may become hot.
I
Speed Heat TM Burner Feature
The right front burner is designed to give ultra-power when fully on.
It can be used to rapidly bring liquid to a boil and to cook large
quantities of food.
Flex-Choice TM Burner Feature

locating feet on the bottom of the griddle will engage the grate
tines to keep the griddle from sliding.
2. Before each use, brush on a thin layer of cooking oil to keep
food from sticking. Cooking sprays may leave a sticky residue
on the griddle that is hard to remove.
3. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes. Preheating the griddle slowly
will ensure even heat distribution and will avoid warping the
griddle.
4. For preheating and cooking, set the front burner to the lowest
heat setting and the rear burner to medium-high heat for best
performance.
NOTE: The griddle may also be used on the left side grate. For

Multiple Rack Cooking
2-rack: Use rack positions 2 and 5 for regular or convection baking.
3-rack (convection only): Use rack positions 2, 4 and 6.
Baking Cakes on 2 Racks
For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks, use racks 2 and 5.
For best results when convection baking cakes on 2 racks, use
racks 2 and 5. Place the cakes on the racks as shown.
A. Ends of rack in position 3
B. Food in position 2
IMPORTANT: These rack positions are for flat racks. If a Max
Capacity Oven Rack is used, the rack position must be adjusted as
shown in the previous figure.
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven
vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning
results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or
burn near the oven vent.

Precision Cooking TM System - Precise Bake
The Precise Bake system electronically regulates the oven heat
levels during preheat and bake to maintain a precise temperature
range for optimal cooking results. The bake burner cycles on and
off in intervals. On convection range models, the fan may run while
preheating and may be cycled on and off for short intervals during
preheating to provide the best results. This feature is automatically
activated when the oven is in use.
The convection fan will not be on during the first 5 minutes of the
cycle.
Before baking and roasting, position racks according to
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When roasting, it is not
necessary to wait for the oven preheat cycle to end before putting
food in unless it is recommended in the recipe.

Preheating
When Start is pressed, the oven will begin preheating. Once 100°F
(38°C) is reached, the display temperature will increase as the
actual temperature of the oven increases. When the preheat
temperature is reached, a tone will sound, and the selected
temperature will appear on the display. The time necessary to
preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) is approximately 10 to
15 minutes, depending on the model.
Power Preheat
Power Preheat can be used to shorten the preheating time. Only
one standard flat rack should be in the oven during Power Preheat.
Extra racks should be removed prior to starting Power Preheat.
Press POWER PREHEAT and follow the oven control prompts, or, if
preheating has already started, simply press POWER PREHEAT.
The preheating cycle should be completed before placing food in
the oven and should be used only for one-rack baking. When the
power preheat cycle is complete, the oven starts a normal Bake
cycle.
When broiling, preheat the oven for 5 minutes before putting food
in unless recommended otherwise in the recipe. Position food on
grid in a broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack.
IMPORTANT: Close the door to ensure proper broiling
temperature.
Changing the temperature when Custom Broiling allows more
precise control when cooking. The lower the broil setting, the
slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of
meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broil settings. Use
racks 6 or 7 for broiling. Refer to the "Positioning Racks and
Bakeware" section for more information.
For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to
drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
Ifyou would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered.
Please refer to the "Accessories" section for more information.
NOTE: Odors and smoke are normal the first few times the oven is
used or if the oven is heavily soiled.

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding
crustier breads.
IMPORTANT: With convection cooking, most foods can be cooked
at a lower temperature or at a shorter time. This range
automatically reduces the set oven temperature by 25°F (15°C) for
convection cooking.
During convection cooking, the bake and broil burners and
convection element cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the
oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.
NOTE: The convection fan will turn on approximately 5 minutes
into any convection cycle.
If the oven door is opened during convection cooking, the fan will
turn off immediately. It will come back on when the oven door is
closed.
NOTE: The oven door must be closed for convection broiling.
EvenAir TM True Convection
When convection baking, broiling or roasting, enter your normal
baking temperature. The control will automatically reduce the set
oven temperature by 25°F (15°C).
