SAFETY NOTICE  
Teach children not to play with the controls  
or any other part of the oven.  
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic  
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of  
California to publish a list of substances known to  
the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive  
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers  
of potential exposure to such substances.  
Never leave the oven door open when you are  
not watching the oven.  
. Always keep combustible  
coverings, curtains  
or drapes a safe distance from your oven.  
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments  
The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning  
ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon  
monoxide during the cleaning cycle.  
Exposure can be minimized by venting with an  
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.  
while using the  
Be careful when  
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the  
oven. Flammable material could be ignited if  
brought in contact with hot heating elements and  
may cause severe burns.  
DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE  
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER  
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN  
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER  
APPLIANCE.  
When using electrical appliances, basic safety  
precautions should be followed, including the  
following:  
Have the installer show you the location of the  
circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

pot holders touch hot heating elements. Do not  
use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can  
catch fire on a hot heating element.  
sure your appliance is properly installed and  
by a qualified technician in accordance  
with the provided Installation Instructions.  
Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot  
holders and other linens a safe distance from  
your oven.  
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of  
your oven unless it is specifically recommended  
in this guide. All other servicing should be  
referred to a qualified technician.  
Always keep wooden and plastic utensils  
and canned food a safe distance away from  
your oven.  
Before performing any service, DISCONNECT  
THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE  
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL  
BY REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING  
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.  
For your safety, never use your appliance for  
warming or heating the room.

Be sure the oven is securely installed in a  
cabinet that is firmly attached to the house

element. The convection fan circulates the heated air  
evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry  
are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a  
rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air  
will be circulated over, under and around the food  
being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly  
for a moist and tender product while, at the same  
time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.  
In convection bake, heat comes from the heating  
element in the rear of the oven. The convection fan  
circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the  
fed. Preheating is not necessary with foods having  
time of over 15 minutes.  
In regular baking, the bottom oven element heats  
the air in the oven which then cooks the food.  
Convection Roast  
Large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.  
Roasting pans with low sides to allow air movement  
around food.  
Convection Bake  
Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked  
on all shelves.  
Regular Roast  
Less tender cuts of meat because these need to cook  
a long time in liquid to become tender.

Cookware for Convection Cooking  
Paper and Plastic  
Before using your convection oven, check to see  
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in  
the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave  
space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not  
touch each other or the walls of the oven.  
Heat-resistant paper  
plastic containers that are  
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in  
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is  
resistant to temperatures of  
can also be used.  
When baking cookies, you will get the best results  
if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with  
low sides.  
Metal and Glass  
Any type of cookware will work in your convection  
oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should  
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well

Cookies  
When baking cookies, flat

Also see the Multi-Shelf Baking section.  
Pies  
Cakes  
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause  
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.  
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe  
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier  
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than  
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may  
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size  
used is the one recommended.  
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or  
pans  
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil

on an aluminum cookie sheet  
since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away

REGULAR ROASTING WITH THE PROBE  
See the Regular Roasting Guide (upper oven only)  
Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe  
Your double oven has a probe in the upper oven only.  
Use the handles of the probe and plug when  
inserting and removing them from the meat and  
wall outlet. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable  
when removing the probe—they might damage it.  
TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE  
SURE FOOD IS COMPLETELY DEFROSTED  
BEFORE INSERTING.  
A temperature probe has been provided for use in your  
new oven. This probe is designed to withstand high  
temperatures. Temperature probes provided with other  
products, such as those used  
microwave ovens,  
may not be designed to withstand high temperatures.  
Use of probes other than the one provided with this  
product may result in damage to the probe.  
Cable  
Probe  
Never leave your probe inside the oven during a  
self-cleaning cycle.  
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal  
food temperature is the best test for doneness. The  
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting  
by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.  
When the internal temperature of the food reaches the  
temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.

The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet  
or the broiler pan grid, follow these steps for proper  
probe placement.  
2. Insert the probe  
into the meat up to  
the point marked  
off with your finger.  
It should not touch

Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started  
without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per

Questions and Answers  
When broiling, is it necessary to always use a

Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown  
as they should’?  
A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the

be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element for  
10 minutes before placing broiler pan with food in

A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to  
evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Turn the  
meat with tongs; piercing the meat with a fork also  
allows the juices to escape. When broiling poultry  
or fish, brush each side often with butter.  
However, spraying the broiler grid lightly with a  
vegetable cooking spray before cooking will make  
clean-up easier.
