To Use:
When using convection temperature conversion for BAKED
GOODS and OTHER FOODS, allow the oven to preheat before
placing food in the oven by adding 15 minutes to the standard
cook time.
1. Press EASY CONVECT until the desired option is displayed
(MEATS, BAKED GOODS or OTHER FOODS), then press
START.
2. Press the number pads to enter the desired cook
temperature, then press START.
3. Press number pads to enter standard cook time, then press
START.
"Preheating" will appear in the lower oven display until the set
temperature is reached.
4. Place the food in the oven at the appropriate time.
When the stop time is reached, end-of-cycle tones will sound
if enabled. Open the door and check food.
5. Press LOWER OVEN OFF when finished.
6. Remove food from the oven.
Convection Bake can be used to bake and cook foods on single
or multiple racks. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be
needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods,
be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures.
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space
between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
Allow the range to preheat before placing food in the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the bake burner and convect
element heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the convection
element and bake burner will cycle on and off in intervals to
maintain oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking or
preheating, the convection element and fan will turn off
immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.
• Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C).
To Convection Bake:
Before convection baking, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
1. Press BAKE under the Lower Oven Convect icon.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
325°F (163°C). The convection bake range can be set
between 170°F and 550°F (77°C and 305°C).
2. Press START.
"Preheating" will show in the display until the set temperature
is reached.
"Lo" will also appear in the display if the actual oven
temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the
oven display will show the oven temperature increasing.
When the set temperature is reached, if on, 2 tones will
sound.
3. Press OFF when finished cooking.
Convection Roast can be used to roast meat and poultry. During
convection roasting, the bake burner and convect element will
cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while
the fan constantly circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the
convect element and convection fan will turn off immediately and
the bake burner will turn off within 2 minutes. They will come
back on once the door is closed.
• Reduce recipe cook time by 15-30%.
To Convection Roast:
Before convection roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. It is not necessary to
wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless
recommended in the recipe.
1. Press ROAST under the Lower Oven Convect icon.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
350°F (177°C). The convection roast range can be set
between 170°F and 550°F (77°C and 305°C).
2. Press START.
"Preheating" will show in the display until the set temperature
is reached.
3=
"Lo" will also appear in the display if the actual oven
temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the
oven display will show the oven temperature increasing.
When the set temperature is reached, if on, 1 tone will sound.
Press OFF when finished cooking.
Proofing bread prepares the dough for baking by activating the
yeast. Follow the recipe directions as a guide.
There are two options for Bread Proofing, Standard Proof and
Rapid Proof. Standard Proof is used for fresh dough, thawed
dough and for the first and second rise. Rapid proof should be
used for frozen dough and can be used for the second rise of the
formed dough.
To Proof:
Before first proofing, place the dough in a lightly greased bowl
and cover loosely with wax paper, coated with shortening. Place
on rack guide 2 and close the oven door.
NOTE: If the oven temperature is greater than 100°F (38°C),
"oven cooling" will be displayed until the temperature is less than
100°F (38°C).
1. Press BREAD PROOF until the desired proof is displayed
("Standrd" or "Rapid").
2. Press START.
Let the dough rise until nearly doubled in size. Proofing time
may vary depending on dough type and quantity.
3. Press LOWER OVEN OFF when finished proofing.
Before second proofing, shape the dough, place it in baking
pan(s) and cover loosely. Follow the same placement and control
steps above. Before baking, remove the cover.
