BAKEWARE
Hot air must be able to circulate around food to cook evenly, so
allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use
the following chart as a guide.
Bakeware
The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent
will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning
results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt
or burn near the oven vent.
Baking
The oven automatically regulates the heat levels and both the top
and bottom elements cycle on and off accordingly during preheat
and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal
cooking results.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking, position the racks according to the “Positioning
Racks and Bakeware” section.
1. Press BAKE. “BAKE” will flash, and “000” will appear in the
display.
2. Press or press and hold MORE or LESS.
350°F (175°C) will appear when either pad is first pressed.
Press MORE or LESS to raise or lower the temperature in 5°
increments.
3. Press BAKE again or wait 4 seconds. Bake will stop flashing
and light in the display.
100°F (38°C) or the actual temperature will display. The
temperature will rise in 5° increments until the preset
temperature is reached.
4. For best results, allow oven to fully preheat.
When the set oven temperature is reached, 1 long beep will
sound.
To recall the set temperature during preheat, press the BAKE
pad.
To change the oven temperature during preheat, press BAKE
twice, then MORE or LESS until the desired temperature is
displayed.
To change the oven temperature during cooking, press BAKE,
then MORE or LESS until the desired temperature is
displayed.
5. When cooking is finished, press CANCEL.
Preheating
Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as
room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for
the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven
temperature to differ.
