Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.
■
Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
■
After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
¹⁄₂
in. (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature
drops, cook the meat or poultry longer.
■
Check all meat in two or three places.
Oven Vent
1. Upper oven
2. Oven vent
3. Lower oven
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 USE
Baking and Roasting
ACCUBAKE
®
Temperature Management System
(on some models)
The ACCUBAKE system electronically regulates the oven heat
levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature
range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements
cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow red when
cycling on, the broil element will not. This feature is automatically
activated when the oven is in use.
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 preheat conditioning time to
end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.
To Bake or Roast:
1.
Press BAKE.
Press TEMP (▲) or (▼) to set a temperature other than 350°F
(175°C) in 5° amounts. The bake range can be set between
170°F and 500°F (75°C and 260°C).
2.
Press START.
The temperature can be changed after this step.
START does not need to be pressed again.
3.
Press OFF when finished.
Preheating
After START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat
conditioning. “PrE” and the time countdown will appear on the
display. When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone will
sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.
Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as
room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for
the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven
temperature to differ.
Waiting an additional ten minutes after the preheat conditioning
time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking
foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder,
baking soda and eggs.
