Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. 
Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform 
differently than the oven it is replacing.

Baking Mode

When preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, 
and pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe 
recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines 
are provided, center food in the oven.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack 
cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower 
element but also from the upper element to cook 
food. To use this mode press the 

Bake

 pad, enter 

a temperature, and then press 

Start

. Preheating is 

generally recommended when using this mode. 

Broiling Mode

Always broil with the door open. Monitor food closely 
while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack 
positions as placing food closer to the broil element 
increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats 
igniting. For best performance center food below the 
broil heating element. 

Broiling on rack position 7 is 

not recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust 
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the 
food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a 
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods 
and foods that need to be cooked through should be 
broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by 
using 

Broil Lo.

Broil Hi

The Traditional Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from 
the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner 
cuts of meat and/ or foods you prefer less done on the 
interior. To use this mode press the 

Broil

 pad once and 

then press 

Start

. It is not necessary to preheat when 

using this mode.

Broil Lo

The Traditional Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat 
from the upper element to cook food thoroughly while 
also producing surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker 
cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked 
all the way through. To use this mode press the 

Broil

pad 

twice

 and then press 

Start

. It is not necessary to 

preheat when using this mode.
