Using the Ovens

Stainless Steel Range

Convection cookware

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Use the pan size recommended in the recipe.

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

•Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.

•Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F can also be used.

1If the meat has fat or gristle around the

edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2″ apart. If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about 1/8″ thick.

3Position a shelf on the recommended shelf position as suggested in the Broiling Guide.

4Close door. Your unit has been designed to broil with the door closed.

5Push in the BROIL selector button on the side of the control panel above the oven you wish to use.

NOTE: A cooling fan will be activated when the BROIL selector button is pushed. This cooling fan cools the oven controls when broiling.

6 Turn the control knob below the selector button to BROIL. The broiler does not need to be preheated for most broiling. However,

Open door broiling is not permitted due to excessive control knob temperature.

meat or fish may require a short preheating period of 2 to 3 minutes to allow the food surface to brown in the same time the food takes to be cooked throughout.

Turn the food only once during broiling. Time the foods for the first side according to the Broiling Guide.

7When broiling is finished, push in the OFF selector button.
