Vent Fan
The vent fan has 4 speeds: low, medium, high and boost.
To protect the oven, the vent fan will automatically turn on at high
speed if the temperature from the range or cooktop below gets
too hot. It may stay on for up to 1 hour to cool the oven. When
this occurs, the vent fan cannot be turned off. If the Fan button is
pressed, a reminder will appear in the display, explaining the
automatic fan activation.
To Operate Vent Fan: Press FAN repeatedly to cycle through the
settings: low, medium, high, boost and off.
Cooktop Light
The cooktop light has 3 brightness settings: low, medium and
high.
To Turn Light On/Off: Press LIGHT button repeatedly to cycle
through the settings: low, medium, high and off.
Night Light
The Night Light control button turns on the cooktop light at the
lowest setting. While the Night Light is on, the Light control may
still be used to brighten the cooktop. When the cooktop light is
turned off, the Night Light will still be on. The Night Light can only
be turned on or off with the Night Light button.
OVEN USE
A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off
the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable
and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted
to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food,
causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks
the food.
■
Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door.
■
Do not operate oven when it is empty.
■
The turntable must be in place and correct side up when
oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken.
See “Assistance or Service” section to reorder.
■
Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in
oven.
■
Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including
brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in
oven.
■
Do not use the oven for canning, sterilizing or deep frying.
The oven cannot maintain appropriate temperatures.
■
Paraffin wax will not melt in the oven because it does not
absorb microwaves.
■
Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from
oven.
■
Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended
cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes
stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
■
Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover
poached eggs and allow a standing time.
