Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.

Bake
The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode
XVHVKHDWRQO\IURPWKHORZHUEXUQHU:KHQSUHSDULQJ
baked goods such as cakes, cookies and pastries,
always preheat the oven before inserting food. Follow
recipe recommendations for food placement. If no
guidelines are provided, center food in the oven. To use
this mode, press the
Bake pad, use the + and - pads to
adjust the temperature, then press Start .
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the oven door and drawer closed.
Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when
broiling on the upper rack positions as placing food
closer to the broil burner increases smoking, spattering,
and the possibility of fats igniting.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil burner when a
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods
and foods that need to be cooked through should be

Convection Bake (on some models)
The Convection Bake mode is intended for baking
on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses
air movement from the convection fan to enhance
cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto
Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust the
temperature when using this mode. To use this mode
press the
Conv Bake pad, use the + and - pads to
adjust the temperature, and then press Start . Always
preheat when using this mode.
Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
readily can result in a browner, crisper and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than the minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
