Setting the Lower Oven
About the lower oven
The lower oven is ideal for cooking foods such
as pizza, casseroles, baked potatoes and frozen
convenience foods. Use the keep warm feature to
keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. The
lower oven can only be used with some cooking
modes; Bake, Slow Cook and Keep Warm (read
their sections for precise instructions).
Keep children away from the lower oven when
hot. Failure to do so can result in burns.

Always use oven mitts when removing food
from the lower oven. The lower oven rack,
compartment, cookware/plates may be hot.
See example below to set a bake to start
immediately using the default temperature.
Once START is pressed the oven will begin heating.
The oven display shows PRE-HEATING.
After the oven reaches set temperature, PRE-
HEATING will turn off and a beep will indicate the
oven is ready. The oven will continue to maintain this
temperature until the cooking feature is canceled.
Setting bake for lower oven
• Thelowerovenrackmust
always be in place
when cooking or
warming.Besure
that the rack is
placed with the
down turned
sides into the
drawer. This
will provide for
some air space
between the
drawer and the
food.
• Whenplacingfoodin
the lower oven always use a
baking sheet or pan with 4 raised
sides to prevent food from sliding off.
• DO NOT LINE THE OVEN DRAWER WITH
FOIL OR COVER THE OVEN RACK WITH
FOIL. This may result in damage to your oven.
• Themaximumheightoffoodsandutensils
that may be used in the lower oven is 4”. The
maximum width is 15”. Pay close attention to
foods that have potential to rise beyond the
recommended 4” maximum height.
• Usepansinthelowerovenlargeenoughto
containfoodandanyjuicescreatedfromthe
cooking process.
• Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic
may melt onto the drawer or surrounding
areasandbeverydifculttoclean.Use a
lid or aluminum foil instead. Use only utensils
and cookware in the oven drawer that are
recommended for oven use in the upper oven.
• Whenusingtheloweroven,limitthenumberof
times the drawer is opened; this will minimize
heat loss. Repeated opening of the drawer
during the cooking process may increase
cooking times and produce uneven cooking
results. The cooking times for the lower oven
may vary slightly from the upper oven.
