Setting Bake Bake cooks with heat that rises from the oven bottom. The heat and air circulate naturally in the oven. A reminder tone will sound indicating when the set bake temperature is reached and to place the food in the oven. The convection fan will turn on during preheat and then turn on and off as needed during the baking process. Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C). CAUTION Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking the oven interior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns. Baking tips • Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads. • Use the convection bake function for best results when baking cookies on multiple racks. • Bake is the best function to use for baking cakes. • For best results when baking layer cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 1 flat and 4 glide and place pans as shown in Figure 13. • When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes, biscuits, or muffins use rack position 3 flat or 2 glide. • Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation. • Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware, resulting in dark or over browned foods. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature or cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. • Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins. • Do not open oven door often. Opening the door will reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase cook time. SETTING OVEN CONTROLS To set Bake for (default) oven temperature of 350°F: 1.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Setting Bake

Bake cooks with heat that rises from the oven bottom. The

heat and air circulate naturally in the oven. A reminder tone

will sound indicating when the set bake temperature is

reached and to place the food in the oven. The convection

fan will turn on during preheat and then turn on and off as

needed during the baking process.

Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F

(77°C) to 550°F (288°C).

Baking tips

•

Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,

cakes, biscuits and breads.

•

Use the convection bake function for best results when

baking cookies on multiple racks.

•

Bake is the best function to use for baking cakes.

•

For best results when baking layer cakes using two

oven racks, place racks in positions 1 flat and 4 glide

and place pans as shown in

Figure 13

•

When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes,

biscuits, or muffins use rack position 3 flat or 2 glide.

•

Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between

bakeware for proper air circulation.

•

Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny

bakeware, resulting in dark or over browned foods. It

may be necessary to reduce oven temperature or cook

time to prevent overbrowning of some foods.

•

Shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies, and

muffins.

•

Do not open oven door often. Opening the door will

reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase

cook time.
