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.
Before baking, position racks according to the "Positioning
Racks and Bakeware" section.
• If the lower oven is not in use, the upper oven will preheat
more quickly.
• Allow at least 1/2"(1.3 cm) between the baking pan or
casserole and the top element in the upper oven. Loaf, angel
food or bundt pans are not recommended in the upper oven.
• When baking frozen, self-rise pizza in the upper oven, place
the pizza on a cookie sheet to avoid overbrowning.
When preheating with a baking/pizza stone inside the upper
oven, do not set oven above 400°F (205°C). To use baking/
pizza stones at temperatures above 400°F (205°C) in the
upper oven, put stone in after the preheat beep.

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.
• For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are
designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be
ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. Ask for
Part Number 12500100.
• 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 the Broiling Chart.
Preheat broil about 4 minutes. Position food on grid in the broiler
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.
To Broil:
1. Press BROIL. "BROIL," "UPPER," and "SEt" will flash in the
display until the door is closed.
2. Press the AUTOSET pad once to set HI Broil or twice to set
LO Broil. "HI" or "LO" will be displayed.
Select HI Broil (550°F/288°C) for normal broiling or LO Broil
(450°F/232°C) for low-temperature broiling.
After 4 seconds, the oven will start. "BROIL," "UPPER," and
"HI" or "LO" will remain lit.
3. Press Upper Oven CANCEL or UPPER STOP when finished
broiling.
