When the oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent; this is normal. flat oven rack flat handle oven rack oven vent location Figure 2: Do not block oven vent location offset oven rack Protective Liners — Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil. Doing so will alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. During self clean temperatures, the oven will be hot enough to melt foil. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. Figure 3: Types of oven racks Oven Rack Descriptions Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, as well as the oven racks, will become very hot which can cause burns. • Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions. • The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional step down positions from the standard flat rack design. The offset design positions the base of the rack about half of a rack position lower than the flat rack and may be used in most oven rack positions. • This model comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes difficult to slide. Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool (prior to operating the oven). To remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out. To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using. Air circulation in the oven For best air circulation when baking, allow a space of 2 inches (5 cm) around the bakeware for proper air circulation. Be sure pans and bakeware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides, or back of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate around bakeware for even heat to reach the food. 8 Oven Controls 19 1 2 3 4 5 6 9 7 11 10 12 13 17 8 15 14 16 18 Oven control features Minimum & maximum control settings 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Oven Controls Setting Conv Bake Benefits of the convection bake feature: • Foods may cook up to 25% faster, saving time and energy. • Multiple rack baking. • No special pans or bakeware needed. The convection function uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven (Figure 13). This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time. Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly. Because most food items will cook faster and more evenly with the convection feature, it is advisable to reduce recipe’s recommended temperature by 25° for best results. Follow the remainder of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum recommended cook time. Figure 13: Air circulation in the convection function Conv Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C). • The convection fan will begin rotating once Conv Bake, Conv Roast or Conv Convert has been activated. • If the oven door is opened when the convection function is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until the oven door is closed. • When using Conv Bake, cook time reductions may vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked. • Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware resulting in dark or over browning of foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to prevent over browning of some foods. Dark pans are recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies and muffins. • Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will reduce the temperature and may increase cook time. To set Conv Bake with a default oven set temperature of 350°F: 1. Press Conv Bake. 2. Press . To cancel Conv Bake at any time press . Convection bake rack positions: • Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits and breads. • When using any single rack, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven. • For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (Figure 14). • When baking using 2 oven racks, position bakeware as shown in Figure 14. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation. 5 Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate around the food 3 • 4 2 1 Figure 14: Convection rack positions and pan spacing 14 Oven Controls Setting Conv Roast To add Conv Convert to Conv Bake function using default oven set temperature of 350°F: The Conv Roast function combines a cook cycle with the convection fan to roast meats and poultry.
