USING thE OVEN

Oven Vent

y Areas near the vent may become hot during operation
and may cause burns.
y Do not block the vent opening at the bottom of the
oven.
y Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may distort
or melt the plastic.
y It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking foods
with high moisture.

BAKE

Use BAKE to prepare foods such as pastries, breads and
casseroles. The oven can be programmed to bake at
any temperature from 170°F (80°C) to 550°F (285°C). The
default temperature is 350°F (175°C).
Setting the BAKE mode
1. Turn the Oven Mode knob to select the BAKE mode.
2. Set the oven temperature. For example, turn the
Time/Temp knob clockwise until 375°F appears in the
display.
3. Touch START.
The word PREHEATING and 100°F appears in the
display. As the oven preheats the temperature is
displayed in 5-degree increments. Once the oven
reaches the desired temperature, a tone sounds.
PREHEATING
Place the food in the oven after preheating. Preheating is
necessary for better cooking results.
4. When cooking is finished, turn the Oven Mode knob
to the OFF position.
5. Remove the food from the oven.

Changing the Temperature while Baking
1. Turn the Time/Temp knob to reset the oven
temperature.
For example, turn the knob clockwise to reset the
temperature from 375°F to 425°F.
2. Touch START.
NOtE
It is normal for the convection fan to operate
periodically throughout a normal bake cycle. This is
to ensure even baking results.
Baking Tips
Follow the recipe or convection food directions for
baking temperature, time, and rack position. Baking time
and temperature will vary depending on the ingredients,
size, and shape of the baking pan used.
y For best results, food should be placed on a single rack
with at least 1" to 1 1/2" of air space between the pans
and oven walls.
y Check for doneness at the minimum time.
y Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish),
heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware
recommended for oven use.
y Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster
with more browning. Insulated bakeware will slightly
lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
NOtE
The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom
from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet
on the rack below the rack you are cooking on.
This is particularly important when baking a fruit
pie or other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit
fillings or other foods that are highly acidic may
cause pitting and damage to the porcelain-enamel
surface and should be wiped up immediately.
