How to Set the Upper Oven for Baking or Roasting
Your oven is not designed for open-door
cooking.
Touch the BAKE pad.
Touch the number pads to set the
desired temperature.
Touch the START pad.
The word ON and 100° will be displayed. As
the oven heats up, the display will show the
changing temperature. When the oven reaches
the temperature you set, a tone will sound.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. Preheating is necessary
when convection baking and for good
results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.
Baking results will be better if foods are
centered in the oven as much as possible.
Pans should not touch each other or the
walls of the oven.
For best results when baking four cake layers
at a time, use racks B and D. Place the lower
pans at the back of the rack and the upper
pans at the front of the rack as shown so that
one pan is not directly above another leaving
approximately 1-1/2" between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the walls.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms.
The foil will trap heat below and upset the
performance of the oven. Foil can melt and
permanently damage the oven bottom.
Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is
not covered by the product warranty.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature
change of the air in the oven may cause
water droplets to form on the door glass.
These droplets are harmless and will
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
To change the oven temperature during BaKe
cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the
number pads to get the new temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum
time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when
cooking is complete.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a
sheet on a lower rack, several inches below
the food .Do not use more foil than necessary
and never entirely cover an oven rack with
aluminum foil . Keep foil at least 1-1/2" from
oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.
