open.

5. Push the levers on both the hinges up and forward until they are locked into the slot, flush with the front of the oven body.

6. Close and open door slowly to be sure it is correctly and securely in place.
