SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Roast
Use the roast function to roast meats and poultry. Meats
cooked using the roast function will be juicier and poultry
will be crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist
on the inside.
Suggestions for roast:
•
The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid
will help prevent splatters. The roasting rack will hold
the meat.
•
Do not cover foods when dry roasting as this will
prevent the meat from browning properly.
•
It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting
rack. Use a deep pan instead.
•
Use a deep pan for fatty food to prevent the oven from
stains that can be permanent.
To set roast:
1.
Arrange oven racks while the oven is still cool.
2.
Preheat the oven if desired, but preheating is not
necessary when roasting and cooking casseroles.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking the oven interior, oven racks,
and cooktop will become very hot which can cause
burns.
Do not bake foods directly on the oven bottom. To
avoid damaging the oven interior and surfaces,
always bake foods in the oven using bakeware posi-
tioned on an oven rack.
