As your oven heats up, the temperature change the air in the oven may
cause water droplets to form the door glass. These droplets are harmless
and will evaporate as the oven continues heat up.

Oven Vents
The oven is vented through duct openings at the rear
of the cooktop. See Features section. Do not block
these openings when cooking in the oven-it is
important that the
of hot air from the oven
fresh air to the oven burners be uninterrupted.

items on the
they may melt if left too
close to the vent.
●
Handles pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
Metal items will become very hot if they are left
on the cooktop and could cause burns.
●
Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air
from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
Oven Light

switch on the lower control panel to turn the light on or off when the door
is closed.

Adjusting Oven Thermostat
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
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. 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
likely to be accurate than the oven it replaced.
If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you
can adjust it yourself. To decide how much to change
the thermostat, set the oven temperature
higher
or lower than the temperature in your recipe, then
bake. The results of tbis “test” should give you an
idea of how much the thermostat should be changed.
To adjust thermostat:
1. Press the BAKE pad.
2. Select an oven temperature between
3. Immediately, before BAKE indicator stops
flashing, press and hold the BAKE pad for about
4 seconds. The red display will change to the oven
adjustment display.
4. The oven thermostat can be adjusted up
(+) hotter or (–) cooler. Use the
INCREASE or DECREASE pads to select the
desired change in the red display.
5. When you have made the adjustment, press the
CLEAR/OFF pad to go back to the time of day
display. Use your oven as you would normally.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect Broil or
Clean temperatures. It
be remembered when
power is removed.
