Page 9: Oven Functions And Settings
Oven Functions and Settings BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake) Use this setting for baking, roasting, and casseroles. CONVECTION BAKE Use this setting to bake and roast foods at the same time with minimal taste transfer.

Page 10: Cooking Vessels
Surface Operation Surface Cooking Tips (cont.) • Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in vessels that are poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic, and cast-iron. Reduce the flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the cooking vessel diameter. This will ensure more even heating within the cooking vessel and reduce the likelihood of burning or scorching the food. -

Oven Features Broiler burner Oven lights (3) Oven racks Convection Bake burner Rack Positions Each oven is equipped with three oven racks (some models include 1 or more TruGlide racks).

Page 12: Baking
Baking BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake) Full power heat is radiated from the U-shaped bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated with natural airflow. This function is recommended for single rack baking. Many cookbooks contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional manner. Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high temperature. - Page 13 Baking Conventional Baking Chart Single Rack Time Food Pan Size Position Temp (min) BREADS Biscuits Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚F (204˚C) 10 - 12 Yeast loaf Loaf pan 3 or 4 375˚F (191˚C) 30 - 35 Yeast rolls Cookie sheet 3 or 4 400˚F (204˚C) 12 - 15...

Page 16: Broiling
Broiling BROIL Heat radiates from the broiler located at the top of the oven cavity. The distance between the foods and the broil elements determines broiling speed. For “fast” broiling, food may be as close as 2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element. “Fast” broiling is best for meats where rare to medium doneness is desired. - Page 17 Broiling Rack Positions for Broiling The broiler uses heat rays to help cook the food. Because these rays travel only in straight lines, the effective cooking area of the broiler is reduced when using the higher rack positions. At high-rack positions, the rays cannot reach all corners of the broiler grid, so larger pieces of meat might not broil sufficiently at the outer edges.

Page 18: Convection Dehydrate
Convection Dehydrate Convection Dehydrate This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits and vegetables. Warm air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven and 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. -
Page 19: Cleaning And Maintenance
Cleaning and Maintenance Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your range must be kept clean and maintained properly. Before cleaning, make sure all controls are in the “OFF” position. Disconnect power if you are going to clean thoroughly with water. -
Page 20: Self-Clean Cycle
Cleaning and Maintenance Stainless Steel Parts All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If necessary, scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. -
