USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
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 book handy where you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your new range.
Electric Ignition

The oven burner and broil burner are lighted by
electric ignition.
To light either burner, press the pad for the desired
function then press the INCREASE or DECREASE
pad until the desired temperature is displayed. The
burner should ignite within
30-90
seconds.
After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the
oven burner cycles—off completely, then on with a
full flame-to keep the oven temperature controlled.
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed
with stop-locks so when
placed correctly on the
shelf supports, they
will
stop before coming

will not tilt
when you are removing
food from them or
placing food on them.
