14 Setting Oven Controls BAKE Bake may be set with these options: 1) fast preheat; 2) cook time; or 3) delayed start, achieved through using the cook time and end time settings. The meat probe can be used in this mode. To set the oven for bake at the default oven temperature of 350°F (176°C): Always use pot holders or oven mitts when working with a hot oven. When baking, the oven interior and oven racks will become hot enough to cause burns. Do not bake foods directly on the oven bottom. To avoid damaging the oven interior and surfaces, always bake foods in the oven using bakeware positioned on an oven rack 1. Press OVEN to activate the cooking modes keys. 2. Press bake.

Baking Tips • Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits, or breads. • When using a single rack for baking, position the rack so that the food is in the center of the oven. • For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks, place bakeware on oven rack positions 1 (using a glide rack) and 4 (using a flat rack) (Figure 14) and place pans as shown in Figure 15. • Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation. • Dark or dull pans and glass absorb more heat than shiny bakeware resulting in dark or over browning of foods. To prevent this 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 too often. Opening the door will reduce the temperature in the oven. • For cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection bake function for best results when using multiple racks. 5 4 3 2 1 2. Press bake. 3.
