Oven Vent
1. Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and 
should not be blocked or covered. 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.
Bake
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is 
not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to 
end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.
To Bake or Roast:
1.
Press BAKE. The “BAKE” indicator and “TEMP” indicator will 
light up. “350” will show on the oven display.
2.
Set the temperature (optional).
Press TEMP/TIME “up” or “down” arrow pad to set a 
temperature other than 350°F (177ºC) in 5°F (3ºC) amounts. 
The bake range can be set between 170°F (77ºC) and 500°F 
(260ºC).
When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F (77ºC), no 
preheat conditioning time will be shown in the display.
The preheat conditioning time will not change if the 
temperature is reset before the countdown time ends.
If baking and roasting while the minute timer is counting 
down, the set temperature can be seen for 5 seconds by 
pressing BAKE.
3.
Press START/ENTER. The “on” indicator light will light up.
The “TEMP” indicator light will turn off, and the display will 
show the automatic countdown time, about 6 minutes.
The oven control automatically sets preheating times based 
on the oven temperature selected. 
The temperature can be changed after this step. START/
ENTER does not need to be pressed again.
After the oven is preheated and the countdown time is 
finished, a 1-second tone will sound, the ON indicator light 
will stay on and the set temperature will appear on the 
display.
4.
Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.
Preheating
After START/ENTER is pressed, the oven will enter a timed 
preheat conditioning. “PrE” and the time countdown will appear 
on the display. When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone 
will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the 
display.
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.
Custom Broil
Custom Broil 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.
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the range. It is 
designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The 
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier 
cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on 
the edges to prevent 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.
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 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 
the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature.
