Operating the Oven

Starting Your Oven

1.Adjust the racks to the appropriate level.

2.Determine the best cooking mode for the type of food to be cooked. Select from the following:

• CONVECTION BAKE - A combination

of the convection fan and a bottom heat source. Good for single rack items in a

deep pan.

• CONVECTION BROIL - A combina- tion of the convection fan and a top heat source. Good for items that do not need to be flipped, such as thinner cuts of meat, fish and garlic bread.

• PURE CONVECTION™ - Uses convection cooking only for even heat. Use for baked goods and multiple rack cooking.

•BAKE - Cooks with a bottom heat source only. Commonly used for basic recipes.

•BROIL - Cooks using a top heat source alone. Use for grilling smaller cuts of meat or toasting bread.

• CONVECTION ROAST - Combines top and bottom heat sources with the convection fan. Best for rib roasts, turkeys, chickens, etc.

See pages 13 to 15 for detailed descriptions of the various cooking modes.

The broil modes will not work when the meat probe is connected.

3.Press the key for the desired cooking mode. The preset (jump-in) temperature for that mode will appear on the display along with the symbol(s) for the selected cooking mode (see above).

4.To cook at the preset temperature, press START. To cook at a different temperature enter it (for example 4-2-5) on the number keypad, then press START.

You can enter any temperature between 100°F and 555°F. The suggested broil temperature is 555°F.

5.If you are using Pure Convection or one of the bake or roast modes, “PRE-”for preheating, along with the current oven temperature will appear on the display until the oven reaches the set temperature. Once the oven reaches the set temperature (usually in 10 minutes), it will beep and “PRE-”will disappear. Carefully place your food in the oven. Excessive browning will occur if you put the food in too soon.
