CARE AND CLEANING
Aluminum Foil, Aluminum Utensils, and Oven
Liners
WARNING
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven
bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materi-
als such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, caus-
ing a fire hazard.
• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line
the oven bottom. The high heat of the oven can
melt these materials to the oven cavity and ruin the
oven. These types of materials can also reduce the
effectiveness of the air circulation in the oven and
produce poor baking results. Only use aluminum
foil as recommended in this manual. Improper in-
stallation of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock or fire.
• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum
is much lower than that of other metals. Care must
be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used.
• Oven racks - Do not use aluminum foil to cover the
oven racks. Using a liner in the oven restricts the
heat and air flow needed to obtain the best possi-
ble cooking results for any oven.
CAUTION
Do not to use harsh abrasives on the glass panes
as the reflective surface plays a role in the function
of the oven. Do not place glass in dishwasher. Hand
wash only with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.
When dry polish with a soft cloth and ensure the
glass is dry before reassembly.
Replacing the Oven Light
CAUTION
Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are cool
before replacing the oven light.
The interior oven light is located at the rear of the
oven cavity and is covered by a glass shield. The glass
shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.
To replace the oven interior light bulb:
1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or
unplug the appliance.
2. Remove interior oven light shield by turning a quar-
ter turn counter-clockwise.
3. Replace bulb with a new T-4 type Halogen 25 watt
appliance bulb.
NOTE
Wear a cotton glove or use a paper towel when
installing a new bulb. Do not touch the new bulb with
your fingers when replacing. This will shorten the life
of the bulb.
4. Replace glass oven light shield by rotating clock-
wise.
5. Turn power back on again at the main source (or
plug the appliance back in).
6. Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.
