Baking

Baking

Baking allows you to cook foods the same way as a conventional oven, using a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 250°F to 450°F may be set.

A fan gently circulates heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food. Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook slightly faster than in regular oven cooking.

Before you begin, make sure the turntable is in place. NOTE: Metal tray is available, see accessories page.

Defrosting Tips

■ Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be time defrosted in the package, but foods should be taken out of the package when using Defrost By Food Type. Closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented after food has partially defrosted. Plastic storage containers should be partially uncovered.

■ Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.

■ Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to sit out for more than one hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.

■ For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as roasts, use Defrost By Time. Be sure large meats are completely defrosted before cooking.

■ When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a few minutes.

Microwave Sensor Cooking

The sensor feature detects the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food. Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion— it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If food is undercooked after the first countdown, use Cook By Time for additional cooking time.

The proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking.

■ Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers—they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.

■ Be sure the outside of the cooking containers and the inside of the oven are dry before placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam can mislead the sensor.

■ Beverages are best heated uncovered.

To Use All Sensor Programs

Upper Oven microwave mode features sensor cooking. It automatically senses when food is done and shuts itself off—eliminating the need to program cook times and power levels.

1. Press the Microwave pad and turn the selector dial to Cook By Food Type or Reheat. Press the selector dial to enter.

2. Turn the selector dial to select the food you want. Press the selector dial to enter.

3. Press the selector dial or press the Start/Pause pad to start cooking.

Do not open the oven door until time is counting down in the display or the microwave stop cooking. If the door is opened, close it and press Start/Pause immediately.

If the food is not done enough, use Cook By Time in the microwave selector to cook for more time.

NOTE: Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion—it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food.

■ If you have been speedcooking and the oven is

already hot, it may indicate that it is too hot for sensor cooking. Of course, you can always continue with Cook By Time.

NOTE: If the oven is too hot then it will automatically

change to time cooking.

■ To shorten or lengthen the cook time, wait until the time countdown shows in the display. Then turn the selector dial to add or subtract time.

■ If you open the door while Sensor Cooking, Sensor Error will appear. Close the door, press Start/Pause to begin again.

Notes about the Reheat program:

Reheated foods may have wide variations in

temperature. Some areas may be extremely hot.

It is best to use Cook By Time and not Reheat for these

foods:

■ Bread products

■ Food that must be reheated uncovered.

■ Foods that need to be stirred or turned.

■ Foods calling for a dry look or crisp surface after reheating.

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.

Baking and Roasting Modes

Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the type and quantity of food you are preparing. 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.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but also from the upper element to cook food. To use this mode press the Bake pad, turn the selector dial to set the oven temperature and press to enter, then press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake 1 Rack

The Convection Bake 1 Rack mode is intended for single rack cooking. This mode uses heat from the lower element and also the upper and rear elements, along with air movement from the convection fan to enhance evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the temperature when using this mode. To use this mode press the Convection Bake pad, turn the selector dial to select 1 Rack and set the oven temperature, and press to enter, then press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake Multi Rack

The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses heat primarily from the rear element but also heat from the upper and lower elements, along with air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the temperature when using this mode. Baking time might be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the Convection Bake pad, turn the selector dial to select Multi Rack and set the oven temperature and press to enter, then press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements along with air movement from the convection fan 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, or use a meat probe. To use this mode press the Convection Bake pad, turn the selector dial to select Roast and set the oven temperature and press to enter, then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats igniting. Broiling on rack position 6 is not recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by using Broil Lo. For best performance center food below the broil heating element.

Broil Hi

The Traditional Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of meat and/ or foods you prefer less done on the interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad, turn the selector dial to Hi and press to enter, and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broil Lo

The Traditional Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper element to cook food thoroughly while also producing surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way through. To use this mode press the Broil pad, turn the selector dial to Lo and press to enter, and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Proof

Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and proofing) bread dough. Press the Options pad, turn the selector dial to select Proof and press to select, then press Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out. Bread will rise more rapidly than at room temperature. Note that for double wall ovens, proof cannot be run when running a clean mode in the lower oven.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to 3 hours. To use this mode, press the Options pad, turn the selector dial to select Warm and press to select, then press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to 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.

Cooking Guide (30” Oven)

*When baking four cake layers at a time, use racks 2 and 4. Place the pans as shown so that one pan is not directly above another.

Cook food thoroughly to help protect against food borne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations for food safety can be found at www.IsItDoneYet.gov. Make sure to use a food thermometer to take food temperatures.

Racks

Your oven has six rack positions. Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is at least 1%" between pans to allow sufficient space for air to flow.

Oven Racks

Your oven may have extension racks and/or traditional flat racks.

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Extension Racks

Extension racks have an install feature that locks into the rack supports (guides) on both sides. Once the install feature is locked into place, always pull the rack out, by its upper front rail, to its full extension stop position, when placing or removing cookware.

If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your oven. Remove the rack from the oven, remove debris in the slide tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

To order additional graphite lubricant, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.

To Remove An Extension Rack:

1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the oven.

2. Grasp the rack by both its upper front rail and its lower handles on two sides and lift straight up to unlock the rack from the rack supports.

3. Firmly holding onto both the upper front rail and lower handles on both sides, pull the rack forward. Grasp the rack on both sides if necessary. Then remove it from the oven.

To Replace An Extension Rack:

1. Place the rear portion of the rack onto the rack supports (guides) as shown in the picture.

2. Hold the upper front rail and lower handles and push the rack all the way in until the install feature locks into the front rack support.

If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe the oven rack supports with vegetable oil. Do not wipe oil on the rack slides.

NOTE: Using other cooking oils will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides. To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Traditional Flat Racks

The racks have stops so that when placed correctly on the supports they will stop before coming completely out and will not tilt. When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out until it stops.

To Remove a Rack

Pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To Replace a Rack

Tilt the front of the rack up, hook the rear locating posts under the rack supports, push the rack back (past the stop-locks) and lower it into position. Push the rack all the way in.

Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean. Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges.

NOTE: Using other cooking oils will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides. To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth

CAUTION Use caution when removing a rack from lowest position as door may be hot.

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

CAUTION Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.

Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2” from oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

Cookware

Cookware Guidelines

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.

Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25° F next time.

Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.

Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.

Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.

Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Cleaning The Oven

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

Helpful Hints

An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking soda and water keeps the inside fresh. Also we recommend against using cleaners with ammonia or alcohol, as they can damage the appearance of the oven. If you choose to use a common household cleaner, first apply the cleaner directly to a clean cloth, then wipe the soiled area.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel—they will damage the finish.

Oven Exterior

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

If stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

To inquire about purchasing cleaning products including stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.

How To Clean The Upper Oven Interior

Clean the inside of the oven often for proper heating performance.

Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel, others may require a warm soapy cloth. Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth; then rinse with a damp cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven walls.

Never use a commercial oven cleaner on any part of your oven.

Do not clean the inside of the oven with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad, causing electrical shock.

Door Seal

It’s important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the oven. Use only mild, nonabrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.

Removable Turntable

The area underneath the turntable should be cleaned frequently to avoid odors and smoking during a cooking cycle.

The turntable can be broken if dropped. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water. Dry completely and replace.

To replace the turntable, place its center over the spindle in the center of the oven and turn it until it seats into place. (Make sure the smooth side of the turntable is facing up and that its center seats securely on the spindle.)

Cooking Trays And Baking Sheet

To prevent breakage, allow the trays to cool completely before cleaning. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water or in the dishwasher.

Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasives, as they may damage the finish. A soap-filled scouring pad may be used to clean the trays.

How To Clean The Lower Oven Interior

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.

Steam Clean Mode

Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water and a lower cleaning temperature than Self Clean.

To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of the oven. Close the door. Press the Options pad, select Steam Clean, and then press Start. The oven door will lock. You can not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the end of the steam clean cycle the door will unlock. Wipe out any excess water and any remaining soil.

Self Clean Mode

Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode. Self-clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature. Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe up grease and soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver racks and any cookware or other items should all be removed from the oven before initiating a self-clean cycle. Close the door. Press the Options pad, select Self Clean, and a default self-clean time is displayed.

The clean time can be changed to 3:00, 4:00, or 5:00 hours by using the selector dial. For heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press the Start pad immediately after selecting the Self Clean. The oven will turn off automatically when the self-clean cycle is complete. The door will stay locked until the oven has cooled down. After the oven has cooled down wipe any ash out of the oven.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

Lower Oven Racks

The racks that were provided with your oven (dark enameled racks, not shiny) may remain in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle without being damaged.

To manually clean racks, use warm, soapy water. Make sure not to wash the rack slides on an extension rack.

If racks become more difficult to remove from the oven, put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the oven rack supports. Do not wipe the oil on an extension rack slide.

NOTE: Using other cooking oils will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides. To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Periodically, after several self-clean cycles, the extension rack slides may need to be lubricated using the graphite lubricant shipped with your wall oven. To order additional temperature probes, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.

1. Remove extension rack from the oven. See the Extension Oven Racks section.

2. Fully extend the rack on a table or countertop. Newspaper may be placed underneath the rack for easy clean up.

3. If there is debris in the slide tracks, wipe it away using a paper towel. NOTE: Any graphite lubricant wiped away must be replaced.

4. Shake the graphite lubricant before opening it. Starting with left slide mechanism of the rack, place four (4) small drops of lubricant on the two (2) bottom tracks of the slide close to the bearing carriers.

5. Repeat for the right slide mechanism of the rack.

6. Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

7. Replace the cap on the lubricant and shake it again. Turn the rack over and repeat steps 3, 4, 5 and 6.

8. Close the rack, turn rack right-side-up and place in the oven. See the Extension Oven Racks section.

9. Repeat above steps for each rack.

NOTE: Do not spray with cooking spray or other lubricant sprays.
