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 recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform
differently than the oven it is replacing.
Bake
The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode
uses heat primarily from the lower element but also from
the upper element to cook food. When preparing baked
goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries always
preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations
forfoodplacement.Ifnoguidelinesareprovidedcenter
food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad,
enter a temperature, and then press Start.
Proof
Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and
proofing) bread doughs. Press the Proof pad and then
press Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out.
Breadwillrisemorerapidlythanatroomtemperature.
Notethatfordoublewallovens,proofcannotberun
when running a clean mode in the other oven.
Warm
Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to
3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then
press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and
do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is
notrequired.Donotusewarmtoheatcoldfoodother
thancrispingcrackers,chipsordrycereal.Itisalso
recommended that food not be kept warm for more
than 2 hours.
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. For best performance center food below the
broil heating element. Broiling on rack position 6 is
not recommended.
Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust
rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the
food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a
seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker
foods and foods that need to be cooked through should
be broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or
byusingBroilLo.
Broil Hi
TheBroilHimodeusesintenseheatfromtheupper
elementtosearfoods.UseBroilHiforthinnercutsof
meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior.
To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then
press Start.Itisnotnecessarytopreheatwhenusing
this mode.
Broil Lo

and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way
