CHOICE BAKE™ Function
The CHOICE BAKE™ function eliminates the top heat during 
oven cooking. It is ideal for baking pies, casseroles and breads, 
and for roasting foods that require longer and slower cook times 
such as poultry and roasts.
Similar to the baking and roasting function, the bake elements or 
burners cycle on and off at intervals during CHOICE BAKE™ 
function. However, the cycle duration for the broil element is 
much shorter during CHOICE BAKE™ cycle, allowing less top 
browning of foods and more customized control for your baking 
results.
To Use:
1.
Press CHOICE BAKE™ function.
Press the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to set a 
temperature other that 350°F (175°C) in five degree amounts. 
The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (80°C 
and 260°C).
2.
Press START.
The temperature can be changed after this step. Start does 
not need to be pressed again.
3.
Press OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.
To use the CHOICE BAKE™ function during a regular BAKE cycle 
to achieve less top browning, press CHOICE BAKE™ control, set 
the desired temperature and press START.
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.
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 Custom Broil:
1.
Press CUSTOM BROIL.
2.
Press TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pad to change the 
temperature in 5° amounts. The broil range can be set 
between 300°F (150°C) and HI (525°F [275°C]). 
3.
Press START/ENTER.
4.
Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.
BROILING CHART
For best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil 
burner. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted 
for individual tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered 
from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
