Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not
line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil because air
must be able to move freely.
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.
Racks
- Position racks before turning on the oven.
- Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
- Make sure racks are level.
- Place food so it will not rise into the broil element. Allow at least ¹⁄₂” (1.3 cm) between pans and the broil element.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then lift it out. Use the following illustrations and charts as a guide for positioning racks.
Rack Positions
Broiling
Food | Rack Position |
---|---|
Broiled meats, poultry, fish | 4 |
Broiling/searing meats, hamburgers, steaks | 5 |
Baking
Food | Rack Position |
---|---|
Large roasts, roasted meats or poultry | 1 or 2 |
Most baked goods, casseroles | 2 or 3 |
Baking Layer Cakes on 1 Rack
Place the cakes on the rack as shown.
Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 4 for regular baking.
Baking Layer Cakes on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use rack positions 2 and 4 with
the Bake function. Place the cakes on the racks as shown.
Baking Cookies on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cookies on 2 racks, use rack positions 2 and 4
with the Bake function.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2″ (5.0 cm) of
space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.
Number of Pan(s) | Position on Rack |
---|---|
1 | Center of rack. |
2 | Side by side. |
3 or 4 | Refer to the previous illustration. |
NOTE: Bakeware materials and color may affect results. Dark, dull, non- stick or glass pans may require shorter baking times, in contrast insulated or stainless steel pans may require longer baking times. Follow bakeware manufacturer’s recommendations.
Oven Vent(s)
Single and Double Oven
- A.Control panel
- B.Oven vent
- C.Single oven or upper double oven
- G.Bottom vent
Double Oven
- D.Upper oven
- E.Oven vent
- F.Lower oven
- G.Bottom vent
The oven vent(s) should not be blocked or covered since they allow the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system. Also, the bottom vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the inlet of fresh air into the cooling system and the outlet of hot air from the cooling system. Blocking or covering vents will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking, cleaning and cooling results.
Baking and Roasting
Preheating
When beginning a Bake cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is
pressed. The oven will take approximately 13 to 19 minutes to reach 350°F
(177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven
cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle
rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go
above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is
opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven,
the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone
sounds.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle On and Off as needed to maintain a
consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in
time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the
hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance.
It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
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 cycle to end before putting food in unless it is recommended in the
recipe.
Broiling
When broiling, preheat the oven for 2 minutes before putting food in unless
recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on grid in a broiler pan,
and then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the oven door to
ensure proper broiling temperature.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is used or
if the oven is heavily soiled.
Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when
cooking. The lower the broil setting, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and
unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower
broil settings. Place the food in the upper or lower oven. Refer to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section for more information.
On lower settings, the broil element will cycle On and Off to maintain the
proper temperature.
- 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, one may be ordered. Please refer to the “Accessories” section for more information.
