USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
Be sure you understand
how to set the controls properly. Practice
removing
and replacing
the shelves while the oven is cool. Read the information
and
tips on the following pages. Keep this guide handy where you can refer to
it, especially
during the first weeks of using your new range.
Power
Outage--Electric
Ignition
CAUTION:
DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT
TO OPERATE
THE ELECTRIC
IGNITION
OVEN DURING
AN ELECTRICAL
POWER
FAILURE.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit
during a power failure. Gas will not flow unless
the glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure occurs,
the oven burner shuts off and cannot be re-lit until
power is restored.
This is because
the flow of gas
is automatically
stopped and will not resume when
power is restored until the glow bar has reached
operating
temperature.
Power
Outage--Standing
Pilot
An electrical power failure will not affect the
standing oven pilot.
Oven Control
Your oven is controlled
by a single OVEN CONTROL
knob.
It will normally
take 30-90 seconds before the flame comes on. After the
oven reaches the selected temperature,
the oven burner cycles--off
completely,
then on with a full flame--to
maintain
the selected temperature.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature
change of the
air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on
the door glass. These droplets are harmless
and will
evaporate
as the oven continues
to heat up.
Oven
Light
(on some models)
Use the switch on the lower control panel to turn the
light on or off.
