USI NG Y OU R OV E N Using the electronic Minute Timer The Minute Timer does not start or stop the oven. It works like a kitchen timer. It can be set in minutes and seconds up to 9 hours and 55 minutes.
Page 13: Baking With Preheating
Baking with preheating For best results when baking, preheat the oven before placing food in the oven. The oven can be programmed to preheat at any temperature from 170°F to 550°F. The preheat function will reduce preheating time. 1. Position the rack(s) properly before turning on the oven.
Page 14 USI NG Y OU R OV E N When the oven is finished preheating, one tone will sound and the small display will show the programmed set temperature. 4. Put food in the oven. The oven will automatically go from preheating into baking.
Page 15 2. Press the Bake button. 3. Press and hold the Up or Down arrow button until the desired temperature shows on the small display. The display will increase in 5°F amounts. The burner will light in 50-60 seconds. NOTE: If the oven is still warm from an earlier use, the display will show the actual oven temperature and increase in 5°F amounts.
Page 16: Adjusting The Oven Temperature Control
USI NG Y OU R OV E N Adjusting the oven temperature control Although your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster or slower than your old oven. If, after using the oven for a period of time, you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset temp- erature by following these steps:...
Page 17 4. To change the setting, press and hold the Up or Down arrow button until the desired amount of offset appears on the display. You can change the setting up or down 35°F, in 5°F amounts. NOTE: If you have decreased the setting, a minus sign (-) will appear before the number.
Page 18 U SIN G Y O UR OV E N 3. Press and hold the Up or Down arrow button to the setting you want. When the oven turns on, the ON Indica- tor Light will come on. The burner lights automatically in 50-60 seconds.
Page 19: Broiling Tips
Broiling tips • Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to drain excess liquid and grease away from the cooking surface to help prevent spatter, smoke, or fire. • If you broil small quantities, you may want to use a small broiler pan.
Page 20 USI NG Y OU R OV E N Using the electronic MEALTIMER™ control The electronic MEALTIMER control will turn the oven on and off at times you set, even when you are not around. Delayed time baking/roasting is ideal for foods which do not require a preheated oven, such as meats and casseroles.
Page 21 5. Press and hold the Up or Down arrow button until the desired baking/roasting temperature shows on the small display. The display will count down in 1-minute amounts. NOTE: When the oven starts heating, the display will show the actual oven temperature.

Page 25: Using The Self-Cleaning Cycle
Using the Self-Cleaning Cycle The Self-Cleaning cycle saves you from the toil and mess that often come with hand-cleaning the oven interior. Like the other functions of your oven, you operate the Self-Cleaning cycle with the easy-to-use controls. Please review the instructions in this section to keep your oven spotless.
Page 26: Before Setting The Controls
USI NG T H E S E L F- C LE A N ING CYCL E TIPS: • Do not force the door lock. You could bend or break it. The door lock is designed to stay locked until the oven is cool enough to safely open.
Page 27 To delay the start: 1. Press the Clean button and press and hold the Up or Down arrow button until the desired cleaning time shows on the display. • Use 2 hours for light soil. • Use 3 hours to 4 hours maximum for moderate to heavy soil.
Page 28: Special Tips
USI NG T H E S E L F- C LE A N ING CYCL E After the Self-Cleaning cycle is completed: When the oven reaches HI broil temperatures: The LOCKED Indicator Light will go off when the cooling time is over (after 30 minutes or more).
Page 29: How The Cycle Works
How the cycle works The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat to burn away soil and grease. During the cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does for normal baking or broiling. This high heat breaks up the soil or grease and burns it away.
Page 30: Caring For Your Oven
Caring for Your Oven Your oven is designed for easy care. You can do most cleaning with items found around your home. Cleaning your oven whenever spills or soiling occurs will help to keep it looking and operating like new. Do not store flammable materials such as gasoline near this appliance.
