Cooking with your Oven Rack Positions Product Controls Each oven is equipped with tilt-proof racks and at least one TruGlide rack. With the TruGlide rack, the bottom section remains in the oven and the top section smoothly glides outward when pulled. This reduces the chances of spills and makes removing heavy items from the oven much easier. Below is a list of how many TruGlide racks are found in each oven. Please note that the TruGlide rack can be used in any of the six rack positions.
Cooking with your Oven Preheat Baking Tips Preheat • 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.

Solving Baking Problems Roasting Instructions Baking problems can occur for many reasons. Check the Baking Problem chart for the causes and recommended remedies for the most common problems. It is important to remember that the temperature setting and cooking times you are accustomed to using with your previous oven may vary slightly from those required with this oven. If you find this to be true, it is necessary for you to adjust your recipes and cooking times accordingly.
Using the Meat Probe Conventional Roasting Chart (Premiere/French Door Models) For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The meat probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want. NOTE: Double oven models have a probe in the upper oven only. Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe.

Broiling Instructions Broiling Chart Broiling Tip • Always use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface to help prevent splatter, smoke, and fire. • To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge. • Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler tray. • Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time, season, and turn.
