Automatic Timer and Clock  
The Automatic Timer and Clock on  
your oven are helpful devices that  
serve several purposes.  
Time Bake Uses  
Questions and Answers  
Q. How can I use my Minute  
Timer to make my surface  
cooking easier?  
Automatic Timer  
Using Automatic Timer, you can  
TIME BAKE with the oven starting  
immediately and turning off at the  
Stop Time set or you can set both  
DELAYED START (some models  
say START) and STOP dials to  
automatically start and stop oven at  
a later time of day. It takes the  
worry out of not being home to  
start or stop the oven.  
A. Your Minute Timer will help  
time total cooking which includes  
time to boil food and change  
temperatures. Do not judge cooking  
time by visible steam only. Food  
will cook in covered containers  
even though you can’t see any  
steam.  
To Set the Clock  
Setting the dials for TIME BAKE  
is explained in detail on page 10.  
Q. Must the Clock be set on  
correct time of day when I wish  
to use the Automatic Timer for  
baking?  
Push in the center knob of the  
Minute Timer and turn knob in  
either direction to set the Digital  
Clock numerals to the correct time.  
Self-Clean Uses  
Automatic Timer  
A. Yes, if you wish to set the  
DELAYED START or STOP dials  
to turn on and off at set times during  
timed functions.  
(After setting the Clock, let the  
knob out, and turn the Minute  
Timer pointer to OFF.)  
The self-cleaning function on your  
oven uses the Automatic Timer to  
set the length of time needed to  
clean whether you wish to clean  
immediately or delay the cleaning  
until low energy times such as  
during the night. See page 20.  
Q. Can I use the Minute Timer  
during oven cooking?  
To Set the Minute Timer  
The Minute Timer is the large dial

used during any cooking function. “-  
The Automatic Timers (DELAYED  
START and STOP dials) are used

CLEAN functions.  
to the  
of the Digital Clock. Use  
it to time all your precise cooking  
operations. This dial also sets or  
changes the Digital Clock.  
SET THE MINUTE TIMER,  
turn the center knob clockwise,  
without pushing in, until pointer  
reaches number of minutes you  
wish to time (up to 60).  
Q. Can I change the Clock while  
I’m Time Cooking in the oven?  
A. No. The Clock cannot  
during any program that uses the  
oven timer. You must either stop  
those programs or wait until they  
are finished before changing time.

Baking  
When cooking a food for the first  
time in your new oven, use time  
given on recipes as a guide. Oven  
thermostats, over a period of years,  
may “drift” from the factory setting  
and differences in timing between  
an old and a new oven of 5 to 10  
minutes are not unusual and you  
may be inclined to think that the new  
oven is not performing correctly.  
However, your new oven has been  
set correctly at the factory and is  
more apt to be accurate than the  
oven it replaced.  
that you set. Examples of Immediate  
Start (oven turns on now and you  
set it to turn off automatically) or  
Delayed Start and Stop (setting the  
oven to turn on automatically at a  
later time and turn off at a preset  
stop time) will be described.  
How to Set Delayed Start  
and Stop  
Delayed Start and Stop is setting  
the oven timer to turn the oven on  
and off automatically at a later time  
than the present time of day.  
How to Set Immediate  
Start  
Before beginning make  
sure the range clock shows the  
correct time of day.  
Immediate Start is simply setting  
oven to start baking now and turning  
off at a later time automatically.  
Remember, foods continue cooking  
after controls are off.  
Step 1: To set start time, push in  
knob on DELAYED START dial  
(some models may say START) and  
turn pointer to time you want oven  
to turn on, for example  
How to Bake  
Step 1: Place food in oven, being  
certain to leave about 1 inch of  
space between pans and walls of  
oven for good circulation of heat.  
Close oven door. During baking,  
avoid frequent door openings to  
prevent undesirable results.  
Step 1: To set Stop Time, push in  
knob on STOP dial and turn pointer  
to time you want oven to turn off;  
Step 2: To set Stop Time, push in  
knob on STOP dial and turn pointer  
to time you want oven to turn off,  
for example  
The DELAYED

recipe called for two and one-half  
hours of baking time.  
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to  
BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob to  
temperature on recipe or on Baking  
Guide.  
NOTE: Time on STOP dial must  
be later than time shown on range  
clock and DELAYED START dial.  
Step 3: Check food for doneness  
at minimum time on recipe. Cook  
longer if necessary. Switch off heat  
and remove foods.  
How to Time Bake  
Step 2: Turn OVEN SET knob to  
TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP  
knob to oven temperature, for  
example 250°F. The oven will start  
immediately and stop at the time  
you have set.  
Step 3: Turn OVEN SET knob to  
TIME BAKE. Turn OVEN TEMP  
knob to 250°F. or recommended  
temperature.  
Place food in oven, close the door  
and automatically the oven will be  
turned on and off at the times you  
have set. Turn OVEN SET to OFF  
and remove food from oven.  
The automatic oven timer controls  
are designed to turn the oven on or  
off automatically at specific times

Baking Guide  
2. Dark or non-shiny finishes and  
glass cookware generally absorb  
heat, which may result in dry, crisp  
crusts. Reduce oven heat 25”F. if  
lighter crusts are desired. Rapid  
browning of some foods can be  
achieved by preheating cast iron  
cookware.  
1. Aluminum pans conduct heat  
quickly. For most conventional  
baking, light, shiny finishes give best  
results because they help prevent  
overbrowning. For best browning  
results, we recommend dull bottom  
for cake pans and pie plates.  
3. Preheating the oven is not always  
necessary, especially for foods  
which cook longer than 30 to 40  
minutes. For food with short  
cooking times, preheating gives  
best appearance and crispness.  
4. Open the oven door to check  
food as little as possible to prevent  
uneven heating and to save energy.

Roasting  
Roasting is cooking by dry heat.  
Tender meat or poultry can be  
roasted uncovered in your oven.  
Roasting temperatures, which  
should below and steady, keep  
spattering to a minimum. When  
roasting, it is not necessary to  
sear, baste, cover or add water  
to your meat.  
Questions & Answers  
Q. Is it necessary to check for  
doneness with a meat thermometer?  
A. Checking the finished internal  
temperature at the completion of  
cooking time is recommended.  
Temperatures are shown on Roasting  
Guide on page 14. For roasts over 8  
pounds, cooked at  
reduced time, check with

time recommended for  
Q. Why is my roast crumbling  
when try to carve it?  
roasts is 10 to 20 minutes to allow  
roast to firm up and make it easier to  
carve. Internal temperature will rise  
about 5° to 10”F.; to compensate for  
temperature rise, if desired, remove  
roast from oven at 5° to 10”F. less  
than temperature in guide on page 14.  
A. Roasts are easier to slice if  
allowed to cool 10 to 20 minutes  
after removing from oven. Be sure  
to cut across the grain of the meat.  
Q. Do I need to preheat my  
oven each time I cook a roast  
or poultry?  
You may wish to use TIME  
BAKE, as described on page 10, to  
turn oven on and off automatically.  
A. It is rarely necessary to preheat  
your oven, only for very small  
roasts, which cook a short length  
of time.  
Remember that food will continue  
to cook in the hot oven and therefore  
should be removed when the desired  
internal temperature has been  
reached.  
Step 1: Check weight of meat, and  
place, fat side up, on roasting rack  
in a shallow pan. (Broiler pan with  
rack is a good pan for this.) Line

using pan for marinating, cooking  
with fruits, cooking heavily cured  
meats, or for basting food during  
cooking. Avoid spilling these  
Q. When buying a roast, are  
there any special tips that would  
help me cook it more evenly?  
For Frozen  
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in  
thickness as possible, or buy rolled  
roasts.  
. Frozen roasts of beef, pork,  
lamb, etc., can be started without  
thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes  
per pound additional time (10  
minutes per pound for roasts under  
5 pounds, more time for larger  
roasts).  
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil

materials on oven liner or door.  
Step 2: Place in oven on shelf in  
A or B position. No preheating is  
necessary.  
A. Sealing the foil will steam the  
meat. Leaving it unsealed allows the  
air to circulate and brown the meat.  
. Thaw most frozen poultry before  
roasting to ensure even doneness.

Meat Thermometer  
Models  
For many foods, especially  
roasts and poultry, internal food  
temperature is the best test for  
doneness. The meat thermometer  
takes the guesswork out of roasting  
by cooking foods to the exact  
doneness you want. The meat  
thermometer has a skewer-like  
probe at one end of the cable and a  
two-pronged plug at the other. Use  
handle of plug and probe, rather  
than cable, when inserting and  
removing these parts from meat  
and/or oven wall receptacle. After  
preparing meat and placing in  
roasting pan on rack, follow the  
steps below for proper use of meat  
thermometer.  
Step 3: Plug cable into receptacle  
Step 6: When internal temperature  
of roast reaches number you have  
set, a buzzer sounds. To stop  
buzzer, turn pointer to SIGNAL  
OFF. Internal temperature of meat  
can be determined at any time  
during cooking by turning pointer  
down until buzzer sounds.  
on oven wall. The prongs are  
especially designed to only plug in  
one way. Be certain to insert plug  
into receptacle all the way. Close  
oven door.  
Step 4: Turn OVEN SET knob to  
BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob to  
recommended oven temperature,  
for example  
See Roasting  
Step 7: When roast is done,  
use care in removing plug from  
receptacle. DO NOT USE CABLE.  
Remove meat from oven. Since  
most meat continues cooking, you  
may wish to remove 5° to 10° sooner.  
Guide on page 14 for oven  
temperature.  
Step 1: To gauge placement of  
probe, lay probe on outside of meat  
along top or side and mark with  
finger where edge of meat comes  
on probe. Probe should be placed  
so point rests in center of the  
thickest part of roast.  
Step 5: Refer to chart near Meat  
Thermometer Dial to determine  
at what internal temperature meat  
will be done. Then turn knob next  
to dial to move pointer to correct  
number (internal temperature)  
on dial.  
Step 8: Remove probe from meat,  
using handle of probe not cable.  
Most meats carve easier if let stand  
5 to 10 minutes. Let thermometer cool  
and clean as directed in Cleaning  
Guide on page 24. Do not leave  
in oven.  
Step 2: Insert probe into meat up  
to point marked off with fingers.  
Point should not touch bone, fat or  
gristle. Not more than 2“ of probe,  
not counting handle, should be left  
exposed outside of meat.

Broiling  
See Broiling Guide on page 17.  
Broiling is cooking food by intense  
radiant heat from the upper unit in  
the oven. Most fish and tender cuts  
of meat can be broiled. Follow  
these steps to keep spattering and  
smoking to a minimum.  
Questions &Answers  
Q. Why should I leave the door  
closed when broiling chicken?  
A. Chicken is the only food  
recommended for closed-door  
broiling. This is because chicken is  
relatively thicker than other foods  
you broil. Closing the door holds  
more heat in the oven which allows  
chicken to cook evenly throughout.  
Step 1: If meat has fat or gristle near  
cut vertical slashes  
2“ apart. If  
may be trimmed, leaving layer

per Broiling Guide.  
Q. When broiling, is it necessary  
to always use a rack in the pan?  
Turn food, then use times given for  
second side as a guide to preferred  
doneness. (Where two thicknesses  
and times are given together, use  
first times given for thinnest food.)  
Step 2: Place meat on broiler rack  
in broiler pan which comes with  
range. Always use rack so fat drips  
into broiler pan; otherwise juices  
A. Yes. Using the rack suspends  
the meat over the pan. As the meat  
cooks, the juices fall into the pan,  
thus keeping meat drier. Juices  
are protected by the rack and stay  
cooler, thus preventing excessive  
spatter and smoking.  
may  
hot enough to catch  
Step 7: Turn OVEN SET knob  
to OFF. Serve food immediately,  
and leave pan outside oven to cool  
during meal for easiest cleaning.  
Position shelf on recommended  
shelf position as  
in Broiling  
Guide on page 17. Most broiling is  
done on C position, but if your  
range is connected to 208 volts, you  
may wish to use higher position.  
Q. Should I salt the meat before  
broiling?  
Use of Aluminum Foil  
A. No. Salt draws out the juices  
and allows them to evaporate.  
Always salt after cooking. Turn  
meat with tongs; piercing meat  
with a fork also allows juices to  
escape. When broiling poultry  
or fish, brush each side often  
with butter.  
Q. Why are my meats not turning  
out as brown as they should?  
1. If desired, broiler pan maybe  
lined with foil and broiler rack may  
be covered with foil for  
A. In some areas, the power  
(voltage) to the range maybe low.  
In these cases, preheat the broil  
unit for 10 minutes before placing  
broiler pan with food in oven.  
Check to see if you are using the  
recommended shelf position. Broil  
for longest period of time indicated  
in the Broiling Guide. Turn food  
only once during broiling.  
-
Step 4: Leave door ajar a few inches  
(except when broiling chicken).  
The door stays open by itself, yet  
the proper temperature is maintained  
in the oven.  
ALWAYS BE CERTAIN  
MOLD FOIL THOROUGHLY TO  
BROILER RACK, AND SLIT  
FOIL TO CONFORM WITH  
SLITS IN RACK. Broiler rack is  
designed to minimize smoking and  
spattering, and to keep drippings  
cool during broiling. Stopping fat  
and meat juices from draining to  
the broiler pan prevents rack from  
serving its purpose, and juices may  
become hot enough to catch fire.  
,..  
.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler  
rack to prevent meat from sticking?  
z
i-  
A. No. The broiler rack is designed  
to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping  
the surface cool enough to prevent  
meat sticking to the surface. However,  
spraying the broiler rack lightly with  
a vegetable cooking spray before  
cooking will make cleanup easier.  
2. DO  
place a sheet of  
aluminum foil on shelf. To do so  
may result in improperly cooked  
foods, damage to oven finish and  
increase in heat on outside surfaces  
of the oven.  
Step 5: Turn both OVEN SET and  
OVEN TEMP knobs to BROIL.  
Preheating units is not necessary.

Q. Should I line broiler pan with  
aluminum foil when roasting?  
Step 1: Use steak at least 1 to  
inches thick. Lay probe on top of  
steak to determine the position  
probe is to be inserted. Gauge  
distance from edge to center of  
largest muscle; mark with thumb  
where edge of meat or fat meets  
probe. Be certain NOT MORE  
THAN 2 inches of probe, not  
counting handle, is left exposed  
outside of meat.  
A. Yes, when using pan for  
marinating, cooking with fruits or  
heavily cured meats, or for basting  
during cooking. Avoid spilling these  
materials on oven liner or door.  
NOTES:  
If there is a question about  
whether probe has moved out of  
position during cooking, turn knob  
so pointer moves down on dial until  
buzzer sounds. Note indicated  
temperature and reset pointer to  
SIGNAL OFF. Push probe farther  
down into roast, about 1 inch, then  
after a few minutes redetermine

Rotisserie  
Food is cooked by revolving on  
a spit under the (upper) broil unit.  
As food turns, it bastes itself to  
produce a succulent brown and  
tender roast. Meat tender enough  
for roasting may be rotissed.  
4. Insert spit into motor: Grasp  
handle on spit. Using point of spit,  
move to one side the cover over  
motor outlet in rear of oven; push  
spit firmly into motor outlet as far  
as it will go. Remove handle.  
5. Check rotation of food. Tighten  
or adjust forks if necessary. During  
cooking, forks may need tightening  
due to normal meat shrinkage.  
Finish securing food on spit by  
gliding second 2-pronged fork onto  
spit with prongs toward food. Tighten  
screws to a flat surface on spit.  
6. As food cooks, leave door ajar in  
“Broil” position; door stays open  
by itself.  
7. Baste food if desired. With pot  
holders, pull out pan and shelf  
together to shelf stop. Attach  
handle to spit to revolve food by  
hand while basting. To continue  
cooking push shelf and broiler pan  
into oven, insert spit into motor,  
remove handle.  
1. Assemble rotisserie. Insert  
curved ends of frame into large  
holes of broiler pan handles. Lock  
frame in place by fitting straight  
ends of support into holes in center  
handles.  
2. Secure food on spit. When  
secured correctly, food will be  
located in center area of spit  
leaving 4 inches free at the pointed  
end (this part goes into motor).  
Rotisserie Notes  
4. Place spit on frame so handle end  
is in narrow support, and pointed  
end is in wide U-shaped support.  
Do not use electric meat  
thermometer, on models so  
equipped, while operating the  
rotisserie. A regular, non-electric  
meat thermometer may be used  
while rotissing providing it doesn’t  
touch the oven, frame or pan while  
meat revolves. (Or, if desired, cook  
to estimated doneness then pull  
meat from oven to insert meat  
thermometer. Wait about 2 minutes  
for temperature to register. If meat  
is not done, remove thermometer  
and continue cooking if necessary. )  
Rotissing the Food  
3. To secure food on spit: Push  
2-pronged fork onto spit near  
handle end. Tighten with screw.  
Push spit through food (tie food  
securely and compactly), distributing  
weight evenly on each side of spit.  
1. Put oven shelf in lowest position  
in oven. With food on spit, place  
spit on oven shelf.  
2. Set OVEN TEMP knob as  
suggested on Rotisserie Time and  
Temperature Guide at right. Settings  
are 300-400”F. to get foods juicy  
and done without overbrowning.  
To check weight distribution on  
spit, hold spit (and food) between  
hands, palms up; spit should roll  
smoothly from palms to fingertips  
when palms are tipped forward.  
3. Switch OVEN SET knob to

Questions and Answers  
Follow These Steps after  
Self-Cleaning  
After cleaning is complete, the  
door will stay locked until the oven  
cools and the LOCKED light goes  
off. This takes about 30 minutes.  
Q. Why won’t my oven clean  
immediately even though I set  
all the time and clean knobs  
correctly?  
A. Check to be sure your  
Q. Is the “crackling” sound I  
hear during cleaning normal?  
DELAYED START dial is set to  
the same time as the range clock.  
Also check to be sure LATCH  
HANDLE is moved to the right.  
A. Yes. This is the metal heating  
and cooling during both the  
cooking and cleaning functions.  
Q. If my oven clock is not working,  
Q. Should there be any odor  
during the cleaning?  
can I still self-clean my oven?  
A. No. Your Automatic Oven  
Timer uses the range clock to help  
start and stop your self-cleaning  
cycle.  
A. Yes, there maybe a slight odor  
during the first few cleanings.  
Failure to wipe out excessive soil  
might also cause an odor when  
cleaning.  
When LOCKED light is off, slide  
the LATCH HANDLE to the left as  
far as it will go and open the door.  
Q. Can I use commercial oven  
cleaners  
any part of my  
self-cleaning oven?  
Q. What causes the hair-like  
lines on the enameled surface  
of my oven?  
A. No cleaners or coatings should  
be used around any part of this  
oven. If you do use them and do not  
wipe the oven absolutely clean, the  
residue can scar the oven surface  
and damage metal parts the next  
time the oven is automatically  
cleaned.  
A. This is a normal condition  
resulting from heating and cooling  
during cleaning. They do not affect  
how your oven performs.  
Q. Why do I have ash left in my  
oven after cleaning?  
Q. Can I clean the Woven Gasket  
A. Some types of soil will leave a  
deposit which is ash. It can be  
removed with a damp sponge or  
cloth.  
Step  
around the oven door?  
Turn OVEN SET knob to OFF.  
A. No, this gasket is essential for  
a good oven seal, and care must be  
taken not to rub, damage or move  
this gasket.  
Step 3:  
Turn OVEN TEMP knob to  
Q. My oven shelves do not slide  
easily. What is the matter?  
NOTE: If you wish to start and  
stop cleaning at a later time than  
shown on clock, push in and turn  
DELAYED START dial to time  
you wish to start. Add the hours  
needed for cleaning to this “start”  
time, then push in and turn STOP  
dial to this desired stop time. Oven  
will automatically turn on and off  
at the set times.  
Q. After having just used the  
oven, the LOCKED light came  
on and I could not move the  
LATCH HANDLE. Why?  
A. After many cleanings, oven  
shelves may become so clean they  
do not slide easily. If you wish  
shelves to slide more easily,  
dampen fingers with a small  
amount of cooking oil and rub  
lightly over sides of shelf where  
they contact shelf supports.  
A. After several continuous  
temperature bakings or  
the LOCKED light may come on.  
The oven door can’t be latched for  
self-cleaning while the LOCKED  
light is on. If this happens, let the  
oven cool until the LOCKED light  
goes off. Then the oven door can  
be latched for self-cleaning.  
Q. My oven shelves have become  
gray after the self-clean cycle. Is  
this normal?  
A. Yes. After the self-clean cycle,  
the shelves may lose some luster  
and discolor to a deep gray color.  
Q. What should I do if excessive  
smoking occurs during cleaning?  
A. This is caused by excessive soil,  
and you should switch the OVEN
