YourJenn-Air self-cleaning oven combines the best of twocooking methods, convectionand radiant bake (conventional)bakingor roasting. The Jenn-Airconvectionoven isactuallya conventionaloven thatcirculates heated airwithinthe oven. As both bake and broilheatingelementscycleon and off withthe thermostat,a fan keepsthe heated air circulatingaround the food. The constantlyrecirculatingheated air in the convectionoven strips awaythe layer of cooler airthat surroundsfood. Consequently,manyfoods cook more quickly. Distributedheat makes multiple rack cookingpossible. Convection roastedmeats retaintheir naturalflavor and juicinesswith less shrinkage than radiant bake roasting. In additionto the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking,your JennAir oven is alsoa fine full featured bake and broil oven. You can cookyour "oldfavorite"recipesas you have inthe past. The radiant bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparingvarious foods when convection cooking may not be as beneficial, as when cooking foods in covered casseroles or clay pots. The broil element is convenient for top browningand oven broiling of foods. The time bake feature can be used with eitherthe convectionor radiant bake oven. Beforeyou begincookingwithyour new range, please take a few minutesto readand become familiarwiththe instructionsinthis book. On the following pages you willfind a wealth of informationregarding all aspects of using your new range.

Do not store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquid near range. This also applies to aerosol sprays and aerosol spray cans. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth. Select cookware large enough to properly contain food and avoid boil overs or spillovers, This will save on cleaning and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy splattering or spillovers left on a cook'top can ignite. Pan size is especially important in deep fat frying. Never leave cooktop unattended at Hi heat settings. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, TYPE OF COOKWARE - Avoid pans that are unstable and easily tipped, in choosing pans, look for easily-grasped handles that will stay cool. Pans that are too heavy when filled with food can also be a hazard. Ifpanhandlestwistandcannotbetightened, discard the pan. 5 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. HANDLES - Always turn pan handles to the side or back of the cooktop - not out into the room where they are easily hit. COOKWARE HANDLES SHOULD BE TURNED INWARD AND NOT EXTEND OVER ADJACENT SURFACE BURNERS to minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware. CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above range-children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured. Do not touch grill and surface burner areas or perimeter trim around cooktop or interior surfaces of oven. During and after use, these areas may be hot enough to cause burns. Avoid contact with these areas by clothing or other flammable materials until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces may become hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are the upper door frame and door, oven vent opening and surfaces near the opening, and the top edge of the control panel. Keep all controls "OFF" when units is not in use. Keep vent ducts unobstructed. GREASE - Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. Never leave any cooking operation unattended. Let fat cool before attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease to collect around the cooktop or in the vents. Wipe up spillovers immediately. If the range is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners creating a FIRE HAZARD. Do not use aluminum foil to line aeration tray or burner basin. Restriction of normal air flow may result in unsafe operation. Do not use cookware on the grill section of this appliance. Before servicing your appliance, disconnect power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel and at the electrical receptacle. Always allow hot pans to cool in a safe place out of the reach of small children. A faint gas odor may indicate a gas leak. If a gas odor is detected, cut off the gas supply to the range. Call your installer or local gas company to have the possible leak checked. Never use a match or other flame to locate a gas leak. 24. Glazed cookware - only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,earthenware,or otherglazed cookwareare suitablefor cooktopsurfacewithoutbreakingdue to the sudden change in temperature. Use only such cookware as you know has been approvedfor this purpose. 25. Keep all switches"OFF" when unit is not in use. 26. Avoid placingthe range in a main "trafficpath" or in an isolated locationwith no counterspace nearby. Visualize the oven in use beforeselectinga location. Rememberthatopenovendoorsmay blocka passagewayand create a hazard. 27. Use care when openingoven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removingor replacingfood. 28. Do notheat unopenedfood containers.Build-upof pressuremay cause container to burst and result in injury. 29. Alwaysplace oven racks in desiredlocationwhile oven iscool.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE AND WARNING The California Safe DrinkingWater and Toxic EnforcementAct of 1986 (Proposition65) requiresthe Governor of California to publisha list of substancesknownto the State Californiato cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances. Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the range is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low level exposure to some of the listed substances, includingCarbon Monoxide. Additionally,usersare alsoherebywarned that the burningof gas can resultin low - levelexposureto some of the listed substances, including benzene, formaldehyde and soot, due primarilyto the incompletecombustionof natural gas or liquidpetroleum (LP) fuels. Properlyadjustedburnerswillminimizeincompletecombustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly ventingthe range to the outdoors. .l .t Your new cooktop burnershave been preset for an "average" set of conditions. Regional variances in gas pressure and atmosphericconditions such as height above sea level may affect your initialflame performance, When the control knob is turned ON, gas enters the mixer tube and mixes with air, This air end gas mixture flows to the burner head and is lighted by a spark from the solid state igniter. A propedy adjusted burner with clean pods will light within a few seconds. The coneshaped flame w_llbe clear blue in colorwith a ¢leady defined innercone. There should be no trace of yellow in the flame. A yellow flame indicates an improper mixture of air and gas. If your flame does not resemble the "correct" flame as described above, follow the air shutter adjustment instructions below. The (nfinite surface controls provide flexibility in heat setting selection. Note: The grill can be replaced with an optional surface burner module, Model AG202. Surface Burners In case of prolongedpowerfailure, you can manually light the surface burnerby holding a lighted match near the burner ports and slowly turning the control knob counterclockwise (after depressing) until the gas ignites. There is no fan so smoke and condensation can gather.

Then "season"the surface by wiping on a thin coatingof cookingoil. Remove excess oil by wipingagain with another paper towel. This procedureshouldbe repeated when either: a) cleaning in the dishwashersince the detergent may removeseasoning,or b) anytimea sugar-basedmarinade(forexample,barbecue sauce) is goingto be used. • Preheat the grill on HI for 5 minutes. Preheating improves the flavor and appearanceof meats and quicklysears the meat to help retainthe juices. • Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to prevent damaging the Excalibur ®nonstick gd// grate finish. • Excessive amounts of fat should be tdmmed from meats. Only a normal amount is necessary to producethe smoke needed for that smoked, "outdoor"flavor. Excessivefat can create cleaningand flare-up problems. • Allowing excessive amounts of grease or drippings to constantly flame voids the warranty on the gd//grates. Excessivetiara-upsindicatethateitherthe grill interior needsto be cleaned or that excessiveamountsof fat are in the meat or the meat was not properlytrimmed. • Grease drippingswill occasionallyigniteto produceharmlesspuffsof flame for a secondor two, This is a normal part of the cookingprocess. • Never leave grill unattended during grill operation. Should excess grease cause sustained flare-up: 1. Turn on FAN manually. 2. Immediatelyturn grill controlknobsto OFF position. 3. Remove meat from grill. IMPORTANT • Do not use aluminumfoil insidethe grill area. • Do not use charcoalor wood chipsin the grillarea. • Do not allowburnerbasinto become overloadedwithgrease. Clean aftereach use. • Do not covergratescompletelywith meat. Leave air spacebetween eachsteak, etc. to allow properventilationas well as preventflare-ups. 18 Preheat grill on HI, 5 minutes,for best flavor. i I_ii i/!_i!i 19 With your Jenn-Air grill and accessories, literally any food you've considered "at its best" when prepared outdoorscan now be preparedindoorswith lessfuss and great flavor. The followingsuggestionsare good rulesto followand willincrease yourenjoyment of the equipment. • Be sure to follow directions on page 18 for using the grill. • Suggested cookingtimesand contrelsettingsare appreximate due tovariations in meats. Experience will quickly indicate cooking times as well as which settings work best. • Forbest results,buy top grade meat. Meat that is at least3/4 inch willgrillbetter than thinner cuts. • Score fat on edges of steak, but do not cut into meat, to prevent curling while cooking. • For the attractive "branded"lookon steaks, be sure grill ispreheated. Allow one side of meat to cook to desired doneness, or until juices appear on the top surface, before turning. Turn steaks and hamburgers just once. Manipulating food causes loss of juices. • When basting meats or applying sauces to foods, remember that excessive amounts wind up inside your grill and do not improve the food flavor. Apply sauces duringthe last 15 to 20 minutesof cookingtime unless recipespecifies otherwise. Plus, anytime a sugar-based marinade (for example barbecue sauce) isgoingto be used, the grates shouldbe "seasoned" priorto preheating (sea page 18). • There are many meat marinades whichwill help tenderize less expensive cuts of meat for cooking on the grill. • Ce rtainfoods,such as poultryand non-oily fish, may need some extrafat. Brush with oil or melted butter occasionallywhile grilling. • Use tongswith long handles or spatulasfor turning meats. Do not use forks as these pierce the meat, allowing juices to be lost. • To help retain meat juices, salt after cooking is completed. Be sure the grill is cool and controls are OFF. Grill Grates: These are made from cast aluminum and are coated with the Excalibur_ nonstick finish. • After the grill grates have cooled, wipe off grates with a paper towel. Wash cool grates (DO NOT IMMERSE HOT GRILL GRATES IN WATER) with soap or detergent in hot water in the sink or wash them in the dishwasher. Be sure to remove all food residue before cooking on the grill grates again. 20 Cleaning Grill Grates: nonstick finish. the Grill These are made from cast aluminum which are coated with the Excalibur® • After the grill grates have cooled, wipe off grates with a paper towel. Wash cool grates (DO NOT IMMERSE HOT GRILL GRATES IN WATER) with soap or detergent in hot water in the sink or wash them in the dishwasher. Be sure to remove all food residue before cooking on the grill grates again. • Remove stubborn spots with a plastic mesh puff or pad. For best results, use only those cleaning products which state they are recommended for use when cleaning nonstick surfaces. • If grates were washed in the dishwasher, season with oil prior to grilling. • Do not use metal brushes or abrasive scouring pads or other scrubbers intended to clean outdoor charcoal grills. These will remove the finish as well as scratch the grates. Do not clean in the self-cleaning oven or use oven cleaners on the grates. Grill Burner: The grill burner should be cleaned after each use. It can be cleaned with a soapy S,O.£, pad or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry thoroughly before using again. For heavy soil,b_urder should be cleaned first with a soapy S.O.S. pad, rinsed and dried. Then it can be Clea_i_d in a self-clean oven for 2 hours. Nole: Check to be sure all ports are open. To open clogged directly into each port. Porcelain Burner llasin: This area should ports, insert a toothpick be cleaned after each use of the grill. • To remove light soil, clean area with soapy water or spray with cleansers such as 409 or Grease Relief. For easier clean-up, lay paper towels in grill basin, spray with a household cleanser, and soak for at least a half-hour or longer. • To remove moderate scrubber. • To remove stubborn soil, scrub with Comet, Bon Ami, a soft scrub cleanser or plastic soil, spray with an oven cleaner such as Easy-Off; let soak overnight, wipe clean, rinse and dry. Grease Container: This container collects grease and other liquids created while grilling or using some of the accessories; or spillovers while using the surface burner accessory. is noticeable through container window. Empty when grease • Check the container periodically to prevent grease from spilling over. If this should happen, the grease will flow over the front of the container thus alerting you to empty the container. The container is made from polypropylene and can be washed in hot, soapy water. A few tablespoons of dishwashing liquid and water added to a clean container will make it easier to empty when full. May be washed in dishwasher. 21 Althoughthe burner grate is durable, it will graduallylose its shine and/ordiscolor, regardlessof the care you take of it. This is due to its exposureto the high temperatureof the gas flames. To preservethe pomelainenamel finish as long as possible,have a pan on the grate before you turnon the burner,and lowerthe flame when food reachesthe desired cookingtemperature.

For baked foods that rise and for richer browning, a preheated even is better. Casseroles can be started in a cold oven. Preheating takes from 5 to 9 minutes; place food in oven after OVEN INDICATOR LIGHT cycles off. • Arrange oven racks before turning on oven. Follow suggested rack positions on page 25 and in various baking charts. • Allow about I to IV=inches of space between the oven side walls and pans to allow proper air circulation. • When baking foods in more than one pan, place them on opposite corners of the rack. Stagger pans when baking on two racks so that one pan does not shield another unless shielding is intended. (See above) • To conserve energy, avoid frequent or prolonged doer openings. At the end of cooking, turn oven off before removing food. • Always test for doneness (fingertip, toothpick, sides pulling away from pan), Do not rely on time or brownness as only indicators. • Use good quality baking pans and the size recommended in the recipe. • Dull,dark,enameledorglass panswillgenerallyproducea brown,cdsp crust.Shiny metal pans producea light,goldencrust. • Frozen pies in shiny aluminum pans should be baked on a cookie sheet on rack 2 or be removedto a dullor glass pan. 30 Baking Chart Ch6Colate;2 !aye_ 9" Bundt ,tUbb Pdund Cak_ MuffilnS 9" oaf : 2, 3o;or3 325" 325_ 25-30 300_ 50-65 375? : 1015 350_ 325_ :_0_ 30-35 55_'70 : 1520 : * /kr_c e_tere reck number impliesthatthe offsetrack shouldbe used, ** The times givenare basedon specificbrandsof mixesor recipestested, Actualtimes willdependon the onesyou bake, ***The CONVECT temperature is 25°F lower than recommended on package mix or recipe, 31 • As a general rule, when usingrecipesor prepared mixes developed for a radiant bake oven, set the oven temperature25°F lower than the recipe recommended temperature. Timeswillbesimilartoor a fewminuteslessthan reciperecommended times. The chart on page 31 comparestimes and temperaturesof many baked foods. Use this as a reference. • For betterbrowning,large pans such as cookiesheetsor rectangularbaking pans shouldbe placedlengthwise, front to back, on the rack. Thiscenters the food in front of the convectionfan for better air circulationwhich gives better overall browning. • Cookiesheetsshouldbe withoutsidesand madeof shinyaluminum.The bestsize to usefor cookiesheetsis 15V2"x 12" (overallsize includeshandles). 32 • • • • • Preheating the oven is not necessary. Follow package recommendations for oven temperature, foil covering and use of cookie sheets. Baking times will be similar, See chart below for some exceptions and examples. Center foods in the oven. If more than one food item is being baked or if foods ere being baked on multiple racks, stagger foods for proper air circutatlon. Most foods are baked on rack position #30. For multJple rack baking, use racks #1,3o and 4. However, pizzas should be placed on cookie sheets and baked on rack position #2o, 3 and 4. For best results, bake foods on one rack at a time as described in this manual. However, very good results can be obtained when baking quantities of foods on multiple racks. Quantity cooking provides both time and energy savings. The convection oven is suggested for most multiple rack cooking, especially three rack cooking, because the circulating heated air results in more even browning than radiant. For two rack cooking, the radiant bake oven provides very good baking results especially when pans can be staggered, such as with layer cakes and fresh pies. Many foods can be prepared on three racks at the same time. These are just a few examples: cookies, cupcakes, rolls, biscuits, muffins, pies, frozen convenience foods, pizzas, appetizers, and snack foods. To obtain the best results in multiple rack cooking, follow these suggestions: • • • • • • • • Use temperature and times in this manual as a guide for best results. For two rack baking, rack positions #20 and 4 are best for most baked products but positions #2 and 4 also provide acceptable results. For three rack baking use positions #1,3o and 4. One exception is pizza. (See page 33.) Since foods on positions #1 and 4 will usually be done before foods on position #3o, additional cooking time will be needed for browning foods on the middle rack. An additional minute is needed for thin foods such as cookies. For foods such as biscuits, rolls, or muffins, allow 1 to 2 more minutes. Frozen pies and pizzas, which should be baked on a cookie sheet, need about 2 to 4 more minutes. Stagger small pans, such as layer cake pans, in the oven. Frozen pies in shiny aluminum pans should be placed on cookie sheets and baked on rack positions #1, 3o and 4. Cookiesheetsshouldbeplacedlengthwise, fronttoback, infrontofthefanformore even browning. Oven meals are recommended for energy conservation. Use rack positions #1 and 3o or #2o and 4. 34 • Preheating is not necessary. • Foropenpan roasting,place meat or poultryon the slottedportionofthetwo-piece pan includedwith the oven. Do not add waterto the pan. Use open pan roasting fortendercuts of meat. Lesstendercutsof meat need to be cookedby moistheat in a coveredpan. • For best results, a meat thermometer is the most accurate guide to degree of doneness. The tip of the thermometershouldbe located in the thickestpart of a roast, not touchingfat, bone, or gristle. For turkeys and large poultry products, insertthe tip of the thermometer into the thickestpart of the inner thigh. • Place roast fat side up to allow self bastingof meat during roasting. • Since meats continueto cook after being removedfrom the oven, remove roast from oven when it reaches an internaltemperature about 5 degrees below the temperaturedesired. • For less loss ofjuices and easier carving, allow about 15 minutes "standingtime" after removingmeat from oven. • Forbest resultsin roastingpoultry,thawcompletely. Duetothestructureofpoultry, partiallythawed poultrywill cook unevenly. • If preferred,tender cuts ofmeat can be roastedinthe radiantbake oven byfollowing thegeneralrecommendationsgivenabove. However,meatswill roastmorequickly in the convection oven. • Radiantbake is bestfor lesstender cutsof meat that requirea longer,moistheat method of cooking. Followyour recipe for times and temperaturesfor covered meats. • Meats cooked in cookingbags, dutchovens, or coveredroastingpans are best cookedin the radiantbake oven. • Use meat roastingcharts in standard cookbooksfor recommendedtimes and temperaturesfor roastingin a radiant bake oven. 35 Roasting (Thawed Meats Only) 36 • Tender cuts of meat and poultry can be roastedto a rich golden brown in the convectionoven. Fonowgeneral recommendationsfor roasting. • Refer to convectionmeat roastingchart for recommendedcookingtemperature and time. The chart can serve as a guide to help plan meal serving time. • Minutes per pound will vary according to the size, shape, quality, and initial temperatureof meatas wellas the electricalvoltagein yourarea. Times are based on refdgeratorcold meat. • A large cut of meat will usuallyrequire fewer minutesper poundto roastthan a smaltercut of meat. • Do not use a roastingpan with high sides;use pan providedwith oven. • Do not cover meat. Allowthe circulatinghot air to surroundthe meat and seal in the juices. • Since the breast meat on a large turkey cooks more quickly than the thigh area, place a "foilcap"over the breast area after desired brownness isreached to prevent over browning, (See above) • A stuffed turkey witl require an extra 30 to 60 minutes depending on size. Stuffing should reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Meats (exceptpoultry) may be roastedfrozen to finish. Followthese guidelinesfor the mostsatisfactory results. • Use temperaturesfor roastingfresh meats as recommendedby most cookbooks. Generally, most meats are roasted at 325°F, For best results do not use temperaturesbelow 300°F. • Usetimesforroastingfreshmeatsgiveninyourfavoritecookbooksasapproximate guidesfor roastingfrozen meats. Roastingtimes will vary due to factorssuch as coldnessof meat,size, quality,orcut. In general,roastingtimesfor frozento finish inthe convectionoven willbe approximatelythesame as freshto finishin a radiant bake oven. • The guidelinesgivenfor roasting fresh meats in the convectionoven also applyto roastingfrozen meats. • insert meat thermometermidwayduringthe cookingprocess. 37 The broil element provides flexibility for broiling foods. We recommend you use the grill accessory for most of your broiling. There are some types of foods that do require use of the oven broil element. These include foods such as stuffed lobsters, meringue pies, or other foods which require top browning. 1. Place oven rack on the rack position suggested in the chart. Distance from broiling element depends on foods being prepared. Rack position #40 (offset rack in position #4) is usually recommended unless otherwise stated. 2. Turn SELECTOR knob to BROIL setting. 3. Turn TEMPERATURE knob to 550°F. 4. Place food on roasting pan provided with oven. After top broil element is red place food in oven. Preheating takes a few minutes, or until element glows a bright cherry red. 5. Leave oven door open at broil stop position when broiling. • • • • • • • Tender cuts of meat or marinated meats are best for broiling. This includes rib and loin cuts of steak, ground beef, ham steaks, lamb chops, poultry pieces or fish. For best results, steaks should be at least 1" thick. Thinner steaks should be panbroiled. Do not cover broiler grid with foil since this prevents fat drippings from draining into bottom of pan. Before broiling, remove excess fat from meat and score edges of fat (do not cut into meat) to prevent meat from curling. Salt after cooking. To prevent dry surface on fish or lean meats, brush melted butter on top. Foods that require turning should be turned only once during broiling. Turn meat with tongs to avoid piercing and loss of juices. Cooking times given in the chart are to be used only as a guide. The oven has a variable broil feature which means that the broiling temperature can be varied by selecting a lower temperature setting on the TEMPERATURE knob. Using a lower temperature setting will cause the broil element to cycle on and off. This feature can be used for foods that need to cook more slowly or need less radiant heat. If foods are broiling too fast, the control can be set at a lower temperature to reduce the cooking speed rather than moving the broiler pan to a lower rack. Note: A fan should come on during the BROIL cycle. If the fan does not operate, contact your authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor for repair. 38 Broiling Chart (Broil, 550°F, Preheated) Note: This chart is a suggestedguide. The times may vary with food being cooked. 39 When the oven controlsare set to CLEAN, the oven heats to temperatures that are higherthan those used for cooking. The hightemperaturescausefood soil to burn off and substantiallydisappear. While this occurs, a device in the oven vent helps to consumenormalamountsof smoke. The oven is ventedthroughan openingunderthe air grille on the top of the range. • Remove the broiler pan and grid and any other utensils from the oven. These utensilscannot withstandthe high temperaturesof the cleaningprocess. • The oven rackscan becleanedin the oven. However,theoven rackswilldiscolor, lose shininess,and becomedifficultto slide in and out if leftin the oven duringthe cleaningprocess.

Ifthe odor is strong or objectionable,turn on the ventilationsystemto exhaust odorsoutdoors. • During the cleaning process,do not be alarmed if an occasionalflame is visible through the oven window. This is caused by excessive food soil that was not removedbefore the oven was set to clean. • SINCE THE DOOR AND WINDOW OF THE OVEN AND OVEN VENT WILL GET WARM DURING THE SELF-CLEANING PROCESS, AVOID CONTACT. • Sometypesof soil may disintegratebut leavea lightfilm or heavierdepositof ash. The amountof ashdependsonthe amountofsoilwhichwas in theoven. Afteroven hascooled, this ash may be removedwith a dampsponge. If other dark deposits remain after wiping witha sponge, the time set for the lengthof cleaning was not enough. Increasethe cleaning time for future eleaningsor c(ean morefrequently. The normalcleaningtime is 2 1/2 hours. A maximumof 4 hoursmay be selected if necessary. \ • If rackshave been left in oven duringthe cleaningprocess,they shouldbe treated as follows. After the cleaningprocessis completedand the oven has cooled,buff the undersideofrack edgeswithScotch-Brltescour-pador rublightlythe underside of rack edges witha coatingof vegetableo11.Use a light applicationof oil so itdoes not soilthe oven. As a suggestion,use fingertipsto apply oil. This willmake the cleaned racksslide more easily. • To remove occasionalspillovers between cJeaninge,use a soap-fiJledscouring pad or mildcleanser; rinsewell. It is betterto clean the oven regularlyratherthan wait untilthere is a heavy buildup of soil in the oven. • Duringthe cleaningprocess,the kitchenshouldbe wellventilatedto helpeliminate normalodorsassociatedwith cleaning. • Any attempt to force the self-clean DOOR LOCK LEVER to lock or unlock without electric power applied to the door or with the TEMPERATUllE knob in any position other than CLEAN may resu# in damage to the door locking mechanism. • DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS IN OR AROUND THE SELFCLEANING OVEN AREA. • DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL OR OTHER LINERS IN THE OVEN. 44 When necessary,follow these proceduresto remove appliance for creaningor servicing: 1.
