Before UsingYour Oven
Be sure you understand how to set the control

while the oven is cool. Read the information and tips
on the following pages° Keep this manual handy where

within 30-90 seconds.
After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the
oven burner cycles--off completely, then on with a
