Setting Oven Controls
Setting Preheat
For best baking performance use the Preheat feature. The
Preheat feature will bring the oven up to the set cooking temper-
ature. A reminder tone will sound indicating when the set
temperature is reached and to place the food in the oven.
For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the standard bake and convection
bake functions for best results.
When the oven is finished preheating the preheat feature will
perform like the Bake feature and continue to maintain the oven
set temperature until cancelled.
Preheat may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F
(77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior, oven
racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

For best results:
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits and breads.
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 overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recom-
mended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes,
cookies and muffins.
For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the regular bake function for best
results.

Important note:
• When setting Bake or any cooking feature that preheats the
oven (except Broil), the convection fan will turn on and stay
on until the oven reaches set temperature.
• Preheating is not necessary when roasting or cooking casse-
roles.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the regular bake function for best
results.
Figure 20: Rack positions and pan spacing recommendations
Radiant baking rack positions:
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
• When baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place racks in
positions 2 and 4.
• When baking using 2 oven racks, position bakeware as
shown in Figure 20. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space
between bakeware for proper air circulation.
