CONVECTION BAKE

Heat is radiated from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. It provides more even heat distribution throughout the oven cavity for all uses. Multiple rack use is possible for the largest baking job. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced - searing meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage.

INFRARED CONVECTION BROIL Exactly the same as regular broiling with the additional benefit of air circulation by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The cool air is quickly replaced-improving the already high performance of the infrared broil burner.

CONVECTION DEHYDRATE

With the temperature control on 175oF, warm air is radiated from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Over a period of time, the water is removed from the food by evaporation. Removal of water inhibits growth of microorganisms and retards the activity of enzymes. It is important to remember that dehydration does not improve the quality , so only fresh, top-quality foods should be used.

CONVECTION DEFROST

With temperature control off, air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid sickness and food waste, do not allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.

Lighting the Burners

Surface Burners-Automatic Reignition

To light the surface burners, turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any position. This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch. Burners will ignite at any “on” position with the automatic reignition system. If the flame goes out for any reason, the burners will automatically reignite if the gas is still flowing. When gas is permitted to flow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn off the control and check that the unit is plugged in and that the fuse or circuit breaker is not blown or tripped.

Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the burner to be able to light. When the burner lights, turn the burner control to any position to adjust the flame size.

Setting the proper height for the desired cooking process and selected utensil will result in superior cooking performance, while also saving time and energy.
