Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.

food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad,
enter a temperature, and then press Start.
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the door closed. Monitor food closely
while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack
positions as 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
food. Place foods closer to the broil burner 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 burner or by
using Broil Lo.

burner to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of

this mode. To use this mode press the Bake pad under
Convection, enter a temperature, and 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 may use

a temperature, and then press Start
to preheat when using this mode.
