Baking and Roasting
ACCUBAKE® DUO SYSTEM® Temperature Management (on some models)
The ACCUBAKE® DUO SYSTEM® temperature management technology uses two sensors to maintain even temperatures. The two temperature sensors independently control the bake and broil burners for optimal cooking results. The bake and broil cycle on and off in intervals. This feature is automatically activated when the oven is in use. Before baking and roasting, position racks according to the �Positioning Racks and Bakeware� section. When roasting, it is not necessary to wait for the oven preheat conditioning time to end before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.

May need to reduce baking temperatures 25°F (15°C). Use suggested baking time. For pies, breads and casseroles, use temperature recommended in recipe. Place rack in center of oven. Place in the bottom third of oven. May need to increase baking time.

Follow manufacturer�s instructions. May need to reduce baking temperatures 25°F (15°C).

1. Press BAKE. 2. Press TEMP or TEMP/TIME �up� or �down� arrow pad to set a temperature other than 350°F (175°C) in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The bake range can be set between 170°F and 500°F (75°C and 260°C). When the oven temperature is greater than 170°F (77°C), no preheat conditioning time will be shown in the display. The preheat conditioning time will not change if the temperature is reset before the countdown time ends. 3. Press START or START/ENTER. The temperature can be changed after this step. The start pad does not need to be pressed again. If baking and roasting while the minute timer is counting down, the set temperature can be seen for 5 seconds by pressing BAKE. 4. Press CANCEL or OFF/CANCEL when finished.

Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat, poultry and fish. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. s Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
s

Preheating
After the start pad is pressed, the oven will enter a timed preheat conditioning. �PrE� (on some models) and the countdown time will appear on the display. When the preheat conditioning time ends, a tone will sound and the selected temperature will appear on the display. Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven temperature to differ due to the cycling of the burners. Waiting an additional 10 minutes, after the preheat conditioning time ends, to put food in the oven is suggested when baking foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, baking soda and eggs.

After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat ½" (1.3 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops, cook the meat or poultry longer. Check all meat, poultry and fish in 2 or 3 different places.

Choice Bake® Function
(on some models)
The CHOICE BAKE function minimizes the top heat during oven cooking. It is ideal for baking pies, casseroles and breads, and for roasting foods that require longer and slower cook times such as poultry and roasts. Similar to the baking and roasting function, the bake and broil burners cycle on and off at intervals during the CHOICE BAKE® cycle. However, the cycle duration for the broil burner is much shorter during the CHOICE BAKE® cycle. This reduces top browning of foods and gives you more customized control of your baking results.

A. Oven vent

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.
