Setting Oven Controls
Setting Bake
Use the bake feature whenever the recipe calls for baking
using normal temperatures. A reminder tone will sound
indicating when the set Bake temperature is reached and to
place the food in the oven.
Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F
(77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Always use pot holders or oven mitts
when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior,
oven racks and cooktop will become very hot which can
cause burns.
Example — To set Bake with default oven
temperature of 350°F:
1. Press Bake keypad.
2. Press START.
To cancel bake at anytime press OFF.
Example — To set Bake for oven temperature of
425°F:
1. Press Bake keypad.
2. Enter 4 2 5 using numeric keypads.
3. Press START.
To cancel Bake at anytime press OFF.
Important notes:
• The oven will bake no longer than 12 hours. If you wish to
continuously bake, see Changing between continuous
bake setting or 12-Hour Energy Saving feature for
detailed information.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware
resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be
necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time
to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are
recommended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for
cakes, cookies and muffins.
Bread Proof
This range has a Bread Proof feature for preparing bread
dough. The recommended length of time to keep the bread
dough in the oven is about 45-60 minutes. Be sure however
to follow the recipe’s recommended times.
Since the bread dough will nearly double in volume be sure
to place the prepared dough in a large bowl and arrange the
oven racks to allow for this increase in size.
To activate Bread Proof feature:
1. Place dough in the oven.
2. Press the Bread Proof keypad. The convection fan will
turn and the oven temperature will reach 100°F.
(See Fig. 1).
To cancel Bread Proof at anytime press OFF.
