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. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this
appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat
thermometer.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent
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 vent.
Baking
The oven automatically regulates the heat levels and both the top
and bottom burners cycle on and off accordingly during preheat
and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal
cooking results.
To Bake or Roast:
Before baking, position the racks according to the “Positioning
Racks and Bakeware” section.
1. Press BAKE. “BAKE” and “000” will flash in the display.
2. Press PRESETS 0 on the number pad.
“350°” (“175°” Celsius) will appear when PRESETS 0 is first
pressed. Each additional press of PRESETS 0 will increase
the temperature in 25° increments, rising to 550°F (275°C)
and then continuing from 175°F (75°C) upward.
Press the appropriate number pads to select the bake
temperature. The Bake temperature can be set from
170°F (75°C) to 550°F (290°C).
3. Press BAKE again or wait 4 seconds. Bake will stop flashing
and light in the display.
“100°” or the actual temperature will display. The temperature
will rise in 5° increments until the preset temperature is
reached.
4. For best results, allow oven to fully preheat.
When the set oven temperature is reached, 1 long beep will
sound.
To recall the set temperature during preheat, press the BAKE
pad.
To change the oven temperature during preheat, press BAKE
twice, then PRESETS 0 or the appropriate number pads until
the desired temperature is displayed.
To change the oven temperature during cooking, press BAKE,
then PRESETS 0 or the appropriate number pads until the
desired temperature is displayed.
5. When cooking is finished, press CANCEL.
Preheating
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.
Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the
temperature when broiling allows more precise control when
cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking.
Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and
poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.
■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some
models). They are designed to drain juices and help avoid
spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for
Part Number 12500100.
■ 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 avoid 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.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.
Preheat broil about 4 minutes. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.
To Broil:
1. Press BROIL. “BROIL” and “SEt” will flash in the display until
the door is closed.
2. Press the PRESETS 0 number pad once to set HI Broil or
twice to set LO Broil. “HI” or “LO” will be displayed.
Select HI Broil (550°F/288°C) for normal broiling or LO Broil
(450°F/232°C) for low-temperature broiling.
After 4 seconds, the oven will start. “BROIL” and “HI” or “LO”
will remain lit.
3. Press CANCEL when finished broiling.
