How to Roast in Your Double Oven
See Roasting Guide on page 15.
Roasting is cooking by dry heat.
It’s really a baking-procedure
used for meats. That’s why you
use the Bake controls for roasting.
Roasting temperatures, which
should be low and steady, keep
spattering to a minimum. When
roasting, it’s not necessary to
sear, baste, cover or add water to
your meat. Tender meat or poultry
can be roasted uncovered.
Check the weight of the meat and
place it, fat side up, on the rack in
the broiler pan that came with your
range. This helps the meat to baste
itself.
Always use a roasting pan that
fits the size of your meat. A roast
placed in a pan too small for its size
will drip over the edge.
Most meats continue to cook
slightly while standing in the
oven or after being removed from
it. Take this into consideration
when determining your cooking
time.
cook frozen meat roasts
without thawing, allow more
cooking time. For large roasts, add
10 to 25 minutes per pound. For
roasts under 5 pounds, add 10
minutes per pound.
To slow down surface browning
on turkeys, you can use a foil
The tent-shaped foil should
be laid loosely over the poultry so
the heat can circulate under the foil.
Most frozen poultry should be
thawed before cooking to make
sure it’s done evenly. Some,
however, can be cooked successfully
without thawing. Check the packer’s
label for specific directions.
How to Set Oven
for Roasting

on the Roasting Guide on page 15.
For very tall roasts, remove the
second oven shelf.
Step 2: Place meat inside the oven
and close the door.
Step 3: Touch BAKE pad. Display
shows “BAKE” and a flashing
indicator light points to OVEN
TEMP.
Step 4: Touch number pads 3,2 and
5 to enter

How to Set Oven When
Using Temperature Probe
For many foods, especially
roasts and poultry, internal food
temperature is the best test for
doneness. The temperature probe
takes the guesswork out of roasting
by cooking foods to the exact
doneness you want. When the
internal temperature of the food
reaches the temperature you set,
oven automatically shuts off,
“End” appears on display and oven
beeps once a minute until
CLEAR/OFF pad is touched.
Step 1: Insert probe into meat.
Then plug probe into receptacle on
oven wall.
Step 2: Touch BAKE pad. Display
