Conventional/Convection Roasting Tips Always use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven. The hot air must be allowed to circulate around the item being roasted. Do not cover what is being roasted. Convection roasting seals in juices quickly for a moist, tender product.

The method preferred by professional cooks to sear in the nutrition, flavors, and juices of meat, poultry, and fish is now possible in the home. The infrared broiler cooks up to 50% faster than other methods.

Sealed Surface Burners (If applicable) Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a spill-over, follow these steps: 1. Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level. 2.

Griddle/Simmer Plate 1. After using the griddle, always remove the drip pan located below it by pulling the drip pan toward you. The drip pan needs to be cleaned after each use of the griddle. Cooked-off grease will drain from the griddle through the drain tube and accumulate in the drip pan.
Stainless Steel Parts All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner when soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, abrasive cleaners, or powders.
Before starting the Self-Clean cycle: 1. Remove the oven racks, rack supports, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can discolor, warp, and damage these items. Do not use foil or liners in the oven. During the Self-Clean cycle, foil can burn or melt and damage the oven surface.
