MED BROIL
Inner and outer broil
elements pulse on
and off to produce
less heat for slow
broiling. Allow about
4 inches (10 cm)
between the top
surface of the food
and the broil element. Slow broiling is best for chicken and
ham in order to broil food without over-browning it. Use
this setting for broiling small and average cuts of meat.
LOW BROIL
This mode uses only
a fraction of the
available power to
the inner broil
element for delicate
top-browning. The
inner broil element is
on for only part of
the time. Use this setting to gently brown meringue on
racks 3 or 4 in 3-4 minutes.
Convection Dehydration
This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to
dehydrate fruits and vegetables.
1. Prepare the food as recommended.
2. Arrange the food on drying racks (not included with
the oven; contact a local store handling speciality
cooking utensils).
3. Set the appropriate low temperature and turn the
selector to “TRU CONV”.
Convection Defrost
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
2. Set the temperature control to “OFF”.
3. Turn the selector to “TRU CONV”.
Self-Clean Cycle
This range features a self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle,
the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off
soil and deposits. A powder ash residue is left in the
bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle.
See Use and Care Manual for self-clean cycle instructions.

Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposures to such substances.

TIPPING HAZARD
To reduce the risk of the
appliance tipping, it must be
secured by a properly installed
anti-tip bracket(s). To make sure the bracket has
been installed properly, look behind the range with
a flashlight to verify proper installation engaged in
the rear top left corner of the range.
• THIS RANGE CAN TIP
• INJURIES TO PERSONS CAN RESULT
• INSTALL ANTI-TIP DEVICE PACKED WITH

• SEE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
W A R N I N G
DO NOT
use commercial oven cleaners inside the
oven. Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous
fumes or can damage the porcelain finishes.
W A R N I N G
To avoid risk of property damage,
personal injury or death; follow
information in this manual exactly to
prevent a fire or explosion. DO NOT
store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any appliance.
W A R N I N G
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT
touch a hot oven light bulb with
a damp cloth as the bulb could break.
Should the bulb break, disconnect power
to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
W A R N I N G
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the electric power at the
main fuse or circuit breaker before
replacing bulb.
W A R N I N G
BURN OR ELECTRICAL
SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven
is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do
so can result in burns or electrical shock.
C A U T I O N
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow
defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than
two hours.
N O T I C E
DO NOT
turn the Temperature Control on during
defrosting. Turning the convection fan on will
accelerate the natural defrosting of the food
without the heat.
W A R N I N G
BURN HAZARD
The oven door, especially the glass, can
get hot. Danger of burning: DO NOT
touch the glass!
W A R N I N G
This range features a self-cleaning cycle. During
this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures
in order to burn off soil and deposits. A powder ash
residue is left in the bottom of the oven after
completion of the self-clean cycle.
Note: DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners
inside the oven. Use of these cleaners can
produce hazardous fumes or can damage the
porcelain finishes. DO NOT line the oven with
aluminum foil or other materials. These items can
melt or burn during a self-clean cycle, causing
permanent damage to the oven.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT
touch the exterior portions of
the oven after self-cleaning cycle has
begun, since some parts become
extremely hot to the touch!
During the first few times the self-cleaning feature
is used, there may be some odor and smoking
from the “curing” of the binder in the high-density
insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is
thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During
subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may sense
an odor characteristic of high temperatures.
KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING
THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.
C A U T I O N
You must carefully check the food during the
dehydration process to ensure that it does not
catch fire.
C A U T I O N
BURN HAZARD
When self-cleaning, surfaces may get
hotter than usual. Therefore, children
should be kept away.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT
store items of interest to children over
the unit. Children climbing to reach items could
be seriously injured.

is located during the self-clean cycle.
Radio Interference
This unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this unit does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the distance between the unit and
receiver
• Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Important notice regarding pet birds:
NEVER keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms
where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds
have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes
released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be
harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to
overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated
non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
About Your Appliance
• Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and
for several minutes after oven is turned off. When
the oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area
become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is
turned off, DO NOT touch the oven vent or
surrounding areas until they have had sufficient
time to cool.
• Other potentially hot surfaces include range top,
areas facing the range top, oven vent, surfaces near
the vent opening, oven door, areas around the
oven door and oven window.
• The misuse of oven doors (e.g. stepping, sitting,
or leaning on them) can result in potential hazards
and/or injuries.
W A R N I N G
NEVER
use appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm a room to prevent potential hazard to the user
and damage to the appliance. Also, DO NOT use the
range top or oven as a storage area for food or
cooking utensils.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT
heat empty cookware or let cookware boil
dry. The cookware can absorb an excessive
amount of heat very quickly, resulting in possible
damage to the cookware and ceramic glass.
C A U T I O N
To avoid risk of property damage, DO NOT use cast
iron cookware. Cast iron retains heat and may
result in damage to the range top.
