WARNING!  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
Do not store flammable materials in  
Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in  
an oven.  
or near your oven.  
Do not store or use combustible materials,  
gasoline or other flammable vapors and  
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other  
appliance.  
CAUTION: Items of interest to  
children should not be stored in cabinets  
above an oven; children climbing on the  
oven to reach items could be seriously  
injured.  
Stand away from the oven when opening  
the oven door. Hot air or steam which  
escapes can cause burns to hands, face  
and/ or eyes.  
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging  
garments while using the appliance. Be  
careful when reaching for items stored in  
cabinets over the oven. Flammable material  
could be ignited if brought in contact with  
hot surfaces or heating elements and may  
cause severe burns.  
Do not heat unopened food containers.  
Pressure could build up and the container  
could burst, causing an injury.  
Keep the oven vent unobstructed.  
Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp  
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in  
burns from steam. Do not let pot holders  
touch hot heating elements. Do not use a  
towel or other bulky cloth.  
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.  
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.  
For your safety, never use your appliance  
for warming or heating the room.  
When using cooking or roasting bags in the  
oven, follow the manufacturers directions.  
Do not let cooking grease or other  
flammable materials accumulate in or  
near the oven.  
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 water on grease fires. Never pick  
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.  
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.  
Flame in the oven can be smothered  
completely by closing the oven door and  
turning the oven off or by using a multi-  
purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire  
extinguisher.  
If overheated, they can catch on fire.  
Do not use the oven for a storage area.  
Items stored in an oven can ignite.  
Do not leave paper products, cooking  
utensils or food in the oven when not  
in use.  
Do not touch the heating elements or the  
interior surface of the oven. These surfaces  
may be hot enough to burn even though  
they are dark in color. During and after  
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other  
flammable materials contact any interior  
area of the oven; allow sufficient time for  
cooling first.  
After broiling, always take the broiler pan  
out of the oven and clean it. Leftover  
grease in the broiler pan can catch fire  
next time you use the pan.  
Clean only parts listed in this Owners  
Manual.  
Potentially hot surfaces include oven vent  
openings, surfaces near the openings,  
crevices around the oven door, the edges  
of the window and metal trim parts above  
the door.  
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.  
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven  
may be hot when the door is opened.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.  
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.  
SELF-CLEANING OVEN  
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.  
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the  
broiler pan, grid and other cookware.  
Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before  
starting the self-cleaning operation.  
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial  
oven cleaner or oven liner protective  
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,  
turn the oven off and disconnect the power  
supply. Have it serviced by a qualified  
technician.  
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.  
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Using the oven.  
To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.  
Before you begin…  
The racks have stop-locks, so that when  
placed correctly on the supports, they will  
stop before coming completely out, and  
will not tilt.  
To remove a rack, pull it toward you,  
tilt the front end up and pull it out.  
To replace, place the end of the rack  
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the  
front and push the rack in.  
When placing and removing cookware,  
pull the rack out to the bump on the  
rack support.

Preheating and Pan Placement  
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.  
To preheat, set the oven at the correct  
temperature. 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. Pans should not touch each  
other or the walls of the oven. If you need  
to use two racks, stagger the pans so one  
is not directly above the other, and leave  
approximately 112between pans, from  
the front, back and sides of the wall.  
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or  
tone, preheat 10 minutes.  
Aluminum Foil  
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.  
Never entirely cover a rack with  
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat  
circulation and result in poor baking.  
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to  
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower  
rack several inches below the food.  
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a  
spillover.  
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.

Using the probe.  
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The  
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.  
Use of probes other than the one  
provided with this product may result in  
damage to the probe.  
Cable  
Plug  
Use the handles of the probe and plug  
when inserting and removing them from  
the meat and outlet.  
Probe  
Handles  
To prevent possible burns, do not unplug  
the probe from the outlet until the oven  
has cooled.  
To avoid damaging your probe, do not use  
tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.  
To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is  
completely defrosted before inserting.  
The temperature probe has a  
skewer-like probe at one end and a  
plug at the other end that goes into  
the outlet in the oven.  
Never leave your probe inside the oven during  
a self-cleaning cycle.  
Do not store the probe in the oven.  
After preparing the meat and placing it  
on a trivet or on the broiler pan grid,  
follow these directions for proper probe  
placement.  
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe  
into the meatiest part of the roast. For  
bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe  
into the center of the lowest large muscle  
or joint.  
Lay the probe on the outside of the  
meat along the top or side and mark Insert the probe into the center of dishes  
with your finger where the edge of  
the meat comes to on the probe.  
The point should rest in the center  
of the thickest meaty part of the

to the leg of a whole turkey.  
How to Set the Oven For Roasting When Using the Probe  
Insert the probe into the meat.  
After the internal temperature of the  
meat reaches 100°F, the changing  
internal temperature will be shown  
in the display.  
Plug the probe into the outlet in the  
oven. Make sure its pushed all the  
way in. Close the oven door.  
When the internal temperature of  
the meat reaches the number you  
have set, the probe and the oven  
turn off and the oven control  
signals. To stop the signal, press the  
CLEAR/OFF pad. Use hot pads to  
remove the probe from the food.

Using the convection oven.  
NOTE: The convection fan will cycle on  
and off while cooking to best distribute  
hot air in the oven.  
Convection Fan  
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air  
over, under and around the food.  
The convection oven fan shuts off when  
the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave  
the door open for long periods of time  
while using convection cooking or you  
may shorten the life of the convection  
heating element.  
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed  
throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods  
are evenly cooked and browned—often in less  
time with convection heat.  
1-Rack Convection Baking  
The convection fan circulates the heated  
air evenly over and around the food.  
Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked  
on 1 rack and for large foods. Additionally,  
some time savings may be noticed.  
When convection baking with only 1 rack, use  
CONVECTION BAKE 1 RACK and follow the  
rack positions recommended in the Using the  
oven section.  
Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,  
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls,  
angel food cake and bread.  
Multi-Rack Convection Baking  
Because heated air is circulated evenly  
throughout the oven, foods can be  
baked with excellent results using  
multiple racks.  
27” Ovens  
When baking on 3 racks, divide the oven  
into thirds by placing the offset rack in  
the third (C) rack position and the  
straight racks in first (A) and fourth (D)  
rack positions.  
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times  
slightly for some foods but the overall  
result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,  
biscuits and other quickbreads give very  
good results with multi-rack baking.  
For two-rack baking, place the offset rack  
in the bottom (A) rack position. Place  
the straight rack in the third (C) rack  
position.  
Multi-rack position 27 oven.  
To cook food on more than one rack in  
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE  
MULTI.  
CAUTION: When you are using the offset rack  
(on 27models) in the lowest position (A), you  
will need to use caution when pulling the rack  
out. We recommend that you pull the rack out  
several inches and then, using two pot holders,  
pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The  
offset rack is low and you could be burned if you  
place your hand in the middle of the rack and pull  
all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your  
hand on the door when using a rack in the lowest  
position (A).  
30” Ovens  
When baking on 3 racks, place one  
rack in the second (B) position, one  
in the fourth (D) position and one in  
the 6th (F) position.  
Multi-rack position 30 oven.  
Adapting Recipes…  
You can use your favorite recipes in the  
convection oven.  
Use pan size recommended.  
Some package instructions for frozen  
casseroles or main dishes have been  
developed using commercial convection ovens.  
For best results in this oven, preheat the oven  
and use the temperature on the package.  
When convection baking, the  
Auto RecipeConversion feature  
automatically reduces the set regular  
baking temperature by the recommended  
25°F. See Using Auto RecipeConversion in the  
Special Features section.

Place the rack (on 27models, use  
the offset rack) in the lowest rack  
position (A).  
Place the grid on the broiler pan  
and put the roasting rack over them,  
making sure the posts on the roasting  
rack fit into the holes in broiler pan.  
Roasting rack  
Convection Roast  
Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.  
The convection fan circulates the heated  
air evenly over and around the food.  
Meat and poultry are browned on all  
sides as if they were cooked on a  
rotisserie. Using the roasting rack  
provided, heated air will be circulated  
over, under and around the food being  
roasted. The heated air seals in juices  
quickly for a moist and tender product  
while, at the same time, creating a rich  
golden brown exterior.  
When you are convection roasting it is  
important that you use the broiler pan  
and grid and the special roasting rack for  
best convection roasting results. The pan  
is used to catch grease spills and the grid  
is used to prevent grease spatters, while  
the rack allows the heated air to circulate  
under the meat and increase browning  
on the underside of the meat or poultry.  
Post  
Grid  
Place the meat on the roasting rack.  
CAUTION: When you are using the offset rack  
(on 27models) in the lowest position (A), you  
will need to use caution when pulling the rack  
out. We recommend that you pull the rack out  
several inches and then, using two pot holders,  
pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The  
offset rack is low and you could be burned if you

Cookware for Convection Cooking  
Before using your convection oven,  
check to see if your cookware leaves  
room for air circulation in the oven.  
If you are baking with several pans, leave  
space between them. Also, be sure the  
pans do not touch each other or the  
walls of the oven.  
Metal and Glass  
When baking cookies, you will  
get the best results if you use a  
flat cookie sheet instead of a  
pan with low sides.  
Any type of cookware will work in your  
convection oven. However, metal pans  
heat the fastest and are recommended  
for convection baking.  
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake  
faster than shiny pans.  
Paper and Plastic  
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.  
Heat-resistant paper and plastic  
containers that are recommended for  
use in regular ovens can be used in  
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that  
is heat-resistant to temperatures of  
400°F can also be used.  
For recipes like oven-baked chicken,  
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot  
circulate well around food in a pan with  
high sides.

How to Set the Oven For Proofing  
Place the covered dough in a dish in  
the oven on rack B or C.  
When proofing is finished, press  
the CLEAR/OFF pad.  
NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a  
cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic  
may need to be anchored underneath the  
container so the oven fan will not blow it off).  
To avoid lowering the oven temperature  
and lengthening proofing time, do not  
open the oven door unnecessarily.  
Check bread products early to avoid  
over-proofing.  
Press the PROOF pad and then the  
START pad.  
NOTE:  
The display will read PrF (proof).  
Do not use the proofing mode for warming  
food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven  
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods  
at safe temperatures. Use the WARM feature  
to keep food warm.  
The oven interior light turns on and  
remains on during proofing.

How to Set the Oven For Warming  
The warm feature keeps cooked foods  
warm for up to 3 hours after the cooking  
function is finished, or it can be activated  
independently to keep already cooked  
foods warm.  
IMPORTANT NOTES:  
Food should be kept hot in its cooking  
container or transferred to a heat-safe  
serving dish.  
For moist foods, cover them with an oven-safe  
lid or aluminum foil.  
This feature is not designed to reheat  
cold food.  
Fried or crisp foods do not need to be covered,  
but can become too dry if warmed for too long.  
To use this feature independently, press  
the WARM pad and then the START pad.  
Repeated opening of the door allows the hot  
air to escape and the food to cool.  
To activate this feature for use after  
Timed Baking or Roasting, press the  
WARM pad while programming the

To Crisp Stale Items  
With large loads it may be necessary to cover  
some of the cooked food items.  
Place food in low-sided dishes or pans.  
Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing  
containers in the oven.  
For best results, place the food items in  
a single layer. Do not stack.  
Do not use plastic containers, lids or plastic  
wrap.  
Leave them uncovered.  
Check crispness after 20–30 minutes.  
CAUTION: Plastic containers, lids or plastic wrap  
will melt if placed in the oven. Melted plastic may  
not be removable and is not covered under your

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 degrees.  
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be  
retained in memory after a power failure.  
To Adjust the Thermostat  
The oven temperature can be  
adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter or (-)  
35°F cooler. Press the number pads  
the same way you read them. For  
example, to change the oven  
Press the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO  
pads at the same time for 3 seconds  
until the display shows SF.  
Press the BAKE pad. A two-digit  
number shows in the display.  
temperature 15°F, press 1 and 5.  
Press BAKE again to alternate  
between increasing and decreasing  
the oven temperature.  
When you have made the  
adjustment, press the START  
pad to go back to the time of  
day display. Use your oven as  
you would normally.  
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.

Using the self-cleaning oven.  
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.  
Before a Clean Cycle  
The oven must be cool in order to set the  
self-clean cycle.  
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds  
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given  
off during the self-cleaning cycle of  
any oven. Move birds to another  
well-ventilated room.  
We recommend venting your kitchen  
with an open window or using a  
ventilation fan or hood during  
the first self-clean cycle.  
Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid,  
probe, all cookware and any aluminum  
foil from the oven.  
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven  
bottom.  
The oven shelves and convection roasting  
rack can be self-cleaned, but they will  
darken, lose their luster and become  
hard to slide.  
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.  
Clean the top, sides and outside of the  
oven door with soap and water.  
Make sure the oven light bulb cover  
is in place and the oven light is off.  
How to Set the Oven for Cleaning  
Press the SELF CLEAN STD/LOW pad  
once for a 4-hour clean time or  
twice for a 3-hour clean time.  
When this LOCKED light is off, open the  
door.  
The word LOCKED will flash and the  
oven control will signal if you set the  
clean cycle and forget to close the oven  
door.  
A 3-hour self-clean time is  
recommended for use when  
cleaning small, contained spills. A  
self-clean time of 4 hours or longer  
is recommended for a dirtier oven.  
To stop a clean cycle, press the  
CLEAR/OFF pad. When the LOCKED light  
goes off indicating the oven has cooled  
below the locking temperature, open  
the door.  
If a time other than 4 hours or  
3 hours is needed, use the number  
pads and enter the desired clean  
time.  
You can change the clean time to any  
time between 3 hours and 5 hours,  
depending on how dirty your oven is.  
Press the START pad.  
The door locks automatically. The display  
will show the clean time remaining. It will  
not be possible to open the oven door

the oven cools.  
You cannot set the oven for cooking  
until the oven is cool enough for the  
door to unlock.  
If white spots remain, remove them with a  
soap-filled steel-wool pad and rinse thoroughly  
with a vinegar and water mixture.  
While the oven is self-cleaning, you  
can press the CLOCK pad to display  
the time of day. To return to the  
clean countdown, press the SELF
