Oven Vent
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent.
Oven Door Vent
1. Oven door vent
Hot air and moisture escape from the door vent during certain
oven modes. Some condensation may occur; however, this will
not affect cooking performance.
Bake
The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating
casseroles.
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the broil
element will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off
in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the
Positioning Racks and Bakeware section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
1. Press BAKE.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
350°F (177°C). The bake range can be set between 170°F and
500°F (77°C and 260°C).
On some models, press the TEMPERATURE up or down
arrow pads (buttons) to enter a temperature other than 350°F
(177°C).
2. Press START.
Lo°” will appear on the display if the actual oven temperature
is under 170°F (77°C).
On some models, PrE will appear on the display if the oven
temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
On some models, when the actual oven temperature reaches
170°F (77°C), the oven display will show the temperature
increasing in 5° increments.
When the set temperature is reached, if on, one tone will
sound.
3. Press CANCEL OFF when finished cooking.
Broil
(Maxi/Econo on some models)
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is
designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom
of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to prevent curling.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Use MAXI/ECONO
(on some models) for broiling regular-sized and smaller cuts of
meat, poultry and fish. Broil MAXI uses both top elements for
maximum browning coverage of foods. Broil ECONO uses the
inner element for browning coverage only in the center of foods.
Before broiling, position rack according to Broiling chart. It is not
necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.
