When baking with two or more racks we recom-
mend arranging the pans on the upper rack closer
to the door and the pans on the lower rack closer to
the fans (see the figure below).
Make sure that pans don't touch the internal glass
pane of the door or the back wall of the oven.

Bake function tips
• Use the bake function to cook most food
items that require normal cooking tempera-
tures.
• As much as possible, use only one rack on
position 2 or 3 and center the pans. If using
two racks, place them in positions 1 and 4.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of
foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven
temperature or cook time to prevent over-
browning of some foods. Dark pans are rec-
ommended for pies. Shiny pans are
recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items
like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.
• Do not open oven door often. Opening the
door will reduce the temperature in the oven
and may increase the cook time.
Convection Bake function tips
• The Convection Bake function is optimized for
multiple rack cooking.
• When baking cookies and biscuits on multiple
racks, use positions 1 and 4. When baking
cakes on multiple racks, use positions 1 and 3.
• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans
with no sides or very low side to allow heated
air to circulate around the food.
• Food baked on pans with a dark finish will
cook faster.
• When placing multiple food items in the oven,
allow at least 2” of space between them for
proper air circulation.
• Use tested recipes with times adjusted for
Convection Baking when using this mode.
Check food at the minimum cooking time.
Broil function tips
• Use the Broil function to cook meats that
require direct exposure to radiant heat for
optimum browning results.
• Always allow the oven to preheat before plac-
ing the food in it.
• For proper broiling, use the broiler pan (1) and
its insert (2) to place the meat on as shown in
the figure below. The broiler pan insert con-
NOTE
Always use caution when removing food from the
oven.
WARNING
• Should an oven fire occur, close the oven
door. If the fire continues, throw baking soda
on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not
put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be
explosive and water can cause a grease fire
to spread and cause personal injury.
• Use potholders or oven mitts when working
with a hot oven.
• Consuming raw or undercooked meats,
poultry, seafood or shellfish may increase
your risk of food borne illness.
