Unlock Lock
TO REMOVE:
1. Slide the tab at the center front of the oven bottom
to the left.
2. Lift the oven bottom up and out.
TO REPLACE:
1. Slip the oven bottom into the oven so the tabs in
the rear of the oven bottom fit into the slots in the
oven back.
2. Lower the front of the oven bottom into place and
slide the front tab to the right to lock the oven
bottom into place.
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom
from excessive spillovers. This is particularly
important when baking a fruit pie or other foods with
high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or foods that are
acidic (such as milk, tomatoes or sauerkraut, and
sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitt'mg
and damage to the porcelain enamel surface.
To protect the oven bottom surface, place a piece
of aluminum foil slightly larger than the baking dish
or a small cookie sheet on a lower shelf or under the
baking dish to catch any spillovers. It should not
completely cover the shelf as this would cause uneven
heat in the oven. Aluminum foil should not be placed
on the oven bottom.
If a spillover does occur on the oven bottom,
allow the oven to cool first. You can clean the oven
bottom with soap and water, a mild abrasive cleanser
or soap-filled abrasive pads. Rinse well.
MINOR ADJUSTMENTS YOU CAN MAKE
Broil and Oven Burner Air Adjustment Shutters
Air adjustment shutters for the burner regulate the
flow of air to the flames.
To adjust the air shutter, remove the oven bottom.
Turn the burner full on and check the flames. The
burner flames should not flutter or blow away from
the burner. They should be blue in color with no trace
of yellow. Foreign particles in the gas line may cause
an orange flame at first, but this will soon disappear.
If the flames are yellow or flutter, open the air shutter
more. If they blow away from the burner, close the air
shutter more.
