bottom
surface,
place a piece of aluminum foil
slightly larger than the baking dish
or a small cookie sheet on a lower
shelf or unciei.the baking dish to
catch any boilovcrs. It should not
completely cover the shelf as this
would cause uneven heat in the
OVen. A luminum foil should not
be placed on the oven bottom.
If a spillover does occur on the
oven bottom allow the oven to cool
first. Youcan clean the bottom with
soap and water, a mild abrasive
cleanser, soap-filled abrasive pads,
or caustic oven cleaner following
manufacturer'sdirections.
When applying oven cleaner, be
carefulnot to get it on the countertop,
floor or any other surface.

The light bulb is located in the
upper right corner of the oven.
Before replacing the bulb,
disconnect electric power to the
range at the main fuse or circuit
breaker panel. Let the bulb cool
completely before removing it. Do
not touch a hot bulb with a damp
cloth as the bulb will break.
Be sure to install a high
temperature appliance bulb of the
same wattage as the one it replaces.
After broiling, remove the broiler
rack and carefully pour off the
grease. Wash and rinse the rack in
hot, soapy water.
lffood has burned on, sprinkle
the rack while hot with detergent
and cover with wet paper towels or
a dish cloth. That way, burned-on
foods will soak loose while the
meal is being served.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan
and rack in the oven.

The temperature control in your
new ovenhas been carefullyadjusted
to provide accurate temperatures.
However, if this oven has replaced
one you have used for several years,
you may notice a difference in the
degree of browning or the length
of time required when using your
favoriterecipes. Oven temperature
controls have a tendency to "drift"
over a period of years and since
this drift is very gradual, it is not
readily noticed. Therefore, you
may have become accustomed to
your,previous oven which may
have provided a higher or lower
temperature than you selected.
Before attempting to have the
temperature of your new oven
changed, be sure you have followed
the baking time and temperature of
the recipe carefully. Then, afler
you have used the oven a few times
and you feel the oven is too hot
or too cool, there is a simple
adjustment you can make yourself
on the Oven Temperature knob.
Pull the knob off the control shaft
and look at the back side. There is
a disc in the center of the knob skirt
with a series of notcheson the inner
edge next to the knob shaft. One of
these notches is positioned over a
pointer on the side of the knob shaft.
Note position of

~ ~\ Loosen only the
locking screws

Note which notch the pointer is
located in. To make an adjustment,
carefully loosen (approximately
one turn), but do not completely
remove the two screws that hold the
skirt to the knob. Hold the knob
(black or chrome in color) and with
the other hand carefullytilt the skirt
until the notch in the disc clears the
pointer on the knob shaft. To raise
the oven temperature, turn the
dial
in the direction of the arrow for
"Raise~'
To lower the temperature, turn
the
dial
in the direction of arr~w
for "LowerV Each notch will
change the oven temperature
approximately 25°F.
It is suggestedyou move the
adjustment one notch from the
original setting and check oven
performance before making any
additional adjustments.
After the adjustment is made, make
sure the pointer on the knob shafi
is aligned with the notch in the
disc. Press skirt and knob together
and retighten screws so they are
snug, but be careful not to
overtighten.
Re-install knob on range and check
performance. Note that after an
adjustment has been made the
"Of~' and "Broil" positions on
the skirt will not line up with the
indicator mark on the control panel
as it previously did. This condition
is expected and will not create a
problem. NOTE: The expanded
(shaded) area on the skirt is to
allow for this condition.
