No, your oven has been factory tested and calibrated.
For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and
temperatures carefully. If you still think your new
oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the oven
temperature yourself to meet your specific cooking
needs. Refer to the Oven Temperature Adjustment
section in this manual for easy instructions on how to
adjust your thermostat.

Your new range is designed to maintain a tighter
control over your oven's temperature. You may hear
your oven's heating elements click on and off more
frequently on your new oven. This is NORMAL.

This means that the product has just been plugged
in, or that it has experienced a power interruption. To
clear the flashing time, press any button and reset the
clock if needed.

o v e n c a v i t y ?
Never use aluminum foil to line the bottom or sides of
the oven or the warming drawer. The foil will melt and
stick to the bottom surface of the oven and will not be
removable. Use a sheet pan placed on a lower oven
rack to catch drippings instead. (If foil has already
melted onto the bottom of the oven, it will not interfere
with the oven's performance.)
C a n I u s e a l u m i n u m
Do not cover racks with aluminum foil. Covering
entire racks with foil restricts air flow, leading to poor
cooking results. Use a sheet pan lined with foil under
fruit pies or other acidic or sugary foods to prevent
spillovers from damaging the oven finish.
Foil may be used to wrap food in the oven or
warming drawer, but do not allow the foil to come
into contact with the exposed heating/broiling
elements in the oven. The foil could melt or ignite,
causing smoke, fire, or injury.

Over time, the racks may become hard to slide in
and out. Apply a small amount of olive oil to the ends
u s i n g i t ?
of the racks. This will work as a lubricant for easier
gliding.
W h a t s h o u l d I d o f o r h a r d t o r e m o v e s t a i n s o n m y
c o o k t o p ?
The cooktop should be cleaned after every use to
prevent permanent staining. When cooking foods with
high sugar content, such as tomato sauce, clean the
stain off with a scraper while the cooktop is still warm.
Use an oven mitt when scraping to prevent burns.
Refer to the MAINTENANCE section of this owner's
manual for further instruction.
