Cooking Modes
Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below.
Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.
Baking and Roasting Modes
Select a mode for baking and roasting based on the
type and quantity of food you are preparing. When
preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and
pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe
recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines
are provided, center food in the oven.
Bake
The bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This
mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but
also from the upper element to cook food. To use this
mode press the Bake pad, enter a temperature, and
then press Start. Preheating is generally recommended
when using this mode.
Convection Bake Multi Rack
The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended for
baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode
uses heat primarily from the rear element, when available,
but also heat from the upper and lower elements, along
with air movement from the convection fan to enhance
cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped with Auto
Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to convert the
temperature when using this mode. Baking time might
be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be
expected for a single rack. To use this mode press the
Convection Bake pad, enter a temperature, and then
press Start. Always preheat when using this mode.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses
heat from the lower, upper, and rear elements, when
available, along with air movement from the convection
fan to improve browning and reduce cooking time. It is not
necessary to convert temperature. Check food earlier than
the recipe suggested time when using this mode or use
a meat probe. To use this mode press the Convection
Roast pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start. It
is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Air Fry (Lower Oven Only)
Air Fry is a special, no-preheat, cooking mode that is
designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than
traditional oven cooking. The Air Fry mode is intended
for single rack cooking only. Select Air Fry, then input
the desired set temperature and press Start. The
temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F.

Preheating is not recommended for this mode. Follow
traditional oven recipe or package guidelines for set
temperatures and cook times; adjust cook time to
achieve your desired crispness. Additional guidelines
for using this mode can be found in the Air Fry Cooking
Guide.
Broiling Modes
Broiling is available in both ovens. For better broiling,
the lower oven is recommended. When broiling in the
upper oven, the door should remain CLOSED. When
broiling in the lower oven, the door should remain OPEN.
broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to
the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and the
possibility of fats igniting. For best performance center
food below the broil heating element.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack
positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food.
Place foods closer to the broil element when a seared
surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and
foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on
a rack position farther from the broiler or by using Broil Lo.
Broil Hi
The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper
this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start.
It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
Broil Lo
The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper
element to cook food thoroughly while also producing
through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and
then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when
using this mode.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot food hot, it is not
intended to heat cold food. To use this mode, press the
Warm pad then press Start. Preheating is not required.
Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover
foods that should be crisp. It is recommended, for food
quality, that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.
