Bake Mode

Bake is used to prepare foods such as pastries, breads and casseroles.

The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 170 ℉ (80 ℃) to 550 ℉ (285 ℃). The default temperature is 350 ℉ (175 ℃).

Press Bake.
Press the numbers to enter the desired temperature.
If desired, press Cook Time to set the cook time or Start Time to set the delayed start time. Press the numbers to set the time settings.
Press START. The oven starts to preheat.
If the cook time is set, the remaining time appears in the display. If a delayed start time is set, the start time appears in the display.
A chime sounds once preheating is complete.
A chime sounds at the end of the set cook time and a notification appears in the display. Open the oven door and remove the food.

Note

Press Lower CLEAR / OFF.

Note

It is normal for the convection fan to operate periodically throughout a normal bake cycle in the oven. This is to ensure even baking results.

For best results, food should be placed on a single rack with at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space between the pans and oven walls.
Baking time and temperature will vary depending on the characteristics, 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.
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. 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.
