Oven Temperature Control 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(s) provide accurate temperatures; however, they 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. ADJUSTMENT °F (ADJUSTMENT °C) COOKS FOOD 5° to 10°F (3° to 6°C) ...a little more 15° to 20°F (9° to 12°C) ...moderately more 25° to 35°F (15° to 21°C) ...much more -5° to -10°F (-3° to -6°C) ...a little less -15° to -20°F (-9° to -12°C) ...moderately less -25° to -35°F (-15° to -21°C) ...much less To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration: 1. Press and hold BAKE until the oven display shows the current calibration, for example, "0°F CAL COOK TEMP," if not yet adjusted, or about 5 seconds. 2. On double ovens only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN to select oven. Each oven calibration can be independently set. 3. Press BAKE to increase and BROIL/MAXI//ECONO to decrease the temperature in 5° F (3° C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 35°F (21° C) and -35°F (-21° C). 4. Press START. OVEN USE Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled. During oven use, the heating elements will not remain on, but will cycle on and off throughout oven operation. 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. Aluminum Foil 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 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" (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges. Positioning Racks and Bakeware IMPORTANT: Do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish. RACKS NOTES: ■ Position racks before turning the oven on. ■ Do not position 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 charts as a guide. 5 4 3 2 1 8
