Oven Vent A B A. Ends of rack in position 3 B. Food in position 2 IMPORTANT: These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as shown in the previous figure. Multiple Rack Cooking Two-rack (non-convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. Two-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 5 or 3 and 6. Three-rack (convection): Use rack positions 2 and 7 and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 5. Baking Cookies and Layer Cakes on Two Racks Baking Layer Cakes For best results when baking cakes on two racks, use the Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 5, and a flat rack in rack position 2. If you do not have two flat racks, use a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6. Place the cakes on the racks as shown. Keep at least 3" (7.6 cm) of space between the front of the racks and the front cakes. Baking Cookies For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the Convection Bake function, a flat rack in rack position 5, and a flat rack in rack position 2. If you do not have two flat racks, use a flat rack in rack position 2 and a Max Capacity Oven Rack in rack position 6. If you do not have Convection Bake, use the standard Bake function. A A. Oven vent The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven and should not be blocked or covered. 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. Baking and Roasting Preheating When beginning a Bake, or Convect Bake cycle, the oven will begin preheating after Start is pressed. The oven will take approximately 12 to 15 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. Rapid Preheat Rapid Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only one standard flat oven rack should be in the oven during Rapid Preheat. Extra racks should be removed prior to starting. The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in the oven. When the Rapid Preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake cycle. IMPORTANT: Rapid Preheat should be used only for one-rack baking. Oven Temperature While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to maintain a consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to use the oven light to monitor cooking progress. NOTE: On models with convection, the convection fan may run in the non-convection Bake mode to improve oven performance. Temperature Management System The temperature management system electronically regulates the oven heat levels during preheat and Bake to maintain a precise temperature range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements or burners cycle on and off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan will run while preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during Bake to provide the best results. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use. Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting food in, unless it is recommended in the recipe. 15
