12 USING YOUR OVEN Befor e Using Y our Oven Electric Ignition Be sure you understand how to set the controls properly . Practice removing and replacing the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to it, especially during the first weeks of using your new range.
Shelf Positions The oven has five shelf supports for baking, roasting and broiling identified in this illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D and E (top). It also has a special low shelf position (R) for roasting extra large items, such as a lar ge turkey—the shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.
14 BAKING Do not lock the oven door with the latch during baking. The latch is used for self-cleaning only . Y our oven temperature is controlled using the latest technology in oven control systems. It is recommended that you operate your new oven for a number of weeks to become familiar with its performance.
Cookies Aluminum Foil When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have darker edges and pale or light browning may occur . Cookies can be baked on several shelves at the same time but browning may be uneven because of reduced air circulation.
BAKING Baking Pans Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur . • Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a browner , crisper crust. Use this type for pies. • Shiny , bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting in a lighter , more delicate browning.
17 TIMED BAKING (on some models) How to Time Bake Do not lock the oven door with the latch during timed baking. The latch is used for self-cleaning only . The oven control allows you to turn the oven on or off automatically at specific times that you set.
18 TIMED BAKING How to Set Delay Start and Automatic Stop T o avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the correct position before you program the oven. Y ou can set the oven control to delay-start the oven, cook for a specific length of time and then turn off automatically .
19 ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOST A T— DO IT YOURSELF! Y ou may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. W e recommend that you use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it, following the times given in your recipes as a guide.
20 ROASTING Do not lock the oven door with the latch during roasting. The latch is used for self-cleaning only . Roasting is cooking by dry heat. T ender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Roasting temperatures, which should be low and steady , keep spattering to a minimum.
21 Questions and Answers Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a meat thermometer? A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the completion of cooking time is recommended. T emperatures are shown in Roasting Guide. For roasts over 8 lbs.
22 BROILING 1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2 ″ apart. If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8 ″ thick. 2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan which comes with the range.
23 BROILING GUIDE The oven door must be closed during broiling. • Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with your range. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan. • For steaks and chops, slash the fat evenly around the outside edges of the meat.
24 OPERA TING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN Normal Cleaning T ime: 4 hours and 20 minutes Befor e a Clean Cycle W e recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.
25 Operating the Self-Cleaning Oven How to Set the Oven for Cleaning If the oven is too hot and you start to set a clean cycle, you will not be able to slide the latch. Allow additional time for cooling before you try to set the cycle. 1. Follow directions to prepare the oven for cleaning.
OPERA TING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN How to Set Delay Start of Cleaning (on some models) Delay Start is setting the oven to start the clean cycle automatically at a later time than the present time of day . For example: Let’ s say it is 7:00 and you want the oven to begin self-cleaning at 9:00 after you’re finished in the kitchen.
