Baking Tips
For best bake results:
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
cakes, biscuits, and breads.
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that
the food is in the center of the oven.
• For best results when baking cakes using two oven
racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (See
Figure 8 ).
• When baking using two oven racks, position cookware
as shown in
Figure 9 . Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of
space between cookware for proper air circulation.
• Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware. It may be necessary to reduce oven temper-
ature and cook time to prevent overbrowning of some
foods. Dark bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny
bakeware is recommended for cakes, cookies, and
muffins.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as
cakes, pastries, and breads, use the convection
function for best results.

1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Press bake. 350 will appear in the display.
3. Press 3 7 5.
4. Press start. The actual temperature will be displayed. A

To change the bake temperature (example: changing
from 375°F to 425°F):
1. After the oven has already been set to bake at 375°F
and the oven temperature needs to be changed to
425°F, press bake and 375 will appear in the display.
2. Press 4 2 5.
3. Press start.
Adjusting Oven Temperature
The temperature in the oven is pre-set at the factory. When
first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and
temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too
cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the
actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is
displayed. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a
temperature setting higher or lower than the recommended
temperature. The baking results should help you to decide
how much of an adjustment is needed.
To adjust the oven temperature higher:
1. Press bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear in the
display.
2. To increase the temperature, use the number keys to
enter the desired change. For example, for 30°F, press
3 0. The temperature may be increased as much as
35°F (19°C).
3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the
display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject
the change if necessary.
To adjust the oven temperature lower:
1. Press bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear in the
display.
2. To decrease the temperature, use the number keys to
enter the desired change (Example -30°F) 3 0. Then,
press self clean. The temperature may be decreased
as much as 35°F (19°C).
3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the
display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject
the change if necessary.
Pressing Off at any time will stop the feature.
