Broiling-Oven; Baking - DCS RGS-305 Use And Care Manual

CONVECTION BAKING
One to three racks can be used simultaneously during
convection baking. Place the rack/s in the desired
position before turning the oven on. Store the unused
racks out of the oven. Rack position 2 (second from
bottom) will probably be used the most for single rack
baking. When baking on more than one rack, you do not
need to stagger the pans. However, allow at least 1-inch
of space between the oven walls and the pans so the
heated air can circulate.
HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING
Recipes and baking times vary if you are baking at a
high altitude. For accurate information write to the

information and the baking mode (convection bake or
bake) you need, i.e., cakes, cookies, breads, etc. There may
be a cost for the bulletins.
SETTING THE OVEN FOR BROILING
Turn the control knob clockwise to the broil setting
(see fig. 10 &11).
PREHEATING
The broiler does not need to be preheated for most
broiling. To increase browning or for very thin food, preheat the broiler 5 to 8 minutes.
To Get the Best Results
Defrost the food before starting to cook.
Set a minute timer for the minimum time to check the food. Steaks should be at least one inch thick
if a rare doneness is desired. It is difficult to get rare with meat that is thinner, or to get a nice brown
piece of meat.
After half the total cooking time, turn the food over only once. It is not necessary to turn over thin
foods (filet of fish, ham slices, etc.) Liver slices must be turned over.
When top browning, use metal or glass-ceramic bakeware. DO NOT use heat-proof glass or pottery
as this type of glassware cannot withstand the intense heat of the broiler burner.
NOTE: If the door is closed during broiling, the oven cavity may get hot enough to cycle the
broil element on and off, producing food that tastes baked/roasted instead of
broiled.
NOTE: You cannot use the broiler burner and the bake burner at the same time. When one is
on, the other cannot be turned on. Do not use the convection fan in the broil mode.
