IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven 
temperature because opening the oven door and element or 
burner cycling may give incorrect readings.

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook 
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature 
calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or 
Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed 
amount. No sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed 
amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

1. Press and hold BAKE for 5 seconds until the oven display 

shows the current calibration, for example “00.”

2. Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad(s) to increase or to 

decrease the temperature in 10°F (6°C) amounts. The 
adjustment can be set between 30°F (18°C) and -30°F
(-18°C).

3. Press START/ENTER.

Odors are normal when the range is new. This happens the first 
time the oven is used.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to 
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to 
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well 
ventilated room.

IMPORTANT: Do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, 
liners or cookware because permanent damage will occur to the 
oven bottom finish.

■

Do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.

■

Do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to 
move freely for best cooking results.

■

To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is 
at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned 
up at the edges.

IMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven 
door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain 
finish.

Position racks before turning the oven on. Do not move racks 
with bakeware on them. Make sure racks are level. To move a 
rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift 
out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. 
(5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the 
following chart as a guide.
