It is recommended that distilled water be used. The water
reservoir holds 8 cups (2,000 mL) of water. For more information,
see the “Steam-Assisted Cooking” section.
If you will be on vacation or not using your range for an extended
period of time, you should drain the water from the reservoir. See
the “Water Reservoir Drain Operation” section.
Descale
Calcium deposits or scale from water may build up in the steam
generator over time. The descale indicator light will come on
when it is necessary to descale. Descale the steam generator
following the instructions provided in the “Descaling” section of
“Range Care”.
OvenTimer
The Oven Timer can be set in hours and minutes and counts
down the set time.
■ The Oven Timer will not turn off the oven, except during the
self-clean cycle.
■ The Oven Timer is not an independent timer, it can only be
used with cooking functions.
When the set time ends, “0:00” will appear on the display and a
tone will sound 4 times. Four reminder tones will sound every
minute and the time will count up in 1-minute increments to let you
know how much time has elapsed since the set time ended. The
time will continue to count up until you reset or turn off the oven.
OVENUSE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.
PositioningRacks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: Do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven
door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain
finish.
