Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.
Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
¹⁄₂ in. (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.

Oven Vent

1
1. Oven vent (on ceramic glass models)
1
1. Oven vent (on coil element models)
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent.

Oven Door Vent

1. Oven door vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the door vent during certain
oven modes. Some condensation may occur, however this will not
affect cooking performance.

The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating
casseroles.
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the broil
element will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off
in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
1. Press BAKE.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
350°F (177°C). The bake range can be set between 170°F and
500°F (77°C and 260°C).
On some models, press the TEMPERATURE "up" or "down"
arrow pads (buttons) to enter a temperature other than 350°F
(177°C).
