Meat Thermometer

Not all models have a temperature probe. On models without a
temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine
whether meat, poultry and fish are cooked to the desired degree
of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should
be used to determine doneness.

Preheating and Oven Temperature

Preheating
When beginning a Bake or Convect Bake cycle or Convect Roast
cycle the oven begins preheating after Start is touched. The oven
will take approximately 12 to 17 minutes to reach 350°F (177°C)
with all of the oven racks provided with your oven inside the oven
cavity. Higher temperatures will take longer to preheat. The
preheat cycle rapidly increases the oven temperature. The actual
oven temperature will go above your set temperature to offset the
heat lost when your oven door is opened to insert food. This
ensures that when you place your food in the oven, the oven will
begin at the proper temperature. Insert your food when the
preheat tone sounds. Do not open the door during preheat until
the tone sounds.
Oven Temperature
While in use, the oven elements will cycle on and off as needed to
maintain a consistent temperature. They may run slightly hot or
cool at any point in time due to this cycling. Opening the oven door
while in use will release the hot air and cool the oven which could
impact the cooking time and performance. It is recommended to
use the oven light to monitor cooking progress.
