BAKING/ROASTING
1. Place the racks where you need them in the oven.
For more information, see “Positioning racks and
pans” earlier in this section.
2. Choose the bake setting.
The bake indicator light will light up.
3. Set the temperature (optional).
Do this step if you want to set a temperature
other than 350°F. Press to raise the tem-
perature or to lower the temperature in 5°F
amounts. You can set a temperature anywhere
from 170°F to 500°F. Use these pads until
the temperature you want shows on the display.
4. When roasting, put your food in the oven.
You do not have to preheat the oven when
roasting, unless your recipe recommends it.
During baking/roasting, the elements will turn
on and off to keep the oven temperature at
the setting.
NOTE: The top element helps heat during
baking/roasting, but does not turn red.

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 touching bone, fat,
or the bottom of the pan.
