Make sure foil is at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.■When convection cooking, do not cover food with aluminum foil.ADJUSTMENT °F (ADJUSTMENT °C) COOKS FOOD 5° to 10°F (3° to 6°C) ...a little more 15° to 20°F (9° to 12°C) ...moderately more 25° to 35°F (15° to 21°C) ...much more-5° to -10°F (-3° to -6°C) ...a little less-15° to -20°F (-9° to -12°C) ...moderately less-25° to -35°F (-15° to -21°C) ...much less
8Positioning Racks and BakewareIMPORTANT: Never place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom. Permanent damage will occur to the porcelain finish.RACKSPosition racks before turning the oven on. Do not move racks with bakeware on them. Make sure racks are level. To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and chart as a guide.BAKEWARETo cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.BakewareThe bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.Meat ThermometerOn models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.■Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.■After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat¹⁄₂ in. (1.25 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, cook the meat or poultry longer.■Check all meat in two or three places.Oven Vent1. Upper oven2. Oven vent3. Lower ovenThe oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.FOOD RACK POSITIONFrozen pies, large roasts, turkeys, angel food cakes 1 or 2Bundt cakes, most quick breads, yeast breads, casseroles, meats 2Cookies, biscuits, muffins, cakes, non-frozen pies 2 or 3NUMBER OF PAN(S) POSITION ON RACK1 Center of rack.2 Side by side or slightly staggered.3 or 4 Opposite corners on each rack.

9Baking and Roasting1. Broil element2. Bake elementACCUBAKE® Temperature Management System(on some models)The ACCUBAKE 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 the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.If the lower oven door is opened during baking and roasting, the broil element will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.To Bake or Roast:1. Press BAKE.Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 350°F (177°C). The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).2. Press START/ENTER.“Lo°” will appear on the lower oven display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F (77°C).When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the lower oven display will show the temperature increasing in 5° increments.When the set temperature is reached, if enabled, one tone will sound.3. Press lower oven OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.PreheatingAfter START is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. “PrE” and the time countdown will appear on the display. When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display.Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven temperature to differ.Waiting an additional ten minutes after the preheat conditioning time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking soda and eggs.Broiling and Custom Broiling1. Broil elementBroiling uses direct radiant heat from the broil element to cook food. During broiling, the broil element cycles on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.If the lower oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.■Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance. It is designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.■For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.■Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to prevent 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.To Broil:Before broiling or custom broiling, position the rack according to the Broiling Chart.Position food on the grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.Close the door.1. Press CUSTOM BROIL.2. Press START/ENTER.The set oven temperature will appear on the lower oven display until the oven is turned off.3. Press lower oven OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.To Custom Broil:Changing the temperature when custom broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.1. Press CUSTOM BROIL.2. Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than 500°F (260°C). The broil range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).3. Press START/ENTER.The set oven temperature will appear on the lower oven display until the oven is turned off.4. Press lower oven OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.121
10BROILING CHARTFor best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.Convection CookingIn a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (-3°C to 10°C) and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.■It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.■Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door when necessary.■Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.■Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with an alternative method such as a toothpick.■Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in two or three places.Convection Baking and Roasting1. Broil element2. Convection fan3. Bake elementDuring convection baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.If the lower oven door is opened during convection baking or roasting, the broil element and fan will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn off in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.■For optimal cooking results, do not use aluminum foil.■Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may need to be reduced also. See the cookbook supplied with this oven for more information. To Convection Bake or Roast:Before convection baking or roasting, position the racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When using two racks, place them on rack positions 2 and 4.When roasting with CONV BAKE, use the roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.1. Roasting rack2. Broiler grid3. Broiler pan1.

Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See “Oven Vent(s)” section.Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.Prepare Oven:■Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.■Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.■Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See “General Cleaning” section for more information.■Hand clean inside door edge and the 1½ in. (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being careful not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc. enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.■Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.WARNINGFood Poisoning HazardDo not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.WARNINGBurn HazardDo not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
13How the Cycle WorksIMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds.The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash. The oven is preset for a 3 hour 30 minute clean cycle, but the time can be changed. Suggested clean times are 2 hours 30 minutes for light soil and between 3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes for average to heavy soil. Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled down could result in the glass breaking.The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.On combination oven models, the upper oven will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.To Self-Clean:Before self-cleaning, make sure the door is closed completely or it will not lock and the cycle will not begin. 1.

Press START/ENTER.The lower oven door will automatically lock. “DOOR LOCKED,” the start time and stop time will appear on the lower oven display. The door will not unlock until the lower oven cools.When the cycle is complete and the oven cools, “End” will appear on the lower oven display and “DOOR LOCKED” will disappear.3. Press any pad or open the lower oven door to clear the lower oven display.To Delay Start Self-Clean:Before delay starting Self-Clean, make sure the clock is set to the correct time of day.

The start time is automatically calculated and displayed.The door will automatically lock and “DOOR LOCKED,” “DELAY,” and the stop time will also appear on the display.
