Getting to Know Your Oven
The oven light will automatically activate when the oven is opened and deactivate when
the oven door is closed.
Also if the oven is set for convection mode, then the convection fan will deactivate when
the oven door is opened, and activate when the oven door is closed.
The oven features multi level regular baking/broiling in timed or un-timed modes. For
levels simultaneously. For traditional baking the convection feature should be OFF.
Your oven has a temperature range of 150° F to 550° F (65°C to 290°C). The oven
Cycling Light glows until oven reaches the high end of heating cycle, then cycles off
and on during cooking. The average of the high and low levels of the heating cycles will
normal and standard in the appliance industry. See Pages 22 and 23 for recommended
baking and roasting times and temperatures.
Note:
1) Only Self Clean Models - Do not engage the self clean oven door latch when not
in self clean mode, as it is possible the oven door safety interlock will activate at
high oven temperatures and damage could occur to the locking mechanism.
2) See Page 23 for recommended broil times and settings.
3) Temperatures in ovens may shift over time and it is natural for the user to gradually
adapt cooking times accordingly. Then, when baking in a new oven with proper calibration,
results may not be as expected based on previous baking habits. Oven cavity sizes also
vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and could affect cooking results slightly. Therefore,
it may take some time to familiarize yourself with your new oven and some adjustment
in cooking times may be necessary.
