Oven 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 sufficient space between pans to allow air to flow.

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.

Traditional Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.

To remove a rack, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack 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 of the racks.

Extension Racks

Always pull the rack out by its upper front rail to its fully open 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 side 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, rsee 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 so that side paddles on the rack disengage from the oven support.
2. Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To Replace An Extension Rack:

1. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack.
2. Place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push it in as far as it will go.

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.

To Lubricate the Paddle:

Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the paddle mechanisms as shown.

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

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.

Cooking Modes

Bakking and Roasting Modes

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.

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; placing food close to the broil element or burner increases smoking, spattering and the possibility of fats igniting. For best performance center food below the broil heating element. Broiling on rack position 6, in single and lower cavities, 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

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods at a higher temperature for up to 3 hours. 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.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts surface and rare interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode

Broil Lo

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

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, enter a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake (upper only on double oven models)

The Convection Bake 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 pad, then select Convection Bake, enter a temperature, and then press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast (upper only on double oven models)

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 browing and reduce cooking time. It iis not necessary 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 pad, then select Convection Roast, enter a temperature, 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 doughs. In some models, Proof is found by selecting Options. Press Proof and 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 can not be run when running a clean mode in the lower oven.

Oven Probe

Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry. The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature and turns the oven off when the internal food temperature reaches the programmed temperature.

Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the food with a food thermometer after cooking to ensure that all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe internal temperature for that food.

Proper Probe Placement

After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking pan follow these guidelines for proper probe placement.

• Insert the probe completely into the meat, up to the handle, such that the point of the probe will rest in the center of the thickest part of the meat.
• The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle.
• For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest part of the breast.
• For bone less roasts, insert the probe into the center of the roast.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.
• For casseroles or dishes such as meatloaf, insert the probe into the center of the dish.
• For fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

Check the temperature at other locations in the food with a food thermometer once the probe temperature is reached to ensure that all portions of the food have reached desired temperatures.

Probe Usage

The temperature probe can only be used with Bake,

Convection Bake, and Convection Roast.

To use the probe with preheating:

1. Select the desired cook mode (Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) pad and enter the desired cooking temperature with the number pads.
2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).
3. Once the oven is preheated, place the food in the oven and connect the probe to the probe outlet, making sure it is fully inserted. Use caution, the oven walls and probe outlet are hot.
4. When the probe is connected, the display will prompt you to enter the desired food temperature. The maximum internal food temperature that you can set is 200° F.

To use the probe without preheating:

1. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe Placement).
2. Place the food in the oven and connect the probe into the probe outlet in the oven.
3. Press the Cook Mode pad (Traditional Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast) and enter the desired cooking temperature with the number pads. Press Options and select Probe then follow the display prompts to enter the desired food temperature.
