Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure
an accurate baking temperature. For the first few uses, follow
your recipe times and temperature recommendations carefully.
If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your
recipe times, you may adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter
or cooler than the temperature displayed.
Important note:
Do not use oven thermometers (such as those found in
grocery stores) to check the temperature settings inside the
oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much as 20ºF
to 40°F (11ºC to 23ºC) from actual temperatures.
If at any time during the process of adjusting the oven
temperature feature you decide not to make the change,
press
once before the acceptance beep tone.

Cleaning the Oven
Important: To help remove excessive spills from the oven bottom,
the lower element may be tilted up. Remove lowest oven rack
before attempting to raise the element. Handle the element only
when the oven is completely cool. Do not raise the element more
than 4 or 5 inches (See
Figure 7: Exposed bake elements
Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any
aluminum foil when cleaning.
Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other parts
of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will alter heat
distribution, produce poor baking results, and may cause
permanent damage to the oven interior.
Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside
the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center
of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil
on. Clean with soap and water. These areas are shown in
white (See
. The
Figure 8: Hand clean oven door frame; avoid rubbing gasket.
Do not clean the oven door gasket (See
woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
remove the gasket.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content
(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling)
to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even
after cleaning.
Remove any excessive spills. Spills on the oven bottom
should be wiped up and removed. Use hot, soapy water and
a cloth.
