Baking and Roasting

Temperature Management System

The oven control 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 and convection
element may 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. The time necessary to
preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) is approximately 15 minutes,
depending on the model. Factors that have an impact on preheat
times are: room temperature, starting oven temperature, and the
number of oven racks. Unused oven racks can be removed prior to
preheating your oven to reduce preheat time.

Broiling

Leave the door open 6" (15 cm) at the broil stop position to ensure
proper broiling temperature. Preheat the oven for 5 minutes before
putting food in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe.
Position food on grid in a broiler pan, then place it in the center of
the oven rack.

NOTE:

Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is

used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise
control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the
cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish
and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use racks 6 or
7 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 “Accessories” section for more information.

Convection Cooking

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding
crustier breads.
During convection cooking, the bake, broil and convection (true
convection only) elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain
the oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will
turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is
closed.

NOTE:

The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.

Position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and
Bakeware” section before starting convection cooking.

With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked at a lower
temperature or at a shorter time. These adjustments can be made
using the following chart or by using the EasyConvect™
Conversion feature on your range.

Bow Tie True Convection with T.H.E.™ Element

True convection adds an electric element around the convection
fan to enhance the cooking performance. This feature enables
three-rack baking in your range. Use the following Convect Options
chart as a guide.

BAKE

Reduce the standard baking temperature 25°F
(15°C)

CONVECT
ROAST

Use standard recipe temperature. Cooking time
may be reduced by 15-30% with Convect Roast
so the food should be checked for doneness early.

BROIL

Use standard recipe temperature. Cooking time
