Oven Temperature Control

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature
calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or
Celsius.
Temperature adjustment applies to upper or lower ovens.
A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed
amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be
warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a
guide.
ADJUSTMENT °F
(ADJUSTMENT °C)
10°F (6°C)
20°F (12°C)
30°F (17°C)
-10°F (-6°C)
-20°F (-12°C)
-30°F (-17°C)
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.
The upper and lower ovens have rapid and standard preheat
options. When only one oven is used (either upper or lower) the
oven in use will default to the rapid preheat option. The rapid
preheat option is only recommended for single-rack baking.
When both ovens are used simultaneously, the ovens will default
to the standard preheat option. The standard preheat option is
recommended for multi-rack baking in the lower oven. The upper
oven is only used for single-rack cooking.
When the lower oven is used independently, the oven will default
to the rapid preheat option to be used for single-rack baking only.
To use the standard preheat option for multi-rack baking in the
lower oven, make the appropriate selection during Bake or
Convection Bake operation setup.
To toggle between single or multi-rack baking, press START after
beginning the Bake or Convection Bake mode.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil, liner or
cookware.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.
To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is
at least
" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned
up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or
bottom.
Racks
Position racks before turning on the oven.
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
Make sure racks are level.
