Quick Bake
(some models)
Benefits of the Quick Bake feature
— Foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and
energy.
— Multiple rack baking.
— No special pans or bakeware needed.
How Quick Bake works
Quick Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat
uniformly and continuously around the oven. This
improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking
and browning results. It also gives better baking results
when using two racks at the same time.
Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing
in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with Quick Bake
are juicer. Poultry is crisp on the outside while staying
tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry brown
more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be
cooked faster and more evenly with Quick Bake.
Suggestions for Quick Bake
When using Quick Bake
1. For optimum cooking results it is recommended to
preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,
biscuits and breads.
2. Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe's
recommended oven temperature. Follow the
remainder of the recipe's instructions using the
minimum recommended cook time.
3. When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in
positions 3 & 5 for best results (See Fig. 1).
When Roasting
1. Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using
Roasting.
2. Since Roasting cooks food faster, reduce the cook
time by 25% from the recommended cook time of
your recipe. Check the food at this time. If necessary,
increase cook time until the desired doneness is
obtained.
3. Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will keep
the air from circulating around the food.
Setting Quick Bake
The oven may be programmed to Quick Bake at any
temperature from 300°F to 550°F (147°C to 287°C). The
factory preset Quick Bake temperature is 350°F (177°C).
