Hello JOJO - We appreciate your interest in the JKD5000SNSS and we are happy to help! During Preheat, the Bake and Broil elements both come on to quickly heat the oven. During the bake cycle you can see that the bake element is working because of the bright orange glow it gives off. The broil element may cycle on to provide heat from the top for better cooking results. The broil element wattage is less (on most models) during Baking, which means the Broil element will not necessarily glow orange, even when it is on. We hope this helps. Thanks for checking! Olga
