USING THE RANGE: Oven Cooking Modes
Oven 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 rack position and other recommendations for specific modes and foods.
Bake
The traditional 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.
Preheatingisgenerallyrecommendedwhenusingthis
mode. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter a
temperature with the number pads, and then press Start/
Enter.
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 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
Conv Bake pad, enter a temperature with number pads,
and then press Start/Enter.
Convection Roast
This mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a
single rack. The utilization of all three elements and direct
airflow down from the top of the oven improves browning
and reduces cooking time. Check food earlier than the
recipe suggests or use the probe when using this mode.
To use this mode press the Conv Roast pad, enter a
temperature with the number pads, and then press Start/
Enter.
Broiling Modes
Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in
this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while
broiling.Usecautionwhenbroilingonupperrack
positions as placing food closer to the broil element
increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats
igniting. Broiling on rack position 6 is not recommended.
Broiling can be used for foods that would typically be
grilled.
Adjust the rack position in order to vary the intensity
oftheheattothefood.Placefoodsclosertothebroil
element when a seared surface and rare interior are
desired. For best performance center the food below the
broil heating element.
PresstheBroil pad twice for High or once for Low
depending on the amount of searing and the internal
temperature that is preferred. The High setting is best for
thinnercutsofmeatand/orfoodsyoupreferlessdone
on the interior. The Low setting is preferred for thicker
cuts of meat and foods you liket o be cooked all the way
through. It is not necessary to preheat the oven for these
modes. Then press Start/Enter.
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 Cooking Guide.
Baked Goods
The Baked Goods mode is designed for cooking cakes,
breads, cookies, and similar foods on a single rack. This
mode is designed to provide lighter top browning and
better volume. Some foods may require slightly longer
cook times relative to when cooked in the traditional bake
mode.PressOptions and select Baked Goods than
follow any display prompts to access this mode.
Frozen Snacks
The Frozen Snacks modes are designed to cook frozen
foods such as potato nuggets, French fries, and similar
frozen snacks and appetizers. Most foods will cook
within package recommended time. Adjust cooking time
accordingtoindividualpreferences.PressOptions and
select Frozen then follow any display prompts to access
this mode.
UseFrozenSnacksSinglewhencookingfrozensnacks
on a single rack. This mode does not require preheating
the oven. Food should be placed in the oven before or
immediately upon starting this mode.

preheating cycle to prepare the oven for multi-rack
baking.
