Using the baking feature.
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. It is recommended that you
operate the oven for a number of weeks using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your
new oven's performance.
If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven Thermostat section. It lists easy Do It Yourself
instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.

How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
Touch the BAKE pad.
Touch the + or – pad to set the oven
temperature.
Touch the START pad.
When the oven starts to heat, the
changing temperature will be in the
display. (The display starts changing
once the temperature reaches 100°F.)
Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven shelf or shelves in the
desired locations while the oven is cool.
The correct shelf position depends on the
kind of food and the browning desired.
As a general rule, place most foods in the
middle of the oven, on either shelf position
B or C. See the chart for suggested shelf
positions.
Preheating
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheat means bringing the oven up to the
specified temperature before putting the
food in the oven. To preheat, set the oven
at the correct temperature—selecting a
higher temperature does not shorten
preheat time.
Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation
and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet
of foil may be used to catch a spillover by
placing it on a lower shelf several inches
below the food.
To change the oven temperature during the
Bake cycle, touch the BAKE pad and set the
new temperature.
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when the
baking is finished.
NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on
and off to cool internal parts. This is normal,
and the fan may continue to run even after the
oven is turned off.
Type of Food
Angel food cake
Frozen pies (on cookie sheet)
Bundt or pound cakes
Roasting
Biscuits, muffins, brownies,
cookies, cupcakes,
layer cakes, pies, pie shells
Casseroles
Preheating is necessary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads. For most casseroles and roasts,
preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone,
preheat 10 minutes. After the oven is
preheated, place the food in the oven
as quickly as possible to prevent heat
from escaping.
