OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Bake
Bake cooks with heat that rises from the oven
bottom. The heat and air circulate naturally in the
oven. A reminder tone will sound indicating when
the set bake temperature is reached and to place
the food in the oven.
The oven can be programmed to bake at any tem-
perature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C). The
factory preset automatic bake temperature is 350°F
(177°C).
Baking Tips
For best bake results:
•
Fully preheat the oven before baking.
•
When baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits,
and breads using a single rack place rack in
position 4.
•
When using any single rack for items like frozen
pies, angel food cake, breads, and casseroles,
use rack position 3.
•
For best results when baking cakes using two
oven racks, place racks in positions 3 and 5
(See Figure 12).
•
When baking using two oven racks, position
cookware as shown in Figure 12.
•
Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between
cookware for proper air circulation.
•
Do not leave oven light on while baking.
