J BAKE
J
BAKE is used to prepare foods such as pastries, breads
and casseroles. The oven can be programmed to
bake at any temperature from 170°F (77°C) to 550°F
(288°C). The default temperature is 350°F (177°C).
SETTING THE BAKE FUNCTION
(example, 375°F):
Press BAKE.
1
Set the oven temperature using the number buttons:
2
press 3, 7 and 5.
Press START. The oven will start to preheat.
3
As the oven preheats, the temperature is displayed
and rises in 5-degree increments. Once the oven
reaches the set temperature, a tone will sound and
the oven light will flash on and off.
When cooking is complete, press STOP.

Remove food from the oven.

NOTE: It is normal for the convection fan to operate
periodically throughout a normal bake cycle in the
lower oven. This is to ensure even baking results.
BAKING TIPS
• Baking time and temperature will vary depending on
the ingredients, size, and shape of the baking pan
used.
• Check for food doneness at the minimum recipe time.
• Use metal bakeware (with or without a nonstick finish),
heatproof glass-ceramic, ceramic or other bakeware
recommended for oven use.
• Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook food
faster with more browning. Insulated bakeware will
slightly lengthen the cooking time for most foods.
NOTE: The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom
from excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on
the rack below the rack you are cooking on. (Line the
cookie sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.)
This is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or
other foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or
other foods that are highly acidic may cause pitting and
damage to the porcelain-enamel surface and should be
wiped up immediately.
J CONVECTION BAKE
J
The convection system uses a fan to circulate the heat
evenly within the oven. Improved heat distribution allows
for even cooking and excellent results while cooking
with single or multiple racks.
SETTING THE CONVECTION BAKE FUNCTION
(example, 375°F):
Press CONV. BAKE. The display will flash Conv

Bake.

Set the oven temperature using the number buttons:

press 3, 7 and 5.
Press START. The display will show CONV. BAKE

and the oven temperature starting at 100°F.
As the oven preheats, the display will show
increasing temperatures in 5-degree increments.
Once the oven reaches the set adjusted
temperature, a tone will sound and the oven light
will flash on and off. The display will show the auto
converted oven temperature 350°F , CONV. BAKE
and the fan icon.
When cooking has finished or to cancel, press STOP.

NOTE: The oven fan will run while convection baking.
The fan will stop when the door is open, but the heat
will not turn off. In some cases, the fan may shut off
during a convection bake cycle.
TIPS FOR CONVECTION BAKING
• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no
sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate
around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark
finish will cook faster.
• When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place
oven rack in position C. If cooking on multiple racks,
place the oven racks in positions B and D (for 2 racks).
• Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook
times for some foods.
• Cakes, cookies and muffins will have better results
when using multiple racks.
