Oven operation
9 WARNING
To help prevent burns, never remove or reposition the
oven racks while the oven is ON or while the oven is
cooling.
Positioning the oven racks
• The correct rack position depends on the recipe and
the cooking mode.
• The rack positions are numbered from the bottom of
the oven, like an elevator.
• Rack position 3 is the most frequently used position.
• Place rack(s) in the proper position before turning on
the oven.
Initial start-up
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS remove the oven racks before self-
cleaning the oven. If the gliding racks remain in the oven
during self-clean, lubricants in the glide mechanisms of
each rack will be lost and the finish will discolor.
The range occasionally has an odor or smoke when first
used. These odors or smoke comes from the burning off of
manufacturing residues and is typical of any new oven
regardless of manufacturer.
Before baking or broiling, the oven and broiler should be
turned on to burn off the manufacturing oils using one of
the two following methods:
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Turn the oven on to 450ºF (230ºC) for 20 to 30
minutes; then turn the broiler to broil for the same
length of time.
or
1. Turn on kitchen ventilation (or if vent hood is a
recirculation type open a window).
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Set oven to self-clean (select models).
Automatic operation of the 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 back 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.
Convection fan
The convection fan operates during all convection modes.
When the oven is operating in a convection mode, the fan
turns off automatically when the door is opened. The
convection fan may also run during self-clean.
