BAKE/ROAST (CONT.)
Roasting meats and poultry
•For even cooking, place the meat on a rack in a shallow pan. This keeps the meat out of the drippings and allows the heat to circulate better.
•Use a meat thermometer for the most accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is in the center of the largest muscle or thickest portion of the meat or poultry. Make sure the thermometer is not touching bone, fat, or the bottom of the pan.
5.Press the START button.
A preheat conditioning time counts down the approximate preheat time after the oven temperature has been set and the start button has been pressed. The oven control automatically sets preheating times based on the oven temperature you select.
As the preheat conditioning ends, the selected oven temperature replaces “PrE” on the display and the time of day reappears. You will hear a
The temperature management system electronically regulates the preheat time and temperature to maintain a precise temperature range for the best cooking results. The preheat and set temperatures may be different at the end of the countdown. This is normal.

•When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F (77°C), no preheating time will be shown on the display.
•You can change the temperature setting any time after pressing START/ENTER. You do not have to press START/ENTER again.
6.When baking…
Put food in oven after the preheat countdown ends. During baking/roasting, the oven burner will turn on and off to keep oven temperature at the setting.
Saving energy
•To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little as possible. Use the OVEN LIGHT button and look through the windows.
•Use a timer to keep track of cooking time.
•Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.
