interfere with the circulation of heated air over
the food.
5. When using a meat thermometer, insert the
probe half way into the center of the thickest
portion of the meat. (For poultry, insert the
thermometer probe between the body and leg
into the thickest part of the inner thigh) To
ensure an accurate reading, the tip of the probe
should not touch the bone, fat or grisle. Check
the meat thermometer 2/3 of the way through the
recommended roasting time. After reading the
meat thermometer once, insert it 1/2 inch
further, then take a second reading. If second
reading registeres lower than the first, continue
cooking the meat.
6. Remove meats from the oven when the
thermometer registers 5°F to 10°F below the
desired temperature. The meat will continue to
cook after removal. Allow 15 to 20 minutes after
roasting in order to make carving easier.
7 The Convection mode is not recommended for
meats or poultry cooked with a cooking bag, foil
tent or other cover. Food cooked with these
methods will produce better results when using
the standard Bake mode.
8 Roasting times will always vary according to the
size, shape and quality of meats and poultry.
Less tender cuts of meat are best prepared in the
standard Bake mode and may require moist
cooking techniques. Follow your favorite
cookbook recipes.
9 Reduce splatter by lining the bottom of the
roasting pan with lightly crushed aluminum foil.
To set oven for roasting with the con-
vection mode, using a recipe requiring
350°F:
1. Arrange oven racks to desired position.
2. Turn "Oven" selector knob to 350°F.
3. The oven indicator light will turn on, and the oven
will begin to heat. Once the oven temperature
reaches 350°F the oven indicator light will turn
off.
4. Press fan switch to the "On" position to begin
convection cooking. Once the oven reaches
350°F, the light will turn off. The light will cycle on
and off until the "Oven" Selector Knob is turned
to the "OFF" position.
To change the Convection mode temper-
ature (example changing 350°F a 425°F):
After the oven has already been set at 350°F, and
the oven temperature needs to be changed to 425°F,
turn the "Bake" control knob to 425°F. When the oven
temperature reaches 425°F, the oven indicator light
will turn off.

bROILING

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of
meat directly under the infrared broiler in the
oven. Broiling in the oven is accomplished with
the oven door closed. It is normal and neces-
sary for some smoke to be present to give the
food a broiled flavor.

Preheating

Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks
(Remove the broiler pan before preheating with the
infrared broiler. Foods will stick on hot metal). To
preheat, turn the "Oven" selector knob to the "Broil"
position. Wait for the burner to become hot, usually
about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when
broiling meat well-done.

To broil

Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and
cook on the second side. Season and serve. Always
pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning
or removing food.
