USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how
to set them properly.
2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing
them properly to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over the information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new range.
Oven Controls
Your range has two oven control knobs—
OVEN SET and OVEN TEMP.
The OVEN SET knob has settings for BAKE,
TIMED BAKE, CLEAN, BROIL and OFF.
The OVEN TEMP knob maintains the temperature
you set, from WARM (150°F.) to BROIL (550°F.)
and also at CLEAN (880°F.). The OVEN TEMP knob
also turns the oven OFF.
The oven cycling light glows until the oven reaches
your selected temperature, then goes off and on with
the oven element(s) during cooking.
The oven on light will glow any time the OVEN SET
knob is not in the OFF position.

Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that
when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they
will stop before coming out completely from the
oven, and will not tilt when removing food from or
placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware
on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven.
This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove the shelves from the oven, pull toward
you, tilt the front end upward and pull them out.
To replace, place the shelf on the shelf support with
the stop-locks (curved extension under the shelf)
facing up toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front
and push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it
goes past the bump on the shelf support. Then lower
the front of the shelf and push it all the way back.
