2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure
that no bakeware piece is directly over another.

and then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a
guide.

glass model)
A
....
A. Oven
vent (coil
element
model)
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the 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.
On coil element models, the element can be used when the oven is
in use as long as the cookware does not extend more than
1/2"(1.3 cm) over the element.
The bake and broil burners cycle on and off in intervals. This
feature is automatically
activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is not
necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting
food in unless it is recommended
in the recipe.
Preheating
When START is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once
100°F (38°C) is reached, the display temperature will increase as
the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat
temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected
temperature will appear on the display.
