Baking and Roasting
A. Broil element
B. Bake element
The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating
casseroles.
During baking or roasting, the bake and broil elements will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature. The bake
element will glow red when cycling on; the broil element will not
glow red. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is
in use.
If the oven door is opened during baking or roasting, the broil and
bake elements will turn off immediately. They will come back on
once the door is closed.
To Bake or Roast:
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 to preheat before putting food
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
On double oven models only, be sure to set the correct controls
for the oven (upper or lower) you want to use.
1. Turn the SELECTOR knob to BAKE. The display will read
350°F (175°C).
2. Turn the SET knob to desired temperature. The bake range
can be set between 170°F and 500°F (80°C and 260°C).
3. Press the ENTER button to start, or after 10 seconds, the
function will start automatically.
4. Turn the SELECTOR knob to the OFF position when finished
cooking.
Preheating
As the oven heats up, the preheat indicator arrows will turn on in
sequence. When the set temperature is reached, one tone will
sound.
Waiting an additional 10 minutes after preheating has finished to
put food into the oven is suggested when baking foods with
leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking
soda and eggs.

Broiling
A. Broil element
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the
temperature when broiling allows more precise control when
cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking.
Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and
poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance.
It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and
smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to avoid curling.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Before broiling, position rack according to Broiling Chart. It is not
necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.
On double oven models only, be sure to set the correct controls
for the oven (upper or lower) you want to use.
To Broil:
1. Close the door.
2. Turn the SELECTOR knob to BROIL. "HI" will appear on the
display.
3. Turn the SET knob to the desired broil level.
4. Press the ENTER button to start, or after 10 seconds, the
function will start automatically.
5. Turn the SELECTOR knob to the OFF position when finished
cooking.
