Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Bakeware

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow

2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.

Rack Positions

Rack 5: Toasting bread or broiling thin, non-fatty foods.

Rack 4: Use for 2-rack baking and broiling.

Rack 3: Most baked goods on a cookie sheet, muffin pan or jelly roll pan; and layer cakes. Broiling chicken pieces.

Rack 2: Pies, casseroles, yeast bread, quick breads, frozen convenience foods, and 2-rack baking.

Racks

■Position racks before turning on the oven.

■Do not move racks with bakeware on them.

■Make sure racks are level.

Baking and Roasting

PRECISE BAKE Temperature Management System

(on some models)

The PRECISE BAKE 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 “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.

Preheating

When START is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 170ºF (75ºC) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected temperature will appear on the display.
