Multiple Rack Baking for Cakes When baking four layer cakes at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other. For best results use Bake mode. Place the cakes on racks 3 and 5, staggering the cakes in the oven as shown below. 4 Cakes, Rack Placement 3 and 5 For best results when baking cookies on multiple racks, use True Convection mode. Place cookies on racks 3 and 6. Aluminum Foil 9 WARNING Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. Preheating the Oven ▯ Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven. ▯ Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, True Convection, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes. ▯ Preheat is not required for Speed Convection, Roast, Convection Roast, Proof, and Dehydrate modes. ▯ Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items. ▯ Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time. ▯ Once oven is preheated, open the oven door and place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature. ▯ Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating. Preheat Reminders The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom. ▯ Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry, casseroles and Speed Convection mode. ▯ Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply to your house is less than 240 volts. ▯ Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F. When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes. For Best Results ▯ Use the cooking recommendation charts which can be found in the Cooking Charts Use and Care Guide. ▯ Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction. ▯ Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently. ▯ Use the timer to keep track of cooking times. Baking Pans and Dishes ▯ Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some cookware manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of dish. Follow manufacturers' recommendations. ▯ Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware. ▯ Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations. ▯ Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time. ▯ Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the open oven door. ▯ Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven. Condensation It is normal for certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel. 14

cakes on racks 3 and 5, staggering the cakes in the

oven as shown below.

4 Cakes, Rack Placement 3 and 5

For best results when baking cookies on multiple racks,

and 6.

Aluminum Foil

WARNING

Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line

any part of the appliance, especially the oven

bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of

electric shock or fire.

Preheating the Oven

▯

Place oven racks in desired position before heating

the oven.

▯

Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection

Bake, True Convection, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil,

and Warm modes.

▯

Preheat is not required for Speed Convection, Roast,

Convection Roast, Proof, and Dehydrate modes.

▯

Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe

ingredients or food items.

▯

Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat

time.

▯

Once oven is preheated, open the oven door and

place food in the oven as quickly as possible to

minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven

temperature.

▯

Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating.

Preheat Reminders

The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is

normal that the preheat time is different than your

previous oven that had an exposed element on the

bottom.

▯

Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry,

casseroles and Speed Convection mode.

▯

Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply

to your house is less than 240 volts.

▯

Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer

preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F

is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.

When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not

preheat for more than 5 minutes.

Cooking Charts

Use and Care Guide

▯

Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid

temperature reduction.

▯

Use the interior oven light to view the food through the

oven window rather than opening the door frequently.

▯

Use the timer to keep track of cooking times.

Baking Pans and Dishes

▯

Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Some cookware

manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature

25° F when using this type of dish. Follow

manufacturers’ recommendations.

▯

Use pans that provide the desired browning. For

tender, light, golden brown crusts, use light, anodized

or shiny metal bakeware.

▯

Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will

absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust.

Some manufacturers recommend reducing the

temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow

manufacturers’ recommendations.

▯

Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the

length of cooking time.

▯

Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the

open oven door.

▯

Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during

cooking as this changes cooking performance. Store

the broil pan outside the oven.

Condensation

It is normal for certain amount of moisture to evaporate

from the food during any cooking process. The amount

depends on the moisture content of the food. The

moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the

inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
