Important Safety Instructions • Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawer of this appliance can result in serious injuries and may also cause damage to the appliance. Do not allow children to climb or play around the appliance. The weight of a child on an open door may cause the appliance to tip, resulting in serious burns or other injury. An open drawer, when hot, may cause burns. - Page 5 Important Safety Instructions IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR COOKTOP • Use proper flame size—Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency. • Do not use stove top grills on the burner grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above...

Recommended broiling times Use the broiling table -fig. - Page 24 Setting Oven Controls About convection bake Convection bake is part of the Perfect-Convect³™ system. Convection bake uses a fan to circulate the oven heat evenly and continuously. The improved heat distribution allows for even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. The conv bake feature should ONLY be used when your recipe instructions have been written for use with convection baking.
-
Page 25: Using Convection Convert
Using convection convert The conv convert option allows you to convert any normal baking recipe using the convection bake feature.

Benefits of conv bake using conv convert option: • Superior multiple oven rack performance. • Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy. -
Page 26: Convection Roast
Setting Oven Controls About convection roast How convection roast works Convection roast is part of the Perfect-Convect³™ system. Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to rapidly roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with this feature are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside. In addition, there is no need to reduce the oven temperature when using convection roast. -
Page 27: Convection Roast
Roasting recommendations Roasting rack instructions When preparing meats for convection roasting, you may use the broiler pan, insert and the roasting rack supplied with your appliance. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert will help prevent grease splatters. The roasting rack fits on top of the insert allowing the heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase browning on the underside. -
Page 28: Probe
Setting Oven Controls About the probe function Checking the internal temperature of your food is the most effective way of insuring that your food has been properly cooked. When cooking meat such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the probe to check the internal temperature without any guesswork. -

Page 33: Defrost
About defrost Use the defrost feature to thaw small portions of delicate items such as cream cakes, frozen cream pies and cheesecake at room temperature.

Page 34: Dehydrate
Setting Oven Controls Setting dehydrate (continued) For best results • Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140°F. Dry herbs at 100°F. • Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air. • Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration. • Tightly woven cooling racks can be used to allow the air to circulate around the food; or use drying racks to allow the air to circulate around the food (this type of oven rack is not supplied with this appliance). - Page 35 About my favorite You may store up to 3 of your most frequently used heat settings and cooking times, for the upper oven.
