USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls° Be sure you understand
how to set them properly. Read over the directions
for the Oven Controls so you understand how to use
them°
2. Check the inside of the oven. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing them
properly to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over the information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven°
NOTE:
•You may notice a "burning" or "oily" smell the first
few times you turn your oven OnoThis is normal in a
new oven and will disappear in a short time. To speed
the process, set a seN-clean cycle for 4 hours. See
the Self-Cleaniug Oven section°
• A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to
cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off°
•You will hear a convection fan while cooking with
the convection fea_tre, The fan wi!l stop when the
door is opened, but the heat wi_ not turn off.
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that,
when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they
will stop before coming completely out of the oven,
and will not tilt when you are removing food from
them or placing food on them.
When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out
to the bump on the shelf support. Place the cookware
on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into the oven°
This wii1 eliminate reaching into the hot oven_
To remove a shelf Bump
from the oven, pull it
toward you, tilt
the front end upward
and pull the shelf
out. Be sure the
shelf is cool before
touching it.
To replace, place
the shelf on the
shelf support with
the stop-locks (curved extension of shelf) facing up
and toward the rear of the oven. Tilt up the front and
push the shelf toward the back of the oven until it
goes past the bump on the shelf support, Then lower
the front of the shelf and push it all the way back°
NOTE: The shelves for the convection oven are
2 inches shorter than the regular oven shelves.
Sheff Positions
The oven has seven shelf supports identified in this
illustration as A (bottom), B, C, D, E, F and G (top),
Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the

CONVECTION COOKING
What is Convection?
In a convection
oven, a fan circulates
hot air over, under and
around the foo& This
circulating hot air is
evenly distributed
throughout the oven
cavity. As a result,
foods are evenly
cooked and
browned--often in
less time with
convection heat.
Because food is heated faster in a convection oven
when using the convection modes, many types of food
can be cooked at lower temperatures than those
suggested for regular ovens. Do remember that recipe
books often give times and temperatures for cooking
in regular ovens° Convection ovens make it possible to
reduce the temperature by 25°E
CAUTION: The convection oven fan shuts off when
the oven door is opened_ DO NOT leave the door open
for long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection
heating element°
When Should You Use Convection Bake or Convection Roast?
To help you understand the difference between
convection bake and roast and traditional bake and
roast, here are some general guidelineso
In convection bake, heat comes from the heating
element in the rear of the oven. The convection fan
circulates the heated air evenly, over and around the
food. Preheating is not necessary with foods having
a bake time of over 15 minutes.
In regular baking, the bottom oven element heats
the air in the oven which then cooks the food..
Convection Bake
- Ideal for baked foods cooked on 3 or more shelves.
(Additional shelves may be ordered. Pub No. 3-A014.)
•Good for large quantifies of baked foods.
•Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies, cream
puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.
Regular Bake
• Foods such as layer cakes have a more level top
crust when not baked with convection heat.
In convection roast, heat comes from the top oven
element. The convection fan circulates the heated air
evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are
browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie_ Using the roasting rack provided, heated air
will be circulated over, under and around the food
being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly
for a moist and tender product while, at the same
time, creating a rich golden brown exterior_
Convection Roast
• Large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
• Roasting pans with low sides to allow air movement
around food.
Regular Roast
•Less tender cuts of meat because these need to cook
a long time in liquid to become tender°
• Cooking bag
• Foil tent
.Covered dish
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check to see
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in
the oven° If you are baking with several pans, leave
space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not
touch each other or the wa!ls of the oven.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection
oven° However, metal pans heat the fastest and are
recommended for convection baking_
• Darkened or matte-finished pans wili bake faster
than shiny pans_
• Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly_
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in
convection ovens° Plastic cookwate that is heat-
resistant to temperatures of 400°E can also be used.
When baking cookies, you will get the best results
if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with
low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should
use a pan with low sides° Hot air cannot circulate
well around food in a pan with high sides.
11

CONVECTION BAKING
(upper oven only)
As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°E for
convection baking°
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake
time of over 15 minutes_
Check foods for doneness at the minimum
suggested cooking time.
Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
Multi-Shelf Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the
oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on
two, three or more shelves at a time. Multi-shelf
baking may increase cook times slightly for some
foods but the overall result is time saved. Multi-shelf
baking provides very good results with cookies,
biscuits and other quickbreads.
When baking on
three shelves, place
one shelf in the bottom
(A) position, one on
the third (C) position
and one in the fifth
(E) position.
O
O
O
NOTE: When convection baking with only one
shelf, follow the shelf positions recommended in
Oven Shelves in the Baking section.
CAUTION: Be very careful not to bum your hand on
the door when using a shelf in the lowest position (A)o
How to Set Your Oven for Convection Baiting
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
1, Press CONVECTION BAKE.
2. Press the number pads to set the
temperature.
3. Press START. When the oven starts to

4, Press CLEAR/OFF when baking is
finished.
NOTE:
* You will hear a convection fan while cooking with
this feature. The fan will stop when the door is
opened, but the heat will not turn off.
*A cooling fan may turn on and off to cool internal
parts° This is normal, and the fan may continue to
run even after the oven is turned off.
lTo change the oven temperature during the
Convection Bake cycle, press CONVECTION
BAKE and set the new temperature.

CONVECTION ROASTING
(upper oven only)
Meats cooked in a convection oven are dark brown on
the outside and tender and juicy on the inside, In most
cases, cooking time will be less when using the
Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking time is
reduced by 10 minutes per hour,
To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it,
we recommend using the temperature probe provided
with the oven, Your double oven has a probe in the
upper oven only,
The special roasting rack allows heated air to circulate
over and under the meat. This allows the meat to
brown on all sides,
NOTE:
•Use the temperature recommended in the
Convection Roasting Guide.
• Preheating is not necessary.
•Check foods for doneness at the minimum
suggested time°
•Use the special roasting rack with the broiler pan
and grid.
Convection Roasting Rack
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the lowest
shelf position (A).
When you are convection roasting you will use the
broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack.
The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid
is used to prevent grease spatters. The rack holds
the meat.
1. Place the shelf in the lowest shelf position (A)o
2. Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the
roasting rack over them making sure the posts on
the roasting rack fit into the holes in the broiler pan°
3. Place the meat on the special roasting rack.
See the Roasting with the Probe section to insert the
probe correctly.
NOTE: It is important that the broiler pan and
grid be used with the roasting rack for best
convection roasting results,

Jq'he U. S.. Deparl_ent of Agriculture says "Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°E means some food poisoning
organisms may survive,' (Source: Safe Food Bgok. YourKitchenGuide. USDA Rev, June 1985)
BAKING
Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control
system_ tt is recommended that you operate the oven for a number of weeks
to become familiar with your new oven's performance.
If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven Thermostat
section° It lists easy Do It Yourselfinsu'ucfions on how to adjust the
thermostat_
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place shelves in the correct
position before you turn the oven on.
1. Press BAKE.
2. Press the number pads to set the oven
temperature,
3. Press START. When the oven starts to heat
the changing temperature wil! be in the
display. (The display starts changing
once the temperature reaches 100°E)
4. Press CLEAR!OFF when baking
is Finished.
NOTE:
•A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to
cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during the
Bake cycle, press BAKE and set the new
temperature_

Oven Shelves
Arrange the oven
shelf or shelves in
the desired locations
while the oven is
cool. The correct
shelf position
depends on the kind
of food and the
browning desired°
As a general rule,
place most foods in
the middle of the
oven, on either shelf position C or Dr
See the chart for suggested shelf positions.
NOTE: To bake 4 layers of cake at one time,
position 2 layers on shelf B and 2 layers on shelf D
with the pans staggered so that one is not directly
above the other.

Preheating
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for itoPreheat means
bringing the oven up to the specified temperature
before putting the food in the oven° To preheat, set the
oven at the correct temperature--selecting a higher
temperaane does not shorten preheat time.
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat
10 minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the
food in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent
heat from escaping.
Baking Pans
Use the proper baking pan° The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
-Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
•Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking
in glass baking dishes, reduce the temperature by
25°I.
• If you are using daIk non-stick pans, you may find that
you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°E to
prevent over-browning.
Pan Placement
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to 1½-inch space between pans as well
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.
If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so
one is not directly above the other.
18

Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies_ Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results during baking, use only one cookie
sheet in the oven at a time.
Also see the Multi-Shelf Baking section.
Pies
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or duI1 pans
to produce a browner, crisper crest. Frozen pies in foil
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet
for baking since the shin.,! foil pan reflects heat away
from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.
Cakes
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products°
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended°
Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result in
poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil may be used
to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf
several inches below the food.
Don't Peek
Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do
not open the door' to took at your food. Most recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as "bake 30-40 minutes"
DO NOT open the door m check until the
minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently
during cooking allows heat to escape and makes
baking times longer. Your baking results may also
be affected.
