Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4 for regular baking.
Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use rack positions
2 and 4 with the Bake function. Place the cakes on the racks as
shown.
Baking Cookies on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use rack
positions 2 and 4 with the Bake function.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2"
(5.0
cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the
following chart as a guide.
NOTE: Bakeware materials and color may affect results. Dark,
dull, non-stick or glass pans may require shorter baking times, in
contrast insulated or stainless steel pans may require longer
baking times. Follow bakeware manufacturer's recommendations.
Oven Vent
The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the
inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the bottom vent
should not be blocked or covered since it allows the inlet of fresh
air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air from the cooling
system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation,
affecting cooking, cleaning and cooling results.
Baking and Roasting
Preheating
When beginning a Bake cycle, the oven will begin preheating after
Start is pressed.
The oven will take approximately 13 to 19 minutes
to reach
350°F (177°C)
with all of the oven racks provided with your
oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to
preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature.
The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to
offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food.
This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven
will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before
the tone sounds.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to
maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or
cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door
while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could
impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to
use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
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 cycle to end before putting
food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 2 minutes before putting food
in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on
grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack.
Close the oven door to ensure proper broiling temperature.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is
used or if the oven is heavily soiled.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise
control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the
cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish
and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Place the food
in the upper or lower oven. Refer to the “Positioning Racks and
Bakeware” section for more information.
On lower settings, the broil element will cycle on and off to maintain
the proper temperature.
■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to
drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered.
Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more information.
