Oven Vent
1. Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and 
should not be blocked or covered. Doing so will cause poor air 
circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Never set 
plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the 
oven vent.
The element can be used when the oven is in use as long as the 
cookware does not extend more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) over the 
element.
Baking and Roasting
Before baking and roasting, position the racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is 
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food 
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
To Bake or Roast:
1.
Push in and turn the oven control knob to the desired 
temperature setting. The OVEN ON and OVEN HEATING 
lights will turn on and the set temperature will appear in the 
display for 5 seconds.
On some models, set the oven selector to BAKE and turn the 
oven temperature control knob to the desired temperature 
setting. The OVEN ON indicator light will turn on and will turn 
off once the oven is preheated.
2.
Place food in oven.
The bake and roasting elements will turn on and off to keep 
the oven temperature at the setting. The OVEN ON indicator 
light(s) will turn on and off with the elements.
3.
Push in and turn oven control knob to OFF when finished.
On some models, turn both the oven selector and oven 
temperature control knob to OFF. The OVEN ON indicator 
light will turn off.
Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the 
temperature when broiling allows more precise control. The lower 
the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and 
unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook 
better at lower broiling temperatures.
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is 
designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The 
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier 
cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on 
the edges to prevent curling.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing 
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very 
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing 
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated 
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Before broiling, position rack according to Broiling Chart. It is not 
necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless 
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler 
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door to 
the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature.
To Broil:
1.
Push in and turn oven control knob to BROIL.
On some models, set the oven selector and oven temperature 
control knob to BROIL. The OVEN ON indicator light will turn 
on.
2.
After broiling, turn the oven control knob to OFF.
On some models, turn both the oven selector and oven 
temperature control knob to OFF. The OVEN ON indicator 
light will turn off.
To Broil at a Lower Temperature:
If food is cooking too fast, turn the oven temperature control 
knob counterclockwise until the OVEN ON indicator light goes 
off.
To broil food slower from the start of cook time, set the oven 
temperature control knob between 170°F and 325°F (77°C and 
163°C). These temperature settings let the broil elements cycle 
and slow cooking results.
