14 Setting Oven Controls
Bake
Use bake to cook most food items that require normal cooking
temperatures. Fully preheat the oven before baking items like
cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads. Bake may be set with the
following options:
• Rapid preheat
• Probe
• Cook time and cook time with end time setting
The following oven temperature settings apply will to the
bake feature:
• Factory default bake setting: 350°F (176°C)
• Minimum bake setting: 170°F (76°C)
• Maximum bake setting: 550°F (288°C)
To set the oven for bake at the default oven temperature of
350°F(176°C):
When bake is activated the oven will begin preheating and the
convection fan will run until preheating is complete. When the
oven reaches set temperature the control will sound a tone indi-
cating the oven is ready.
To stop bake at any time press CANCEL.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when
working with a hot oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
racks will become hot enough to cause burns.
Do not cook foods directly on the oven bottom. To avoid
damaging the oven interior and surfaces, always cook foods in
the oven using cookware positioned on an oven rack
To set bake with oven temperature of 425°F(218°C):
To stop bake at any time press CANCEL.
IMPORTANT! A cook time setting may be added to a baking
function any time after starting a bake. Refer to “Cook Duration”
on page 17 for complete instructions.
• To add or change any cook settings once the oven is
baking you can make temperature changes using the hi
+
or
lo - keys. Each press will adjust the temperature by +
5°F or - 5°F (or 2°C).
If bake is active without a cook time setting, the oven will
remain on for 12 hours before turning off automatically unless it
is canceled.
To bake longer than 12 hours, see “Changing Between 12 Hour
Energy Saving or Continuous Bake Mode Settings” on page 11
for instructions.
For best results
• Fully preheat the oven when baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits and breads. When using a single rack for
baking, place in oven rack position 3.
• When baking cakes using 2 Glide racks, place cookware on
positions 2 and 6 and position cookware allowing 2-4
inches (5-10cm) of space between the food items to ensure
proper circulation.(Figure 15)
• When using a flat rack with a glide rack, use position 7 for
the flat rack and 2 for the glide rack or place the flat rack in
2 and the glide rack in position 6.
• 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 batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the convection bake function for
best results.
