ToastThis mode is ideal for browning slices of bread, bagels, English muffins, and frozen waffiles, Each slice will be browned evernly no both sides without the need for the food.
BroilThis mode is ideal for quickly searing meats (e.g. steaks or Fish), crisping vegetables, top surface of foods (e.g. casseroles).
RoastThis mode is ideal for cooking foods that are generally solid before the cooking process, including a wide variety of meats and vegetables. Foods will be tender and moist on the inside, while developing a crispy texture on the exterior.
ProofThis mode is ideal for preparing yeast bread and other baked goods where the dough is allowed to rest and rise before baking. The low temperature heat will facilitate fermentation.
Keep WarmThis mode is useful for keeping freshly cooked meals warm while waiting for guests or preparing the rest of the meal.

Recommended Oven Rack Positions by Cooking Mode
Air Fry Cooking Guidelines
Air Fry is a special, no-preheat cooking mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. This cooking mode doesn’t require oil but spraying a light coating on food prior to cooking can enhance exterior crispiness and browning.
It is generally recommended to use the provided air fry basket in the middle rack position for air frying. Foods may cook faster than expected if the oven is already hot when food is placed in the oven. If foods are browning or drying out too quickly, try using the lower rack position or setting a lower oven temperature. basket may negatively impact food texture and prolong cook times.
Care and Cleaning
- Be sure the oven is turned off, unplugged, and cool before beginning cleaning.
- Clean the glass door with a sponge, soft cloth, or nylon pad and sudsy water. Do not use a spray cleaner.
- Remove slide rack and bake pan; wash in soapy water To remove stubborn spots, use a polyester or nylon pad.
- Remove crumb tray using the handle and dispose of crumbs. Wipe tray with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly before placing back into the oven.
- Wipe the outside of the oven with a damp cloth or sponge. Dry thoroughly.
