Euro-Pro TO292H Roasting In Your Oven, Before Using Your Convection Oven with Burners, Meat

Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.

Before Using Your Convection Oven with Burners

1.Read all of the instructions included in this manual.

2.Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the Operation Control Knob is in the “OFF” position.

3.Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.

4.Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in oven. Plug oven into outlet and you are ready to use your new Convection Oven with Burners.

5.After re-assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the highest temperature (450° F.) on the Toast Function for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping. This will also remove all traces of odor initially present.

6.We recommend that you also turn the burners on for about 10 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping.

Please Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15 minutes). This is normal and harmless. It is due to burning of the protective substance applied to the heating elements in the factory.

Convection Cooking

Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the regular features (broil, bake and toast). Convection cooking provides faster cooking in many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan gently circulates air to every area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing in moisture and flavor. It produces more even temperature all around the food by air movement, so that food cooks/bakes/broils evenly versus the normal ovens hot and cold spots. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler. With the Convection Oven you will see about a 25 to 30% decrease in cooking temperature and a 20 to 25% decrease in cooking time when compared to a conventional oven.

Using Your Convection Oven with Burners

Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories prior to first use:

•Temperature Control - Choose the desired temperature from 150° to 450° F for baking, broiling, toasting or grilling.

Roasting In Your Oven

Roast your favorite cut of meat to perfection. The oven can cook up to an 6-lb. chicken or turkey and up to a 4-lb. roast. A guide has been provided to assist you with roasting times. However, we suggest that you periodically check the cooking progress with a meat thermometer. For best results we recommend that you preheat the oven for 15 minutes on 450°. We do not recommend the use of oven roasting bags or glass containers in the oven. Never use plastic cardboard, paper or anything similar in the oven.

Operation

•Place the wire rack in the oven at the lowest position.

•Place food to be cooked in any roasting pan. If you wish to use the broil pan, then you do not need to insert the wire rack because the broil pan supports itself on the oven support guides.

•Set the Temperature Control Knob to the desired temperature.

•Turn the Function Control Knob to Convection Baking.

•Set the Operation Control to the “Oven On” position.

•Always use oven mitts to help you slide the roast in and out of the oven is wish to check on the cooking progress.

•When cooking is complete, turn the Operation Control Knob to the “Off” position.
