Baking Recommendations
The BAKE mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe
or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.*
Use BAKE for baking on one or two racks. Most items are baked on rack position 3 (center rack in oven).
Some foods are best when other rack positions are used. Refer to the chart below for foods that should be
baked using other rack positions.
Baking Tips
• Preheat when using the Bake mode.
• Baking time will vary with the size, shape and
finish of the baking utensil. Dark metal pans or
nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker re-
sults. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook-
ing time for most foods.
• For best results, bake food on a single rack with
at least 1
-1
/2" space between pans or dishes and
oven walls.
• Use a maximum of 2 racks when selecting the
bake mode. Stagger pans or baking sheets so
that one is not directly above another.
• Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the
window to periodically check food for doneness
instead of opening the door.
• Do not use any aluminum foil or a disposable alu-
minum tray to line any part of the oven. Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped
beneath it. This will alter the cooking performance
and can damage the finish of the oven.
