CAUTION
Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat
or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of
these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more

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 Oven Cooking Guide section for rack position and other recommendations for specific modes and foods.
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.
Traditional Bake
The Bake mode is for baking and roasting. When preparing
baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries, always
preheat the oven first. To use this mode press the Bake
pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start.
Convection Bake
This mode uses air movement from the convection fan
to enhance cooking evenness. Your oven is equipped
with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to
adjust the temperature when using this mode. Always
preheat 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.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses air
movement from the convection fan to improve browning
and reduce cooking time. Check food earlier than the
recipe suggested time when using this mode. To use
this mode press the Convection Roast pad, enter a
temperature, and then press Start.
Use WiFi connect to enable this feature.
Air Fry
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.
Use WiFi connect to enable this feature.
Cookware Guidelines
The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking
performance.
Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily
than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more
readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust.
If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier
than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are
obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing
oven temperature by 25º F next time.
Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked
goods such as cakes and cookies.
Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well.
These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies
and custards.
Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom
browning.
Keepcookwarecleantopromoteevenheating.
Stoneware heats slowly and retains heat well. It is
recommended to preheat this type of cookware if
possible. Additional cook time may be required.
Cookware used in broil modes and air fry must be broil-
safe.
