Whirlpool SF367LEH Manual Do Utilizador

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2 in. 
(5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the 
following chart as a guide.

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow 
manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size 
recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

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

■

Check all meat in two or three places.

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.

After turning the oven control knob to the desired temperature, 
the set temperature will appear in the display for 5 seconds. Then 
a preheat conditioning time counts down the approximate 
preheat time. This feature is included for your use if you are 
baking a food item that requires oven preheating. The oven 
control automatically sets preheating times based on the oven 
temperature you select, as shown below:

■

For 245ºF and less, the preheating time is 4 minutes.

■

For 250 - 445ºF, the preheating time is 10 minutes.

■

For above 450ºF, the preheating time is 15 minutes.

As the preheat conditioning ends, the time of day reappears. You 
will hear a 1-second tone indicating the oven is ready to use.

The electronic control regulates the preheat time and 
temperature to maintain a precise temperature range for the best 
cooking results. The preheat and set temperatures may be 
different at the end of the countdown. This is normal.
