BAKEWARE/ RESULTS RECOMMENDATIONS Insulated cookie sheets or baking pans ■ Place in the bottom third of oven. ■ May need to increase baking time. ■ Little or no bottom browning Stainless steel ■ Light, golden crusts ■ Uneven browning ■ May need to increase baking time. Stoneware/Baking stone ■ Crisp crusts ■ Follow manufacturer's instructions. Ovenproof glassware, ceramic glass or ceramic ■ Brown, crisp crusts ■ May need to reduce baking temperatures slightly. Meat Thermometer On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish, are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer. Temperature Probe (on convection models) WARNING Burn Hazard Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe. Do not touch broil element. Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns. Keep probe as far away from heat source as possible. Close oven door. B A A. Temperature probe jack B. Temperature probe 1. Press the number pads to enter a probe temperature. The probe temperature can be set between 130°F and 190°F (54°C and 88°C). 2. Press BAKE, CONVECT BAKE or CONVECT ROAST. Press number pads to enter a temperature other than the one displayed. 3. Press START. The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display throughout cooking. "Lo" will appear as the probe temperature until the internal temperature of the food reaches 130°F (54°C) or if the probe is unplugged. Then the display will show the temperature increasing in 1°F increments. When the set probe temperature is reached, the oven will shut off automatically and "Cooking Complete" will appear on the oven display. If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound. 4. Press OFF or open the oven door to clear the display. To Change Probe Temperature, Oven Setting: Press OFF, then repeat previous steps. After cooking, unplug the probe and remove food from oven. The probe symbol will remain lit until the probe is unplugged from the probe jack. See "General Cleaning" section to clean probe. Oven Vent A The temperature probe accurately measures the internal temperature of meat, poultry and casseroles with liquid and should be used in determining the doneness of meat and poultry. It should not be used during full and center broiling, convection broiling, dehydrating or proofing bread. Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven when removing food. To Use: Before using, insert the probe into the center of the thickest portion of meat or into the inner thigh or breast of poultry, away from fat or bone at an angle as shown in following diagram. Place food in oven and connect the temperature probe to the jack. A. Oven vent cap The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Blocking or covering the oven vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent. 15
