Setting Bake
Use the bake feature
whenever
the recipe
calls for baking
using
normal
temperatures.
A reminder
tone will sound indicating
when the set bake temperature
is reached
and to place the food
in the oven. The bake element
will cycle on and off to maintain
the set bake temperature
for precise
baking.
During
preheat,
the convection
fan will run to help heat the oven
to the set temperature.
The fan will pulse on and off after the set
temperature
is reached.
Bake may be set for any oven temperature
between
170°F
(77°C)
to 550°F
(288°C).
To set Bake for oven temperature
of 425°F
(218°C):
Always
use pot holders
or oven mitts when using
the oven. When
cooking
the oven interior,
oven racks, and
cooktop
will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Do not bake foods
directly
on the oven bottom.
To avoid
damaging
the oven interior
and surfaces,
always
bake
foods
in the oven using bakeware
positioned
on an oven rack.

Baking
Tips:
•
Fully preheat
the oven before
baking
items like cookies,
biscuits
and breads.
•
When
using any single rack, position
the rack so that the
food
is in the center
of the oven.
•
Dark or dull pans absorb
more heat than
shiny bakeware,
resulting
in dark
or over
browning
of foods.
It may be
necessary
to reduce
the oven temperature
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.
•
For batter
and dough-based
baked
goods
such as cakes,
pastries,
and breads,
use the convection
bake function
for
best results.
•
Convection
baking
is preferred
for multiple
rack cooking.
•
For best results when baking
cakes or cookies
using two
oven racks, place
racks in positions
1 and 5 (Figure
12) and
place pans as shown in Figure 13. Use flat
rack in position
5
and glide rack in position
1.
•
When
baking
using two oven racks, position
bakeware
as
shown in Figure 13. Allow
at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space
between
bakeware
for proper
air circulation.
•
Do not open the oven door too often.
Opening
the door will
reduce
the temperature
in the oven.
•
Glass bakeware
is a slow heat conductor.
May
require
reducing
oven temperature.

Important
note:
If Bake is active
without
a cook time setting,
the oven will remain
on for 12 hours before
turning
off automatically
unless it is
cancelled.
To bake longer
than 12 hours, see "Changing
Between
Continuous
Bake Setting
or 12 Hour Energy Saving"
