4. When roasting, put your food in the oven.
You do not have to preheat the oven when
roasting, unless your recipe recommends it.
5. Press START/ENTER.
A preheat conditioning time counts down the
approximate preheat time after the oven
temperature has been set and the start pad has
been pressed. The oven control automatically
sets preheating times based on the oven
temperature you select:
• For 245°F and less, the preheating time is
2 minutes, 30 seconds.
• For 250°F-445°F, the preheating time is
4 minutes, 15 seconds.
• For above 450°F, the preheating time is
6 minutes, 30 seconds.
As the preheat conditioning ends, the selected
oven temperature replaces “PrE” on the display
and the time of day reappears. You will hear a
1-second tone, indicating the oven is ready to
use.
Roasting meats and poultry
• For even cooking, place the meat on a rack in
a shallow pan. This keeps the meat out of the
drippings and allows the heat to circulate
better.
• Use a meat thermometer for the most
accurate doneness. Insert it so the tip is in
the center of the largest muscle or thickest
portion of the meat or poultry. Make sure the
thermometer is not touching bone, fat, or the
bottom of the pan.
