On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat 
thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The 
internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts. A meat 
thermometer is not supplied with this appliance.

■

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 reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat 

¹⁄₂ 

in. (2 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, 
cook the meat or poultry longer.

■

Check pork and poultry in two or three places.

The oven vent should not be blocked or covered since it allows 
the release of hot air and moisture from the oven. Doing so will 
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. 
Never set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn 
near the oven vent.

The ACCUBAKE system electronically regulates the oven heat 
levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature 
range for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil elements 
cycle on and off in intervals. The bake element will glow red when 
cycling on, the broil element will not. This feature is automatically 
activated when the oven is in use.

If the oven door is opened during baking and roasting, the broil 
element will turn off immediately and the bake element will turn 
off in 2 minutes. They will come back on once the door is closed.

Before baking and roasting, position the racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is 
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food 
in, unless recommended in the recipe.

On double oven models only, press UPPER OVEN or LOWER 
OVEN.

Close oven door. The display will show “door” and the 
heating elements will not heat if the door is open when baking 
and roasting.

Press BAKE.

Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to enter a 
temperature other than 350°F (177°C). The bake range can be 
set between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).

Press START/ENTER.

A preheat time will count down and “PrE°” will appear on the 
oven display if the actual oven temperature is under 170°F 
(77°C).

When the  actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the 
timer will continue counting down. The temperature setting 
can be changed any time after pressing START/ENTER.

When the set temperature is reached, if enabled, one tone will 
sound.

Press UPPER OFF, LOWER OFF or OFF/CANCEL when 
finished cooking.
