TWO ELEMENT BAKING/
CONVECTION BAKING / CONVECTION COOKING
Preheating
Preheating the oven is not necessary when using temperatures below 250 F. For best results, it is extremely important that you preheat the oven when baking cakes and other items that have critical baking temperatures. After the temperature control has been set, the Oven Indicator light goes out when the oven reaches that temperature. Preheating takes no longer than 10
Two Element Baking
Conventional baking/roasting is particularly suitable for dishes which require a high temperature. Many cookbooks contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional manner. This bake setting is only recommended for single rack baking.
Convection Baking (upper oven only)
Convection baking is the process of cooking food with a flow of heated air circulating throughout the oven cavity. The even circulation of this air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens. This feature can make a significant difference in foods prepared in the oven. A major benefit of convection baking is the ability to prepare food in quantity. The uniform air circulation makes this possible . . . a feature not possible in a standard oven. With this heating system, the air is distributed evenly throughout the oven by the convection fan. The heat therefore reaches the food to be baked or roasted more quickly. With this heating method, foods can be baked and roasted at the same time with minimal taste transfer, even when different dishes are involved, such as cakes, fish or meat. The hot air system is especially economical when thawing frozen food.
TRUCONVECtm (upper oven only)
In TruConvectm cooking, the rear element only operates at full power. There is no direct heat from the bottom or top elements. The heated air is circulated by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Breads, cookies, and other baked goods come out evenly textured with golden crusts. No special bakeware is required.
Rack Positions
Each oven is equipped with three
Position 6
Position 5
Position 4
Position 3
Position 2
Position 1
To Bake:
1.Arrange the oven racks in the desired positions BEFORE heating the oven. If cooking on two racks at the same time, use rack positions 2 and 4 or positions 3 and 5.
2.Turn the Oven Function selector to desired function. Cooking starts immediately and stops when the Oven Function selector is turned to OFF.
3.Set the Temperature Control to the desired temperature.
4.Place the food in the oven after the Oven Indicator light goes out.
