Upper Oven Heating Modes

The following illustrations give an overview of the heating activity with each mode setting. The arrows represent the heat source for specific cooking modes.

COOKSMART® – COOKSMART combines pre- programmed high-speed convection heat (i.e., JetDirect Convection) and microwave energy to cook food in about one-fourth the conventional cooking time. COOKSMART modes can be used to cook a variety of foods, such as small or low-profile roasts and meats, casseroles, breads and desserts, vegetables and frozen dinners. See Pages 13-14 for operation.

JETDIRECT® CONVECTION – JETDIRECT

Convection cooks food by using high-speed convection heat. The speed is enhanced using high velocity blowers. The heat flows through the many jets located above and below the food. Food is cooked in approximately 2/3 the conventional cooking time when using JETDIRECT Convection. This mode is not an automatic or preprogrammed mode.

JETDIRECT mode can be used for cooking the following foods:

•Larger roasts and larger poultry items, resulting in a crispier exterior that seals in the interior juices.

•Baked items such as popovers, quick breads,
