About Your Oven
Above you will find an illustration of an oven showing the components of the oven.
Cooling Fan
The oven has a cooling fan to cool the control panel. You may hear this fan continue to run after
cooking and/or cleaning has been completed. The fan will run as long as the oven is hot and the
oven’s function selector is turned to any position other than “Off’. This is normal operation.
Rack Positions
The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the illustration. Each level guide consists
of paired supports formed in the sidewalls on each side of the oven cavity. The rack should be
positioned within the paired supports. Always be sure to position the oven racks, etc. before
turning the oven on. Make sure that the rack(s) are level once they are in position.

Baking Elements
The oven uses two elements for baking: one located at the top of the oven and the second located
below the floor of the oven cavity to provide ease in cleaning the oven cavity.
Grilling Element
The grilling element of the oven is located at the top of the oven cavity. Do not touch the heating
element or let oven gloves touch the grilling element. Never use a towel or bulky cloth for an oven
glove; they could catch on fire.
Convection Element
The convection elements (not visible) and fans are located at the back of the oven cavity. This
element and fan combination performs the cooking when in the convection bake mode. When in
any of the convection modes the fan is on, see Table 1.
About Convection Ovens
In a conventional oven, the heat sources cycle on and off to maintain an average temperature
in the oven cavity. As the temperature gradually rises and falls, gentle air currents are produced
within the oven. This natural convection tends to be inefficient because the currents are irregular
and slow. In this convection system, the heat is “conveyed’ by a fan that provides continuous
circulation of the hot air. This European Convection system provides state-of-the-art engineering
and advanced design to create the finest convection oven. In standard convection ovens, a fan
simply circutates the hot air around the food. The system is characterized by the combination
of an additional heating element located around the convection fan and the venting panel that
distributes heated air in three dimensions: along the sides, the top and the full depth of the oven
cavity. This European Convection system aids in maintaining a more even oven temperature
throughout the oven cavity. The circulating air aids in speeding up the baking process and cooks
the food more evenly. By controlling the movement of heated air, convection cooking produces
evenly browned foods that are crispy on the outside yet moist inside. Convection cooking works
best for breads and pastries as well as meats and poultry. Air-leavened foods like angel food
cakes, soufflés and cream puffs rise higher than in a conventional oven. Meats stay juicy and
tender while the outside is flavorful and crisp. By using European Convection, foods can be
cooked at a lower temperature and cooking times can be shorter. When using this mode, the
standard oven temperature should be lowered by 25°F (15°C). Foods requiring less cooking
time should be checked slightly earlier than normal. For best results, foods should be cooked
uncovered, in low-sided pans to take advantage of the forced air circulation. When using the
Convection Roast mode, the standard oven temperature does not need to be reduced.

General Oven Tips
Preheating the Oven
•Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake and Convection Roast modes.
•Use BOOST mode when a short time is necessary to preheat the oven.
•Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.
•Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.
•Preheating will help to sear roasts and seal in meat juices.
•Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.
•During preheating, the selected cooking temperature is always displayed.
•A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated
Operational Suggestions
•Use the cooking charts as a guide.
•Do not set pans on the open oven door.
•Use the interior oven lights to view the food through the oven door window rather than opening
the door frequently.
Utensils
•Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25 °F (15 °C) when baking in glass.
•Use pans that give the desired browning. The type of finish on the pan will help determine the
amount of browning that will occur.
•Shiny, smooth metal or light non-slick / anodized pans reflect heat, resulling in lighter, more
delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of utensil.
•Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulling in a browner, crisper crust. Use this type for
pies.
•For brown, crisp crusts, use dark non-slick / anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bake
ware. Insulated baking pans may increase the length of cooking time.
•Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven, as this could change cooking performance.
Store the broil pan outside of the oven.
Oven Condensation and Temperature
•It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking
process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense
on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
•Your new oven has an electronic temperature sensor that allows maintaining the selected
temperature accurately. Your previous oven may have had a mechanical thermostal that drifted
gradually over time to a higher temperature. It is normal that you may need to adjust your
favorite recipes when cooking in a new oven.
High A titude Baking
•When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time will vary from the standard.

GB
8
Oven Racks
•The oven has rack guides at six levels as shown in the illustration on Page 5.
•Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rack guide (#1) to the top (#6).
•Check cooking charts for best rack positions to use when cooking.
•Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the walls on each side of the oven
cavity.
•Always be sure to position the oven racks before turning on the oven. Make sure that the
racks are level once they are in position.
Please refer to illustration on Page 5 if there is any question as to which side is the front of
the rack.
•The racks are designed to stop when pulled forward to their limit.
CAUTTON
Never use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line the oven. It can cause damage to the
oven liner if heat is trapped under the foil.
Make sure you do not force it to avoid
damage to the ename.

Bake Tips and Techniques
Baking is cooking with heated air. Both upper and lower elements in the oven are used to heat the air
but no fan is used to circulate the heat. Follow the recipe or convenience food directions for baking
temperature, time and rack position. Baking time will vary with the temperature of ingredients and the size,
shape and finish of the baking utensil.
General Guidelines
s For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1” - 1 y” (2,5 - 3 cm) space between utensils
and oven walls.
s Use one rack when selecting the bake mode.
s Check for doneness at the minimum time.
s Use metal bake ware (with or without a non stick finish), heatproof glass, glass-ceramic, pottery or
other utensils suitable for the oven.
s When using heatproof glass, reduce temperature by 25 °F (15 °C) from recommended temperature.
s Use baking sheets with or without sides or jelly roll pans.
s Dark metal pans or non-stick coatings will cook faster with more browning. Insulated bake ware will
slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
s Do not use aluminum foil or disposable aluminum trays to line any part of the oven. Foil is an excellent
heat insulator and heat will be trapped beneath it. This will alter the cooking performance and can
damage the finish of the oven.
s Avoid using the opened door as a shelf to place pans.
s Tips for Solving Baking Problems are found on Page 32.
