Removing, Replacing, and Arranging Oven
Racks
Protective Liners -- Do not line the oven walls,
racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil.
Doing so will alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results,
and may cause permanent damage to the oven interior. During
self clean temperatures, the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual.
Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric
shock or fire.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, as well
as the oven racks, will become very hot which can cause burns.
To Arrange: Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is
cool (prior to operating the oven).
To Remove: Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches
the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out.
To Replace: Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides
of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and
slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level
before using.
Important: Be sure to remove all oven racks and accessories
before starting a self clean cycle. If the oven racks are not
removed, they may discolor.
Important: Some models are equipped with a cooling fan that
runs during the cooking process to cool internal electronic
components. It is normal for this fan to continue to run for an
extended period of time, even when the oven is off.

Oven Rack Descriptions
• Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be used
for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven
rack positions.
The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional
stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design. The
offset design positions the base of the rack about 1/2 of a
rack position lower than the flat rack and may be used in
most oven rack positions.
• To maximize oven cooking space, place the bottom oven
rack (some models) in the lowest rack position for baking or
roasting large cuts of meat.
• The fully extendable oven glide rack allows you to effort-
lessly extend your food away from the oven.
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around the
bakeware for proper air circulation and be sure pans and
bakeware do not touch each other, the oven door, sides or back
of the oven cavity. Hot air must be able to circulate around the
bakeware in the oven for even heat to reach around the food.
Before Setting Oven Controls
Glide Racks
The glide rack is an extendable rack that makes food prepara-
tion easier. It has glide tracks that allow the rack to be pulled
away from the oven without rubbing the sides of the oven wall.
Removing and Replacing the Oven Glide Racks
To remove the oven glide rack:
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, as well
as the oven racks, will become very hot which can cause burns.
Always remove/replace the oven racks before
turning on the oven (when the oven is cool).
1. Lift up on the release lever located across the lower front of
the rack, as shown in Figure 4.
2.
3.

5°
While holding up the release lever (Figure 5), pull the glide
rack out of the oven until the stop position is reached, use
two hands if necessary.
Using both hands, grasp the upper and lower portions of the
glide rack (Figure 6).
Lift up the front of the rack slightly and continue to pull the
rack away from the oven.
Be sure to grasp both upper and lower rack portions
together when removing or handling the glide rack. The
rack portions move independently and are difficult to
handle unless held together.
Figure 4: Extendable glide rack with release lever in locked
position
Figure 5: Extendable glide rack with release lever in unlocked

Baking Tips:
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits and breads.
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny bakeware,
resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It may be
necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook time to
prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark pans are recom-
mended for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes,
cookies, and muffins.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the convection bake function for
best results.
• Convection baking is preferred for multiple rack cooking.
• For best results when baking cakes or cookies using two
oven racks, place racks in positions 1 and 4 (Figure 12) and
place pans as shown in Figure 13. Use flat rack in position 4
and glide rack in position 1.
• When baking using two oven racks, position bakeware as
shown in Figure 13. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space
between bakeware for proper air circulation.
• Do not open the oven door too often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven.
• Glass bakeware is a slow heat condutor. May require
reducing oven temperature.

Setting Broil
Use the broil function to cook meats that require direct exposure
to radiant heat for optimum browning results. The Broil feature is
factory preset to broil at 550°F. The Broil function temperature
may be set at any temperature between 400°F (205°C) and
550°F (288°C).
The suggested broil settings in Table 2 are recommendations
only. Depending on cooking preferences you can increase or
decrease cooking times or move food to a different rack posi-
tion. If the food you are broiling is not listed in n Table 2, follow
the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item
closely.
To set Broil with the default broil oven temperature of 550°F:
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks, and cook-
top will become very hot which can cause burns.
Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door

Setting Convection Bake
Convection functions use a fan to circulate the oven's heat
uniformly and continuously around the oven (Figure 17). This
improved heat distribution allows for fast, even baking and
browning results. It also gives better baking results when using
two oven racks at the same time. Heated air flows around the
food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and
pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard pan
will bake faster and more evenly with the convection feature.
Multiple rack baking may slightly increase bake time for some
foods, but the overall result is time saved.
Convection Bake may be set for any oven temperature between
170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Benefits of Convection Bake:
• Superior multiple oven rack performance
• Foods bake more evenly
• Foods can bake up to 25 to 30% faster.
Important note:
The convection bake feature is best used when the recipe
instructions have been written especially for convection baking.
If the recipe instructions are for baking and you wish to use
convection baking, follow the "Setting Convection Convert"
instructions on page 17. Convection convert will automatically
adjust the oven temperature so that convection baking will
provide the best possible results.
To set Conv Bake with a default oven set temperature of 350°F
(177°C):
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking the oven interior, oven racks, and
cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.
Do not bake foods directly on the oven bottom.
To avoid damaging the oven interior and surfaces, always bake
foods in the oven using bakeware positioned on an oven rack.
1. Press Upper Oven or Lower Oven.

Convection Baking/Convection Convert Tips:
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits, and breads.
• When using any single rack, position the rack so that the
food is in the center of the oven.
Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of foods. It
may be necessary to reduce the oven temperature or cook
time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark
bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is
recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
• When using convection, use bakeware with low sides. This
allows the air to circulate around the food evenly.
Because most food items will cook faster and more evenly
with the convection feature, it is advisable to reduce recipe's
recommended temperature by 25° for best results. Follow
the recipe's instructions using the minimum recommended
cook time.
• When using convection bake, cook time reductions may
vary depending on the amount and type of food being
cooked.
• For batter and dough-based baked goods such as cakes,
pastries, and breads, use the convection bake function for
best results. Place the pans as shown in Figure 18.
• Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase bake
time.
• Glass bakeware may require reduced temperatures.
• When using Convec Bake, cook time reductions may vary
depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.
For best results when baking cakes or cookies using two
oven racks, place racks in positions 1 and 4 (Figure 19) and
place pans as shown in Figure 18. Use flat rack in position 4
and glide rack in position 1.
• When baking using two oven racks, position bakeware as
shown in Figure 18. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space
between bakeware for proper air circulation.
Setting Convection Convert
Pressing Conv Convert automatically converts the cooking
temperature entered for any standard baking recipe to the
lower temperature required for convection baking.
When convection convert is used with a timed convection bake
setting of 20 minutes or more, the convection convert function
will display a CF message as a reminder to check food when the
bake time is 75% complete (Figure 20). At this time the oven
control will sound 1 long beep at regular intervals until the set
cook time has finished.
Important note:
• Convection convert may only be used with the convection
bake function and with a minimum of 20 minutes cook time.
The convection fan will begin rotating once convection
bake, convection roast, or convection convert has been acti-
vated. If the oven door is opened when any convection
function is active, the convection fan will stop rotating until
the oven door is closed.
Figure 20: Check Food reminder shown in display.
To program oven for Convection Convert with oven default

Setting Convection Roast
The convection roast function combines a cook cycle with the
convection fan to roast meats and poultry. Meats cooked using
the convection roast function will be juicier and poultry will be
crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside.
Convection roast may be set for any oven temperature between
170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Suggestions for Convection Roast:
Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using
Convection roast. Since convection roast cooks food faster,
reduce the cook time by 25°/'0 from the recommended cook
time of your recipe. If necessary, increase cooking time until
the desired doneness is obtained.
• The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid
will help prevent splatters. The roasting rack will hold the
meat. Use the offset rack on rack position 1.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting as this will prevent
the meat from browning properly.

Setting Slow Cook
The Slow Cook feature cooks foods more slowly and at lower
oven temperatures for longer periods of time. Slow Cook is ideal
for roasting beef, pork and poultry. Slow cooking meats may
result in the exterior of meats becoming dark but will not burn
the outside as it seals in the meat's juices. Two (2) Slow Cook
settings are available, high (Hi) or low (Lo). The high setting is
best for cooking foods between 4 and 5 hours. The low setting is
best for cooking foods up to 9 hours or longer.
Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for
more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result
in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as
milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refriger-
ator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven
for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be
removed promptly when finished cooking.
Some tips for best results when using Slow Cook:
Completely thaw all frozen foods before cooking.
When using a single oven rack, place in oven rack position
2 or 3. Position racks to accommodate the size of various
bakeware when cooking multiple food items.
• Do not open the oven door often or leave the door open
when checking foods. If the oven heat escapes often, the
Slow Cook time may need to be extended.
• Cover to keep foods moist or use a loose or vented type
cover to allow foods to turn crisp or brown.
Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can occur. Cook
times will vary depending on the weight, fat content, bone,
and the shape of the roast. Preheating the oven will not be
necessary when using the Slow Cook feature.
• Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last hour of
cooking.
Important note:
Slow Cook may be used with Cook Time. The maximum cook
time for Slow Cook function is 11 hours and 59 minutes. If a

The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, "Rare fresh beef is popular,
but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F (60°C)
means some food poisoning organisms may survive." (Source:
Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.)
The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F
(63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef medium 160°F,
well done 170°F
