Until you get used to the settings, use the following as a guide. For best results, start cooking at the high settings; then turn the control knob down to continue cooking. SElTlNG RECOMMENDED USE HI l To start foods cooking. l To bring liquids to a boil.
Home canning information To protect your range: l Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results. l For best results, use the largest surface unit. Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered over the surface unit and which does not extend more than one inch outside surface unit area.
For best air circulation The hot air must circulate around the pans in the oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This results in better baking. l Place the pans so that one is not directly over the other. l Allow 1X-2 inches (4-5 cm) of space around each pan and between pans and oven walls.
Setting the electronic clock When you first plug in the range, or if your electricity was off for a while, the display will show “88:88”, then change to “--:--“. SET and CLOCK will show in the display. 1. Push the Clock button. “12:OO” will show in the display.
Baking/roasting 1. Position the rack(s) properly before turning on the oven. To change rack position, lift rack at front and pull out. For further information, see “Positioning racks and pans” on page 9. 2. Set the Oven Selector to BAKE. 3. Set the Oven Temperature Control Knob to the bakingroasting temperature you want.
Adjusting the oven temperature control Does your oven seem hotter or colder than your old oven? The temperature of your old oven may have shifted gradually without you noticing the change. Your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures.
Custom broil l If food is cooking too fast, turn the Oven Temperature Control Knob counterclockwise until the OVEN HEATING Indicator Light goes off. l If you want the food to broil slower from the start, set the Oven Temperature Control Knob between 170°F and 325°F (77°C and 163°C).
Broiling tips l Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to drain excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface to help prevent spatter, smoke or fire. l Refer to a broiling chart in a reliable cookbook for correct broiling times.
The oven vent Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a vent under the right rear surface unit. You can cook on the unit or keep food warm on it while the oven is on. The vent is needed for air circulation. Do not block the vent. Poor baking/ roasting can result.
The anti-tip bracket The range will not tip during normal use. How- ever, tipping can occur if excessive force or weight is applied to the open door without the anti-tip bracket properly secured. To verify the anti-tip bracket is engaged: l Look to see if the anti-tip bracket is attached with screws to the wall behind the control panel.
