PROPER UTENSILS
The use of proper utensils can enhance oven operation. Medium- and lightweight pans are recommended since it is more economical to bake with lighter pans.
Meats should be roasted in shallow pans deep enough to hold all juices and allow free air circulation.
CONSERVING ENERGY
•Turn off unused equipment.
•Adjust menu patterns and cooking/baking schedules for optimum equipment use.
•Preheat only to required cooking temperature for specific food - not higher.
•Do not open the oven door unless absolutely necessary. Use the window to observe cooking progress.
•Keep area around the oven door clean and free of food particles.
•Any obstruction that prevents the door from closing completely will adversely affect oven efficiency.
OPERATING HINTS
When using the convection oven for the first time with a particular food, check the degree of doneness periodically before the suggested time has elapsed, to make sure the desired doneness is achieved.
Record your temperature and time settings for various products. The convection oven can provide consistent, repeatable results.
The convection oven is faster than conventional
