BAKING/ROASTING (CONT.)
USING YOUR RANGE
4. When roasting, put the food in the oven.
You do not have to preheat the oven when
roasting, unless your recipe recommends it.
5. Press the start/enter pad.
A preheating time will count down on the display.
The preheat, bake, and on indicator lights will
light up. The oven control automatically sets
preheating times based on the oven temperature
you select:
For 245°F and less, the preheating time is
3 minutes.
For 250°F-445°F, the preheating time is
6 minutes.
For 450°F and above, the preheating time is
10 minutes.
The oven is preheated and ready to use when
the preheat indicator light goes off and the
countdown is finished.
The preheat and set temperatures may be
different at the end of the countdown. This is
normal.
NOTES:
There is no preheating time when the oven
temperature is greater than 170°F.
You can change the temperature setting any
time after pressing the start/enter pad. You
have to press the start/enter pad again.
The preheating time will not change if you
reset the temperature before the countdown
time ends.
Roasting meats and poultry
For even cooking, place the meat on a
rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the
meat out of the drippings and allows the
heat to circulate better.
Use a meat thermometer for the most
accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is
in the center of the largest muscle or
thickest portion of the meat or poultry.
Make sure the thermometer is not touch-
ing bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
