Oven Vent
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 the vent 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.
Baking and Roasting
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the heating
elements (bake, both broils, and convection fan) will turn off
approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn
on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

To Bake or Roast:

Before baking or roasting, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
1. From the Main menu, touch BAKE.
2. To change the preset temperature, enter the desired
temperature using the numerical keys. The temperature can
be set to between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
3. To enter a cook time, touch COOK TIME. Enter the desired
cook time using the numerical keys.
4. If using the temperature probe, touch PROBE. Enter the
desired food temperature using the numerical keys.
5. Once a cooking setup function is complete, the Start key will
light up.
6. When settings are correct, touch START.
7. If the oven temperature is below the set temperature, the
Preheat Bar will be displayed showing the status of the
preheat cycle. When preheat is complete a tone will sound.
8. During the preheat and cooking cycle an Adjust Settings key
appears on the lower right hand corner of the display. Touch
ADJUST SETTINGS to change the desired time, temperature
and/or probe settings. Touch START to enter new settings.
9. If the Cook Time has been set or the temperature probe has
been used, the Check Food message will appear at the end
of the cook time or once the set temperature has been
reached.
If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder
tones will sound every minute. Touch OK to clear the
message, stop reminder tones, and continue the current
cooking cycle.
10. Touch OFF when finished cooking.
True-Broil™ Reflector Full and Center Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food.
During full broiling, both the inner and outer broil elements heat.
During center broiling, only the inner broil element heats. The
element(s) cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven
temperature.
If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element(s)
will turn off in approximately 30 seconds. When the oven door
is closed, the elements will come back on approximately
30 seconds later.
■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 Kit, it may be
ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for
Part Number W10123240.
■For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the broiler pan may be lined with aluminum foil for
easier cleaning.
■Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
■Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
