Oven Operations
• Preheat when using the Bake mode.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish
of the baking utensil. Dark metal pans or nonstick
coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated
bakeware will lengthen the cooking time for most
foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with at
least 1 / " space between pans or dishes and oven

walls.
The BAKE mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to
recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.*
Use BAKE for baking on one or two racks. Most items are baked on rack position 3 (center rack in oven).
Some foods are best when other rack positions are used. Refer to the chart below for foods that should be
baked using other rack positions.

• Use a maximum of 2 racks when selecting the bake
mode. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above
another.
• To reduce heat loss, avoid opening the oven door.
Whenever possible, check food through the window.
• Do not use any aluminum foil or a disposable
aluminum tray to line any part of the oven. This will
alter the cooking performance and can damage the
finish of the oven.
