Setting Oven Controls 15
BAKE
Bake may be set with these options: 1) fast preheat; 2) cook
time; or 3) delayed start, achieved through using the cook time
and end time settings.
The meat probe can be used in this mode.
To set the oven for bake at the default oven temperature of
350°F (176°C):
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when working with a hot
oven. When baking, the oven interior and oven racks will
become hot enough to cause burns.
Do not bake foods directly on the oven bottom. To avoid
damaging the oven interior and surfaces, always bake foods in
the oven using bakeware positioned on an oven rack
To set bake with oven temperature of 425°F(218°C):
The convection fan will rotate when bake first starts. This is
normal. The fan will turn off once the oven reaches the set
temperature.
If bake is active without a cook time setting, the oven will remain
on for 12 hours before turning off automatically unless it is
cancelled. To bake longer than 12 hours, see “Changing
Between 12-Hour Energy Saving or Continuous Bake Mode
Settings” on page 12 for instructions.
Baking Tips
•Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, or breads.
•When using a single rack for baking, position the rack so
that the food is in the center of the oven.
•For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks,
place bakeware on oven rack positions 2 and 7 (Figure 16)
and place pans as shown in Figure 17. Use glide rack in
position 2 and a flat rack in position 7.
•Use positions 2 and 7 when baking cookies on multiple
pans. Use glide rack in position 2 and a flat rack in position
7.
•Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware
for proper air circulation.
•Dark or dull pans and glass absorb more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or over browning of foods. To
prevent this it may be necessary to reduce the oven tem-
perature or cook time to prevent over browning of some
foods. Dark pans are recommended for pies. Shiny pans
are recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins.
•Do not open the oven door too often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven.
•For cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection bake
function for best results when using multiple racks.
1. For best results, single rack baking is recommended.

center of oven (Figure 16) using a glide rack and place
pans as shown in Figure 17.
