Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer.

The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

ACCUBAKE® Temperature Management System
(on some models)
The ACCUBAKE® system electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow red when cycling on, the broil element will not. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.
If the oven door is opened during baking and roasting, the bake and broil elements will turn off immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
1.On double oven models only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN.
Close oven door. The display will show “door” and the heating elements will not heat if the door is open when baking and roasting.
2.Press BAKE.
Press the TEMP “+” or
3.Press START.
A preheat time will count down and “PrE” will appear on the oven display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the timer will continue counting down. The temperature setting can be changed anytime after pressing START.
When the set temperature is reached, if enabled, one tone will sound.
4.Press UPPER OFF/CANCEL, LOWER OFF/CANCEL or OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.
Preheating
After START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. “PrE” and the time countdown will appear on the display. When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.
Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven temperature to differ.
Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat conditioning time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking soda and eggs.
Broiling and Custom Broiling
A
A. Broil element
Broiling uses direct radiant heat from the broil element to cook food. During broiling, the broil element cycles on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.
