USING THE RANGE: Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.

Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform

differently than the oven it is replacing.

Bake

The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode

uses heat primarily from the lower burner but also from

the upper burner to cook food. When preparing baked

goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries, always

preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations

for food placement. If no guidelines are provided, center

food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad,

enter a temperature with the number pads, and then

press Start.

Warm

Warm is only available in the upper oven. Warm mode is

designed to keep hot foods hot. Cover foods that need

to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be

heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry

cereal. It is also recommended that food not be kept

warm for more than 2 hours. See the Oven Controls

section for more information.

Broiling Modes

Broil is only available in the lower oven. Always broil with

the oven door closed. Monitor food closely while broiling.

placing food closer to the broil burner increases smoking,

spattering and the possibility of fats igniting.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust

rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the

seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods

and foods that need to be cooked through should be

broiled on a lower rack position or by using the Broil Lo

mode.

that you would like cooked all the way through. To use

It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Convection Bake

Convection Bake is only available in the lower oven. The

Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on multiple

racks at the same time. This mode uses air movement

from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness.

Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so

it is not necessary to adjust the temperature when using

this mode. To use this mode press the Conv Bake pad,

enter a temperature with number pads, and then press

Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast

Convection Roast is only available in the lower oven.

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting

whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses

heat from the lower bake burner along with air movement

to improve browning and reduce cooking time. It is not

necessary to convert temperature. Check food earlier

than the recipe suggested time when using this mode,
