PERFORMANCE RECOMMENDATIONS

Preheat the oven thoroughly (approx.. 20 minutes) before use..

As a general rule, the temperature should be reduced 25° to 50°F from that used in a standard/conventional oven.. Cooking time may also be shorter.. Close monitoring of the first batch of each product prepared is recommended..

Cooking times and temperatures will vary depending upon such factors load size, mixture of products, moisture level, density and initial temperature of products..

Keep a record of the times, temperature and load sizes you establish for various products.. This information will be useful for succeeding loads..

When practical, start cooking the lowest temperature product first and gradually work up to the higher temperatures..

If you find that your previous temperature setting is more than 10° higher than needed for succeeding loads, press the “COOL DOWN” switch and open the doors slightly to reach the desired cooking temperature..

When loading the oven, work as quickly as possible to prevent loss of heat..

The oven will continue to heat after the timer has expired.. Product should be removed from the oven as soon as possible to avoid overcooking..

Center pans on racks and load each shelf evenly to allow for proper air/moisture circulation within the oven cavity..

When baking, weigh or measure the product in each pan to promote even cooking..

When cooking with six pans, use rack positions 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12, starting from the top..

Do not overload the oven.. Six pans are suggested for most items, i..e..: cakes, cookies, rolls, etc.. However, the maximum (13 pans) may be use for fish sticks, chicken nuggets, and hamburgers.. Cooking times may have to be adjusted..

Muffin pans should be placed in the oven back to front or with the short side of the pans facing the front to promote even baking..

Use pan extenders or two-inch deep 18” x 26” pans for batter type products which weigh more than eight pounds..

Never place anything directly on the bottom of the oven cavity.. This will obstruct airflow and drainage, causing uneven results..

“Flex Time,” a patented feature of the programmable control, monitors the cooking progress of the oven’s contents and may adjust the cook time longer or shorter to produce the best result..

About Moisture Presets

The Bread setting injects moisture only during the first 6 cycles of the baking period.. Other settings inject moisture throughout the cook time..

Your actual recipe or desired results may require more or less moisture than the recommended presets apply..

Other than Bread, the Meat setting provides the least amount of moisture overall.. The Poultry preset injects more than Meat, with the Fish setting applying the highest total amount of moisture..

For best results, you may want to experiment with the settings.. The presets also provide a useful starting point when experimenting to find desired moisture settings for other products..
