Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.

Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform

differently than the oven it is replacing.

Baking and Roasting Modes

Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the

type and quantity of food you are preparing. When

preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and

pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe

recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines

are provided, center food in the oven.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack

cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower

element but also from the upper element to cook

food. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter

a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is

generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake 1 Rack

The Convection Bake 1 Rack mode is intended for

single rack cooking. This mode uses heat from the

lower element and also the upper and rear elements,

along with air movement from the convection fan to

enhance evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto

Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the

temperature when using this mode. To use this mode

press the Convection Bake (1 Rack/Multi) once, enter

a temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is

generally recommended when using this mode.

Convection Bake Multi Rack

The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended

for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This

mode uses heat primarily from the rear element but

also heat from the upper and lower elements, along

with air movement from the convection fan to enhance

cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto

Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the

temperature when using this mode. Baking time might

be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be

expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the

Convection Bake (1 Rack/Multi) pad twice, enter a

temperature, and then press Start. Always preheat when

using this mode.

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting

whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses

heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements along

with air movement from the convection fan to improve

browning and reduce cooking time. It is not necessary to

convert temperature. Check food earlier than the recipe

suggested time when using this mode or use a meat

probe. To use this mode press the Convection Roast

pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start. It is not

necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in

this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while

broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack

positions as placing food closer to the broil element

increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats

igniting. For best performance center food below the broil

heating element. Broiling on rack position 6 is not

recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust

rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the

food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a

seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods

and foods that need to be cooked through should be

broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by

using Broil Lo.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper

element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of

meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior.

To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then

press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using

this mode.

Broil Lo

The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper

element to cook food thoroughly while also producing

surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat

and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way

through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and

then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when

using this mode.

Proof

Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and

proofing) bread doughs. Press the Proof pad and then

press Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out.

Bread will rise more rapidly than at room temperature.

Note that for double wall ovens, proof can not be run

when running a clean mode in the lower oven.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to

3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then

press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and

do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is

not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other

than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also

recommended that food not be kept warm for more than

2 hours.
