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
A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow
manufacturer's directions for using a 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.
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.
■ On some models the convection fan may operate during
preheating or during the bake cycle.
■ 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.
5. When the preheat cycle is complete, insert food. “Insert food
for one rack baking” or “Insert food for multirack baking” will
appear in the selected oven text area.
“Bake” will scroll in the selected oven text area until CANCEL
for the selected oven is pressed.
6. Place food in the oven when the preheat tone sounds.
7. Press UPPER or LOWER CANCEL when finished.
8. Remove food from the oven.
NOTE: If a Set Cooking Time is to be used when only one
oven is used, increase the cook time by 10 minutes. If a Set
Cooking Time is to be used when both ovens are used or
multi-rack baking in the lower oven, increase the cook time
by 15 minutes. When the Set Cooking Time expires, the
oven(s) will turn off.
