Oven Cooking Modes

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 rack position and other recommendations for specific modes and foods.

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.

mode. To use this mode press the

pad,

enter a temperature with number pads, and then press

Convection Roast

This mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat
on a single rack. The utilization of all three elements and
direct airflow down from the top of the oven improves
browning and reduces cooking time. Check food earlier
than the recipe suggests when using this mode. To
use this mode press the

pad, enter a

temperature with number pads, and then press

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in
this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while

positions as placing food closer to the broil element
increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats
igniting. Broiling on rack position 6 is not recommended.

Broiling can be used for foods that would typically be
grilled.

Adjust the rack position in order to vary the intensity

modes. Then press Start.

designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than
traditional oven cooking. The Air Fry mode is intended
for single rack cooking only. Select Air Fry, then input
