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 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.
