BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake)
Full power heat is radiated from the bake burner in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated with
natural airow. This function is recommended for single rack baking. Many cook books contain recipes
to be cooked in the conventional manner. Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high
temperature. Use this setting for baking and casseroles.
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position
before turning the oven on and close the
door.
2. Push and hold the oven control knob
for at least one second. Release and turn
it anticlockwise, setting the desidered
temperature. This sequence must be
performed within seven seconds. If you hear
a clicling sound while lighting up the oven,
this is appropriate.
Note: if the oven does not light up after ve attempts, open the oven door and let the gas out; for your safety,
open the window of the kitchen.
Baking Tips
• Make sure the oven racks are in the desired position before you turn on the oven.
• DO NOT open the door frequently during baking. Look through the door
window to check doneness whenever possible. If you must open the door, the best time is during the last
quarter of the baking time.
• Bake to the shortest time suggested and check for doneness before adding more time. For baked food, a
stainless steel knife placed in the center of the product should come out clean when done.
• Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe to ensure best results. Cakes, quick breads, mufns, and
cookies should be baked in shiny, reective pans for light, golden crusts. Avoid the use of old, darkened pans.
Warped, dented, stainless steel and tin-coated pans heat unevenly and will not give uniform baking results.
