USING THE OVEN
COOKING MODES
Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.
Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.
Baking and Roasting Modes
Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the type
and quantity of food you are preparing. When preparing
baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries always
preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations for
food placement. If no guidelines are provided, center food
in the oven.
Bake
The bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This
mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but also
from the upper element to cook food. To use this mode,
press the
Bake
pad, enter a temperature, and then press
Start
. Preheating is generally recommended when using
this mode.
Convection Bake

cooking. This mode uses heat from the lower element
and also the upper and rear elements, along with air
movement from the convection fan to enhance evenness.
Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so
it is not necessary to convert the temperature when using
this mode. To use this mode press
Convection,
then
press
Bake,
enter a temperature, and then press
Start
.
Preheating is generally recommended when using this
mode.
Convection Bake Multi Rack

baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses
heat primarily from the rear element but also heat from
the upper and lower elements, along with air movement
from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness.
Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so
it is not necessary to convert the temperature when using

racks than what would be expected for a single rack. To

, then press
Bake Multi
Rack
,
enter a temperature, and then press
Start
. Always
preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses heat
from the lower, upper, and rear elements along with air
movement from the convection fan to improve browning
and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to convert
temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe suggested
time when using this mode, or use a meat probe. To use
this mode press
Convection
, then press
Roast
, enter a
temperature, and then press
Start
. It is not necessary to
preheat when using this mode.
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in this
oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while broiling.
Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as
placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking,
spattering, and the possibility of fats igniting.
Broiling on
rack position 6 is not recommended.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack
positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food.
Place foods closer to the broil element when a seared
surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and
foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on

For best performance center food below the broil heating
element.
