BAKING

If the TOASTING function is operating in the upper oven when lower oven BAKE pad and temperature are en- tered, the control will display HEAT- ING DELAYED X MIN followed by WAIT. At the end of the delay the lower oven will start automatically.

To recall the set temperature during pre- heat press the BAKE pad.

To change oven temperature during cook- ing, press the BAKE pad and the appro- priate number pads.

Allow 4-8 minutes for the upper oven to preheat. Allow 10-16 minutes for the lower oven to preheat.

Allow at least 1/2-inch between the bak- ing pan or casserole and the top ele- ment in the upper oven. Loaf, angel food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.

Do not use temperatures below 140° F to keep food warm or below 200° F for cooking. For food safety reasons, lower temperatures are not recommended.

The back part of the lower oven bake element will NOT glow red during baking. This is normal.

When baking frozen, self-rise pizzas in the upper oven, place the pizza on a cookie sheet to avoid overbrowning.

For additional baking and roasting tips, refer to the “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.

CONVECT BAKING

(SELECT MODELS)

As a general rule, when convection

baking, set the oven temperature 25° F lower than the conventional recipe or prepared mix directions. Baking time will be the same to a few minutes less than directions.

When roasting meat using the con- vection setting, roasting times may be up to 30% less. (Maintain conven- tional roasting temperatures.)

See roasting chart in “Cooking Made Simple” booklet for recommended roast- ing temperature and times, and addi- tional baking and convection cooking tips.

BROILING

If the TOASTING function is operating in the upper oven when lower oven BROIL pad is pressed, a double beep will sound and display will read

TOASTING WAIT X MIN.

HI broil is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling longer cooking foods to allow them to cook to well done stage without excessive browning.

Never cover broiler pan insert with alumi- num foil. This prevents fat from draining to the pan below.

Expect broil times to be longer and brown- ing to be slightly lighter if appliance is installed on a 208 volt circuit.

3. When the oven turns on a red preheat

indicator will light and the

convect icon will be displayed.

4.A single beep will indicate the oven is preheated to the set temperature. The preheat indicator will turn off.

5.When cooking is complete, press CAN- CEL pad. Remove food from oven.

1.Press the BROIL pad.

2.Press the AUTO SET pad for HI broil, press again for LO broil, or press the

appropriate number pads to set desired broil temperature between 300° and 550° F.

3.For optimal broiling, preheat three to four minutes or until the broil element is red.

4.Place food in oven leaving the oven door open to the first stop position (about four inches).

5.Follow broiling recommendations in “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.

6.When broiling is complete, press CAN- CEL pad. Remove food and broiler pan from oven.
