Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire oven rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door
or bottom.
Bakeware
To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow
2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Make
sure that no bakeware piece is directly over another.
Racks
Position racks before turning on the oven.
■
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
■
Make sure racks are level.
■
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front
edge, and then lift out. Use the following illustration as a guide.

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 4, and a flat rack in rack
position 2. 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 on Two Racks
For best results when baking cookies on two racks, use the
Convect Bake function and place flat racks in positions 2 and 5.

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 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.
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.
The convection fan will shut off when the oven door is opened.
If the oven door remains open for too long, the heating elements
will shut off until the oven door is closed. All timers, including any
active Cook Time or Timed Cook functions, will continue to count
down.
