Using the Oven
Before Using the Oven
NOTE
•
Because the oven temperature cycles, an oven
thermometer placed in the oven cavity may not
show the same temperature that is set on the
oven.
•
It is normal for the convection fan to run while
preheating during a regular bake cycle.
•
The convection fan motor may run periodically
during a regular bake cycle.
•
The heat turns off if the door is left open during
baking. If the door is left open for longer than
30 seconds during baking, the heat turns off.
The heat turns back on automatically once the
door is closed.
Oven Vent
Areas near the vent may become hot during operation
and may cause burns. Do not block the vent opening.
Avoid placing plastics near the vent as heat may
distort or melt the plastic.
It is normal for steam to be visible when cooking
foods with high moisture content.
Oven Vent
Vent trim
CAUTION
•
The edges of the range vent and vent trim
are sharp and may become hot during
operation.
Wear gloves when cleaning the
range to avoid burns or other injury.
Using Oven Racks
The racks have a turned-up back edge that prevents
them from being pulled out of the oven cavity.
Removing Racks
1
Pull the rack straight out until it stops.
2
Lift up the front of the rack and pull it out.
Replacing Racks
1
Place the end of the rack on the support.
2
Tilt the front end up and push the rack in.
CAUTION
•
Replace oven racks before turning the oven on
to prevent burns.
•
Do not cover the racks with aluminum foil, or
any other material, or place anything on the
bottom of the oven. Doing so will result in poor
baking and may damage the oven bottom.
•
Only arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.
Bake
Bake is used to prepare foods such as pastries,
breads and casseroles. The oven can be programmed
to bake at any temperature from 170 °F (80 °C) to
550 °F (285 °C). The default temperature is 350 °F
(175 °C).
Setting the Bake Function (example, 375 °F)
1
Turn the oven mode knob to select
Bake
.
2
Set the oven temperature: For example, press
plus(+)
until 375 °F appears in the display.
3
Press
Start.
The oven starts to preheat.
As the oven preheats, the temperature is displayed
and rises in 5 degree increments. Once the oven
reaches the set temperature, a tone sounds and the
oven light blinks on and off.
4
When cooking is complete, turn the oven mode
knob to the
Off
position.
5
Remove food from the oven.
NOTE
It is normal for the convection fan to operate
periodically throughout a normal bake cycle in the
oven. This is to ensure even baking results.
