NOTE: Bakeware materials and color may affect results. Dark, dull, non-stick or glass pans may require shorter baking times, in contrast insulated or stainless steel pans may require longer baking times. Follow bakeware manufacturer's recommendations.

It may remove the rack's lubricant and affect its ability to slide. See the "General Cleaning" section in the Owner's Manual for more information. Air Fry Basket (on some models) When using the Air Fry feature, position the air fry basket directly on top of a large baking sheet. See Positioning Racks and Bakeware section of your Control Guide for placement of basket and sheet for best performance. Avoid using more than one basket to avoid uneven cooking. Baking and Roasting Preheating When beginning a Bake cycle, the oven will begin preheating after START keypad for respective oven is pressed. The oven will take approximately 13 to 19 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C) with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat before the tone sounds. 5
