Preheating

Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat, poultry and fish. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. s Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.

After START/ENTER is touched, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning cycle. The Temp, Bake, and On indicator lights will light up. The Electronic Oven Control automatically selects the conditioning cycle time based on the oven temperature selected. The conditioning cycle time will not change if the temperature is reset before the cycle countdown ends. The preheat conditioning cycle is complete and the oven is ready to use when a 1-second tone sounds, the cycle countdown ends, and the set temperature is displayed. Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven temperature to differ. Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat conditioning time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking soda and eggs.

After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat ½" (1.3 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, cook the meat or poultry longer. Check all meat, poultry and fish in 2 or 3 different places.

Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the temperature when Custom Broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures. s For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some models). They are designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. See �Assistance or Service� section to order. Ask for Part Number 4396923. s For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.

A. Oven vent

The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

Baking and Roasting
IMPORTANT: Do not place food or cookware directly on the oven door or the oven bottom. Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the �Positioning Racks and Bakeware� section. To Bake or Roast: 1. Touch BAKE. Touch TEMP �up� or �down� arrow pads to set a temperature other than 350°F (177°C) in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C). 2. Touch START/ENTER. The temperature can be changed at any time after this step by touching the TEMP/TIME �up� or �down� arrow pads. START/ENTER does not need to be touched again. If baking/ roasting while the Timer is counting down, the set baking/ roasting temperature can be displayed for 5 seconds by touching BAKE. 3. Touch OFF/CANCEL when finished.

Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid curling. Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.

s

After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult. Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.

To Broil:
1. Press CUSTOM BROIL. 2. Press START/ENTER. 3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.
