BAKEWARE
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.

Oven Vent
A
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven
vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and
cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that
could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Baking and Roasting
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the interior finish, do not place
food or cookware on the oven door or oven bottom.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
To Bake or Roast:
1. Press BAKE.
Press TEMP/TIME “up” or “down” arrow pads to set a
temperature other than 350°F (177°C) in 5°F (3°C) amounts.
The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C
and 260°C).
2. Press START.
The temperature can be changed at any time after this step
by pressing the TEMP/TIME “up” or “down” arrow pads. Start
does not need to be pressed again. If baking/roasting while
the Timer is counting down, the set baking/roasting
temperature can be displayed for 5 seconds by pressing
BAKE.
3. Touch CANCEL/OFF when finished.
Preheating
After START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat cycle.
The bake indicator light will light up. The Electronic Oven Control
automatically selects the preheat cycle time based on the oven
temperature selected. The cycle time will not change if the
temperature is reset before the cycle countdown ends. Preheat is
complete and the oven is ready to use when a 1-second tone
sounds, the cycle countdown ends, and the set temperature is
displayed.
Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as
room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for
the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven
temperature to differ.
Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat time ends to
put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with
leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking
soda and eggs.
