CAUTION
FALLING HAZARD
DO NOT store items of interest to children over the
unit. Children climbing to reach items could be
seriously injured.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
When self-cleaning, surfaces may get hotter than
usual, therefore, children should be kept away.
WARNING
This range features a self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the
oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to burn off soil
and deposits. A powder ash residue is left in the bottom of the
oven after completion of the self-clean cycle.
NOTE: DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven.
Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can
damage the porcelain finishes. DO NOT line the oven with
aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn
during a self-clean cycle, causing permanent damage to the oven.
Before Using Range
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove
any visible signs of dirt, oil, and grease which may have remained
from the manufacturing process. Before starting to cook, clean the
range thoroughly with hot, soapy water. There may be some
burn off and odors on first use of the appliance–this is normal.
Glass Rangetop
Clean your glass top before the first time you use it. A
thorough cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recommended.
Oven
IMPORTANT! Before first use, wipe interior with soapy
water and dry thoroughly. Then set the oven selector to
bake, the thermostat to 450°F, and operate for an hour.
All models include:
A broad range of baking and broiling modes—up to
eight cooking modes in all—to make even your most
challenging baking projects a success
Strong, wear-resistant glass ceramic surface for
excellent cleanability
Split baking and broiling elements—which reduces
preheating time and provides greater control and more
even heating
A reversing fan which is two times larger than most on the
market—this allows you to cook foods more thoroughly
and evenly—even when baking large quantities
Four convection modes offering greater air circulation to
shorten cooking times and cook foods more evenly
Three broiling modes including a new low-broil mode for
delicate broiling and top-browning
A profiled, concealed bake element for easier cleaning
This appliance is certified by Star-K to meet strict
regulations in conjunction with specific instructions
found on www.star-k.org
CAUTION
DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven
after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some
parts become extremely hot to the touch!
During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used,
there may be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of
the binder in the high-density insulation used in the oven.
When the insulation is thoroughly cured, this odor will
disappear. During subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may
sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures.
KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE
SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.
CAUTION
FIRE HAZARD
You must carefully check the food during the dehydration
process to ensure that it does not catch fire.
