Oven Operation
Baking or Roasting
1. Locate oven racks on proper rack positions.
2.Turn TEMPERATURE knob to desired temperature.
3.Turn SELECTOR knob to BAKE or CONVECT setting. When the BAKE INDICA-
TOR LIGHT cycles off, the oven is preheated to the selected temperature. Place the food in the oven. The BAKE INDICATOR LIGHT will cycle on and off
throughout the baking process. Preheat only when necessary. Refer to baking and roasting sections as to when preheating is recommended.
4.After baking, turn both TEMPERATURE and SELECTOR knobs to OFF position.
Rack Positions
The rack positions noted are generally recommended for the best browning results and most efficient cooking times. For many food items, excellent results can be achieved when using one of several different rack positions. Refer to baking and roasting sections for recommendations for specific foods.
Different Racks:
One flat rack and one offset rack were packaged with your oven. The use of the offset rack is denoted in the list below and the charts as an "o" after the rack number. Some convection models received a second flat rack to be used for three rack baking.
