BAKEWARE

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5.0 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.

Bakeware

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat
thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are
cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal
temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine
doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this
appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat
thermometer.

Oven Vents

The oven vents release hot air and moisture from the ovens, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vents
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 vents.

Baking

Before baking, position racks according to the “Positioning
Racks and Bakeware” section.

If only one oven is to be used, that oven will preheat more
quickly.

Allow at least ½" (1.3 cm) between the baking pan or
casserole and the top element in the upper oven. Loaf, angel
food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.

When preheating with a baking/pizza stone inside the upper
oven, do not set oven above 450°F (232°C). Food cooked
using a baking stone may need to be removed early.

The back part of the lower oven bake element will not glow
red during baking. This is normal.

Use only 1 rack in the upper oven.

To Bake:

1. Press upper or lower oven BAKE.

“BAKE” will scroll in the upper or lower text area (depending
on oven selection), and 350°F (175°C) will be displayed.

“Set temp or” will scroll in the selected oven text area,
followed by “Push START.”

2. Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow pads until the

desired temperature is displayed.

NOTE: The temperature may be changed at any time by
pressing the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow pads until the
desired temperature is displayed and then pressing START.
Changing the temperature once food is placed in the oven
could affect performance.

3. (Optional) If a Set Cooking Time is desired, press COOK

TIME. Press the Temp/Time “up” or “down” arrow pads to
adjust the cook time by 1-minute increments until the desired
time is displayed.

“Push START” will scroll in the selected oven text area.

4. Press START.

If the upper oven is used, “Preheating” will appear in the
upper oven text area. If the lower oven is used, depending on
the selection, “Rapid preheating for single rack. Press START
to preheat for multi rack baking.” will appear. If no change is
made, “Preheating for single rack baking” will appear in the
display.

If multi-rack baking is desired, the “START” pad should be
pressed and “Standard preheat for multi rack baking. Press
START to preheat for single rack baking.” will appear in the
display, followed by “Preheating for multi rack baking.”

“Rapid preheating for single rack baking” will scroll in the
selected oven text area. “Preheating” remains in the text area
until the set temperature is reached.
