Setting Bake
Use the bake feature whenever the recipe calls for baking using
normal temperatures. A reminder tone will sound indicating
when the set bake temperature is reached and to place the food
in the oven. During preheat the convection fan will run to help
heat the oven to the set temperature. The fan will turn off when
the set temperature is reached. The baking elements inside the
oven will cycle on and off during the baking process.
Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F
(77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
To set bake for oven temperature of 425°F (218°C):
1.
Select UPPER or LOWER oven.

For best results:
•
Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits and breads and use convection bake.
•
During bake the oven elements and fan will cycle on and
off for best cooking performance.
•
Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware,
resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be
necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to
prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recom-
mended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes,
cookies and muffins.
•
Do not open oven door often. Opening the door will reduce
the temperature in the oven and may increase cook time.
Radiant rack positions:
•
When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
•
For best results when baking cakes using two flat oven
racks, place racks in positions 1 and 3 as shown
in
For the Glide rack, set one position lower (position2) and
use offset rack in position 1. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of
space between bakeware for proper air circulation.
Setting Cook Time

automatic timer of the feature will turn the oven off after
cooking for the amount of time selected. Cook time can be set
with bake, convection bake, convection roast, and slow cook.
When combined with the delay start feature a cooking function
can be set to start at a later time. Cook time can not be
combined with broil or self clean.
