How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Safety
The oven has a special low shelf (R) position just above the oven bottom. Use it when extra cooking space is needed, for example, when cooking a large turkey. The shelf is not designed to slide out at this position.
Touch the BAKE pad.
Touch the number pads to set the desired temperature.
Touch the START pad.
The word ON and 100° will be displayed. As the oven heats up, the display will show the changing temperature. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, a tone will sound.
To change the oven temperature during BAKE cycle, press the BAKE pad and then the number pads to get the new temperature.

Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when cooking is complete.
Instructions
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.
Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one
is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall.
Installation Instructions
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil to catch spillovers when using the CircuWave fan. The foil will be sucked toward the convection fan.
You can use aluminum foil to line the
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid. broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover.
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food.
Troubleshooting Tips
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature change of the air in the oven may cause water droplets to form on the door glass. These droplets are harmless and will evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.
