Your oven is designed with the ACCUBAKE

®

temperature management system to constantly
monitor oven temperature. The burner element will
cycle, as needed, to maintain the desired
temperature. This feature is automatically activated
when the oven is in operation.

1.

Place the racks where you need them in the

oven. For more
information, see
“Positioning racks and
pans” under “Using the
Oven”, earlier in this
section.

2.

Choose the bake setting.

3.

Set the temperature (optional).

Do this step if you want to set a temperature
other than 350°F. Press

▲ to raise the

temperature or ▼ to lower the temperature in
5°F amounts. Use these pads until the desired
temperature shows on the small display.

When roasting, put your food in the oven.

You do not have to
preheat the oven when

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.

USING YOUR RANGE

IMPORTANT: Do not try to light the oven burner
during a power failure. Never place food or
cookware directly on the oven door or the oven
bottom.
