In addition, this feature may be used to add texture to fried items such as french fries or breaded chicken. Gold-n-Brown can be used in any cooking mode and can be programmed into a cooking procedure.

The oven will engage the browning feature in the cooking mode set by the operator. Gold-N-Brown can be used in steam mode to reduce moisture.

Cool down feature

The cool-down feature provides the operator with the ability to lower the temperature of the oven compartment at an accelerated pace. This function is useful when it is necessary to immediately change from a high temperature cooking function to a lower temperature function or to the steam program. This function is also useful to help cool the oven compartment in preparation for cleaning.

CHEF OPERATING TIP

When using the cool-down feature in preparation for cleaning, it is important to remember that the temperature in the display indicates the air temperature inside the oven compartment and not the interior walls of the oven. Always allow the oven walls to cool to a minimum of 140°F (60°C) before spraying the compartment with oven cleaner.
