Bake
in
Your Lower Oven
See Baking Guide.
When set to bake, the oven cooks
by dry heat. Both bake and broil
units are energized (the broil
unit at reduced wattage) until
the oven temperature you select
(from 150 to
550°F.)
is reached.
The temperature control then
turns the oven heating units off
and on to maintain the desired
oven temperature. In a quiet
kitchen, you may hear a slight
“click” sound during cooking as the
heating units are turned off and on.
The oven temperature display
will
show
10O°F.
if the oven
temperature is less than or equal
to
100°F.
This is normal.
Once the desired oven temperature
is reached, the oven signals.
Most foods cook satisfactorily
without preheating the oven. If
preheating is required, put your
food in the oven promptly when
the oven signals that the desired
temperature has been reached.
When cooking food for the first
time, use the time given in your
recipe as a guide.
Don’t open the oven door to check
on foods any more often than
necessary—doing so could cause
undesirable baking results. Check
when minimum time shown on
recipe is up. Then cook food
longer, if necessary.
Note: Cooking controls will not
work after automatic oven cleaning
until the oven has cooled and
“LOCKED” no longer appears on
the display.

Step 4:
Touch START pad to begin
baking. Display shows “BAKE,”
“TEMP,” the oven set temperature
and actual oven temperature as the
oven heats. When set temperature
has been reached, the control beeps
six times and
“PrE7’
flashes in the
display. The display then shows
the set temperature continuously.
Step 5: Center food on the shelf.
Make sure at least 1 inch of space
is left between the cooking
container and the oven wall for
proper heat circulation. Close the
oven door.
Step 6: If you wish, you may set
the Timer to the desired cooking
time as indicated in your recipe
(see How to Set the Timer section).
When the set time is up, the
control signals and then beeps
every 60 seconds, until the TIMER
ON/OFF pad is touched.
Note: The Timer has no effect on
the Bake mode, and it does not
turn the oven off when time is up.
Step 7: When baking is done,
touch
CLEAWOFF pad to turn the
oven off. Be sure foods are done
before taking them out of the oven.
Note: You can change the bake
temperature while baking by first
touching the
BA~
pad, then the
appropriate number pads.
If the oven has already preheated,
then the control will not beep when
the new oven temperature is
reached. The oven temperature
display will not keep track of the
actual oven temperature; it will
immediately show the new
temperature.
If the new temperature is less than
the actual oven temperature, and
the Preheat Alarm has not already
sounded, the control will beep, and
“PrE”
will flash in the time-of-day
display. The oven temperature
display will not keep track of the
oven temperature; it will
immediately display the new
temperature.
