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 and Roasting Modes
Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the
type and quantity of food you are preparing. 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.
Convection Bake
The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking on
multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses heat
primarily from the rear element but also heat from the
upper and lower elements, along with air movement
from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness.
Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion,
so it is not necessary to convert the temperature when
using this mode. Baking time might be slightly longer for
multiple racks than what would be expected for a single
rack. To use this mode press the
Convection Bake
pad, enter a temperature, and then press
Start
. Always
preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses
heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements along
with air movement from the convection fan to improve
browning and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to
convert temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe
suggested time when using this mode or use a meat
probe. To use this mode press the
Convection Roast
pad, enter a temperature, and then press
Start
. It is not
necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Broiling Modes
Broiling is available in both ovens. For better broiling,
the lower oven is recommended. When broiling in the
upper oven, the door should remain CLOSED. When
broiling in the lower oven, the door should remain 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.
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.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to
3 hours. To use this mode, press the
Warm
pad then
press
Start.
Cover foods that need to remain moist and
do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is
not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other
than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also
recommended that food not be kept warm for more
than 2 hours.
