Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.
Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
½" (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
Check all meat in 2 or 3 places.

Oven Vent

A. Upper oven
B. Oven vent
C. Lower oven
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or
covering vents 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.

ACCUBAKE
Temperature Management System
(on some models)
The ACCUBAKE
®
system electronically regulates the oven heat
levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature
range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements
cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow red when
cycling on, the broil element will not. This feature is automatically
activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to
end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.
If the oven door is opened during baking and roasting, the bake
and broil elements will turn off immediately. They will come back
on once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
1. On double oven models only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER
OVEN.
Close oven door. The display will show “door” and the
heating elements will not heat if the door is open when baking
and roasting.
2. Press BAKE.

other than 350°F (177°C). The bake range can be set between
170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
3. Press START.
A preheat time will count down and “PrE” will appear on the
oven display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F
(77°C).
When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the
timer will continue counting down.The temperature setting
can be changed anytime after pressing START.
When the set temperature is reached, if enabled, one tone will
sound.
