BAKING
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately
using an oven control system. It is recommended that
you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the
time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar
with your new oven’s performance.
If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust
the Oven Thermostat section. It lists easy Do It
Yourself instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct
position before you turn the oven on.
1. Press BAKE.
2. Press the number pads to set the oven
temperature.
3. Press START. When the oven starts to
heat the changing temperature will be
displayed. (The display starts changing
once the temperature reaches 100°F.)
4. Press CLEAR/OFF when baking is
finished.
NOTE:
• A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to
cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during the Bake
cycle, press BAKE and set the new temperature.

Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven
shelf or shelves in
the desired locations
while the oven is
cool. The correct
shelf position
depends on the kind
of food and the
browning desired.
As a general rule,
place most foods in
the middle of the
oven, on either shelf position C or D. See the following
chart for suggested shelf positions.
NOTE: To bake 4 layers of cake at one time,
position 2 layers on shelf B and 2 layers on shelf D
with the pans staggered so that one is not directly
above the other.
