Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on Two Racks
Baking Layer Cakes
For best results when baking cakes on two racks, use the Bake
function, a flat rack in rack position 5, and a flat rack in rack
position 2. If you do not have two flat racks, use a Max Capacity
Oven Rack in rack position 6. Place the cakes on the racks, as
shown. Keep at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the
racks and the front cakes.
Baking Cookies
For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the
Convection Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 5, and a flat
rack in rack position 2.
If you do not have two flat racks, use a flat rack in rack position 2
and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6.
If you do not have Convection Bake, use the standard Bake
function.
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 and Roasting
Temperature Management System
The temperature management system electronically regulates the
oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise
temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil
elements cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow
red when cycling on; the broil element will not. This feature is
automatically activated when the oven is in use.
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 and food may be
placed in the oven immediately, unless preheat is recommended in
the recipe.
Preheating
When the Start keypad is pressed, the oven will begin preheating.
Once 100ºF (38ºC) is reached, the display temperature will
increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When
the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound and the
selected temperature will appear on the display.
The time to preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) will be
approximately 10-15 minutes depending upon the model.
Frozen Bake™
Frozen Bake™ Technology automatically adjusts the
manufacturer’s bake time by combining preheating and baking,
to deliver great packaged frozen food results without the wait.
There are six programmed food options to choose from: Pizza,
Lasagna, Nuggets, Fries, Pie, and Meal. The Frozen Bake™
cycles have been customized to work only with these foods.
When using Frozen Bake™ Technology, it is important that you
follow all manufacturer’s instructions including venting, covering,
stirring or placing on a baking sheet to ensure a good result. When
cooking frozen meals, only cook items that provide instructions
for cooking in a conventional oven. Place your dish in the center
of the rack and select one of the rack positions recommended for
Frozen Bake in the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section and
bake only one package or pan at a time. Use the temperature and
maximum bake time from the package.
A tone will alert you to check the food for doneness before the
cook time is complete and again at the end of the cook time. The
display will prompt you to add additional cook time if needed.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food
in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on
grid in a broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling
temperature.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise
control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the
cooking is. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat,
fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use rack
6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware”
section for more information.
■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to
drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more
information.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is
used or if the oven is heavily soiled.
