WARNING!  
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire,  
electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.  
WARNING ANTI-TIP DEVICE  
OpeagIructions  
All ranges can tip and injury could result.  
To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall and floor by installing the Anti-Tip  
device supplied.  
To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, remove the kick panel or storage drawer  
and inspect the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.  
If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly  
engaged when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of  
the range tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.  
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution  
could result in tipping of the range and injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE  
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California 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.  
Fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury. If your model has a surface light, you must recycle the  
fluorescent light bulb according to local, state and federal codes.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…  
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F. and poultry  
to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against  
foodborne illness.

SURFACE COOKING UNITS  
Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit  
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct  
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also  
improve efficiency.  
OpeagIructions  
Never leave the surface units unattended at When preparing flaming foods under the

hood, turn the fan on.  
To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric  
shock, always be certain that the controls  
for all surface units are at the OFF position  
and all coils are cool before attempting to  
lift or remove a unit.  
Do not use aluminum foil to line the drip  
pans or anywhere in the oven except as  
described in this manual. Misuse could  
result in a shock, fire hazard or damage  
to the range.  
Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet  
sponge is used to wipe spills on a hot  
cooktop, be careful to avoid steam burns.  
Be sure the drip pans and the vent duct are  
not covered and are in place. Their  
absence during cooking could damage  
range parts and wiring.  
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or  
medium high heat settings.  
rdCleaing  
Only certain types of glass, glass ⁄ceramic,  
earthenware or other glazed containers are  
suitable for cooktop service; others may  
break because of the sudden change in  
temperature.  
Foods for frying should be as dry as  
possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture  
on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble  
up and over the sides of the pan.  
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep  
fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can  
cause spillovers when food is added.  
To minimize the possibility of burns,  
ignition of flammable materials and  
spillage, the handle of a container  
should be turned toward the center  
of the range without extending over  
nearby surface units.  
If a combination of oils or fats will be used  
in frying, stir together before heating, or as  
fats melt slowly.  
T
rubleshotingT  
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.  
Always turn the surface units off before  
removing cookware.  
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever  
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond  
the smoking point.  
Do not immerse or soak the removable  
surface units. Do not put them in a  
dishwasher. Do not self-clean the surface  
units in the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
WARNING!  
OVEN  
Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause  
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.  
SafeyIructions  
Do not heat unopened food containers.  
Pressure could build up and the container  
could burst, causing an injury.  
When using cooking or roasting bags in the  
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.  
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.  
Keep the oven vent unobstructed.  
If overheated, they can catch on fire.  
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.  
Do not use the oven for a storage area.  
Items stored in an oven can ignite.  
Place the oven shelf in the desired position  
while the oven is cool. If shelves must be  
handled when hot, do not let pot holder  
contact the heating elements.  
Do not leave paper products, cooking  
utensils or food in the oven when not  
in use.  
OpeagIructions  
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a  
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also  
a precaution against burns from touching  
hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.  
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven  
bottoms, except as suggested in this  
manual. Improper installation of  
aluminum foil may result in a risk of  
electric shock or fire.  
SELF-CLEANING OVEN  
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind  
should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside  
of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.  
rdCleaing  
Do not clean the door gasket. The door  
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care  
should be taken not to rub, damage or  
move the gasket.  
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,  
turn the oven off and disconnect the  
power supply. Have it serviced by a  
qualified technician.  
ips  
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the  
broiler pan, grid and other cookware.

Using the oven.  
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.  
Before you begin…  
The shelves have stops, so that when  
placed correctly on the supports, they will  
stop before coming completely out, and  
will not tilt.  
CAUTION: When you are using the shelf in the  
lowest position (A), you will need to use caution  
when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that  
you pull the shelf out several inches and then,  
using two pot holders, pull the shelf out by  
holding the sides of it. The shelf is low and you  
could be burned if you place your hand in the  
middle of the shelf and pull all the way out. Be  
very careful not to burn your hand on the door  
when using the shelf in the lowest position (A).  
When placing and removing cookware,  
pull the shelf out until it stops.  
OpeagIructions  
To remove a shelf, pull it toward you, tilt  
the front end up and pull it out.  
To replace, place the end of the shelf  
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the  
front and push the shelf in.  
The oven has 6 shelf positions.

Preheating and Pan Placement  
T
rubleshotingT  
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.  
Preheating is necessary for good results  
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and  
breads.  
Baking results will be better if baking pans  
are centered in the oven as much as  
possible. If baking with more than one  
pan, place the pans so each has at least 1  
to 112of air space around it. If baking  
four cake layers at the same time, place  
two layers on rack B and two layers on  
rack D. Stagger pans on the rack so one is  
not directly above the other.  
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature.  
The control will beep when the oven is preheated  
and the display will show your set temperature.  
This will take approximately 15–20 minutes.  
Center baking pans in the oven.  
ips  
Aluminum Foil  
CustomSrvice  
You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan  
and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil  
tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.  
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of  
the oven.  
Never entirely cover a shelf with  
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat  
circulation and result in poor baking.  
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat  
and meat juices from draining into the  
broiler pan. The juices could become  
hot enough to catch on fire. If you do  
not cut the slits, you are essentially  
frying, not broiling.  
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to  
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower  
shelf several inches below the food.

more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that  
the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!  
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few  
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust  
the thermostat yourself.  
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.  
These thermometers may vary 20–40°F.  
To Adjust the Thermostat  
Put the Oven Temperature knob in

the HOUR +/– pads to increase or  
decrease the temperature in 5  
degree increments.  
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the  
broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The

The type of margarine will 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 product.  
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat  
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.  
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the  
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of  
baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least  
70% vegetable oil.
