Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.
Bake
The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode
uses heat primarily from the lower burner but also from
the upper burner to cook food. When preparing baked
goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries always
preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations
for food placement. If no guidelines are provided center

Warm/Warming Drawer (on some models)
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to

Drawer pad then press Start. Cover foods that need
to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be
crisp. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to
heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry

positions as placing food closer to the broil burner
increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility
of fats igniting. Broiling on rack position 5 is not
recommended.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil burner when a
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods
and foods that need to be cooked through should be
broiled on a rack position farther from the burner or by

may use heat from the upper and lower burners, along
with air movement from the convection fan to enhance

press the Bake Multi Rack pad under Convection,
enter a temperature, and then press Start. Always
preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode may use
heat from the upper and lower bake burner along with
air movement to improve browning and reduce cooking
time. It is not necessary to convert temperature. Check
food earlier than the recipe suggested time when using

Cookware
Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
RYHQWHPSHUDWXUHE\ƒ)QH[WWLPH
Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked
goods such as cakes and cookies.
Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.
These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies
and custards.
Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom
browning.
Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.
