Baking and Roasting
NOTE:
If the oven door remains open for too long, the heating
elements will shut off until the oven door is closed. All timers,
including any active Cook Time or Timed Cook functions, will
continue to count down.
ACCUBAKE
®
®
Temperature Management System
The ACCUBAKE
®
system electronically regulates the oven heat
levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature
range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or
burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models,
the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for
short intervals during Bake to provide the best results. This
feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to
“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.
Preheating
When START is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once
100ºF (38ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase as
the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat
temperature is reached, a tone will sound and the selected
temperature will appear on the display.
Broiling
NOTE:
If the oven door remains open for too long, the heating
elements will shut off until the oven door is closed. All timers,
including any active Cook Time or Timed Cook functions, will
continue to count down.
Position food on grid in a broiler pan, and then place it in the
center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT:
Close the door to ensure proper broiling
temperature.
Changing the temperature when Custom Broiling allows more
precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting is, the
slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of
meat, fish, and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use
rack 4 or 5 for broiling. 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 Quick Start Guide for contact
information.
