Baking
• 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 Shelves
The shelves are designed
with stop-locks
so when
placed
correctly
on the
shelf supports,
they
will
stop before coming com-
pletely out of the oven and
will not tilt when you are
removing
food
from them
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
a shelf
from
the
oven,
pull
the
shelf
toward you, tilt the front end
upward
and pull the shelf
o_.
To replace,
place the shelf
on the shelf
support
with
the
stop-locks
(curved
extension
under the shelf)
facing
up and 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.
Shelf Positions
The
oven
has
five
shelf
supports
for
baking
and
roasting--A
(bottom),
B, C, D
and E (top)° It also has a spe-
cial tow shelf position,
(R) for
roasting
extra
large
items,
such as a large turkey.
The
shelf is not designed
to slide
out at this position.
The shelf
positions
for cooking are sug-
gested in the Baking,
Roasting
and Broiling sections.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature
change
of
the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form
on the door glass. These droplets are harmless
and
will evaporate
as the oven continues
to heat up.
Do not lock the oven
door with the latch
during
baking.
The latch
is used for self-cleaning
only.
Your oven temperature
is controlled
very accurately
using an oven control system°
It is recommended
that
you operate
the range for a number
of weeks
using
the time given on recipes
as a guide to become famil-
iar with your
new oven's
performance.
If you think
an adjustment
is necessary,
see the Adjust the Oven
Thermostat
section.
How to Set Your Range for Baking
To avoid
possible
burns,
place the shelves
in the
correct
position
before you turn the oven on_
1. Press the BAKE pad.
2. Press the INCREASE
or DECREASE
pad until the
desired
temperature
is displayed.
The word "ON" and "100 °'' (38°C) will be displayed.
As the oven
heats
up, the display
will show
the
changing
temperature_
When the oven reaches the
set temperature,
a tone will sound.
3. Press the CLEAR/OFF
pad when baking is finished
and then remove the food from the oven.
To
change
the
oven
temperature
during
the BAKE
cycle,
press the BAKE pad and then
the INCREASE
or DECREASE
pad to get new
temperature.
Oven Shelves
Arrange
the oven shelf
or
shelves
in
the
desired
locations
while
the oven
is cool. The
correct
shelf
position
depends
on the kind of
food and the browning
desired.
As a general
rule, place
most foods
