— Multiple rack baking.

— No special pans or bakeware needed.

How Quick Bake works

Quick Bake

uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat

uniformly and continuously around the oven. This

improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking

and browning results. It also gives better baking results

when using two racks at the same time.

Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing

in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with

Quick Bake

are juicer. Poultry is crisp on the outside while staying

tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry brown

more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be

cooked faster and more evenly with

Quick Bake

Suggestions for Quick Bake

When baking

•

For optimum cooking results it is recommended to

preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,

biscuits and breads.

•

Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe’s

recommended oven temperature. Follow the

remainder of the recipe’s instructions using the

minimum recommended cook time.

•

When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in

positions 3 & 5 for best results (See Fig. 1).

When roasting

•

Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using

Quick Bake

•

Since

Quick Bake

cooks food faster, reduce the cook

time by 25% from the recommended cook time of

your recipe. Check the food at this time. If necessary,

increase cook time until the desired doneness is

obtained.

•

Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will

prevent the air from circulating around the food.

Setting Quick Bake

The oven can be programmed to Quick Bake at any

temperature from 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 287°C). The

increments (1°C if the control is set to display Celsius).

3. As soon as the

pad is released, the oven

will begin heating to the selected temperature. When

the displayed temperature reaches the desired baking

temperature, the preheat indicator light will turn OFF

and the control will beep 3 times.

4. To cancel quick bake, press

To change the oven temperature after Quick Bake

has started

1. Press

2. If necessary, press the or pad to increase or

decrease the oven set temperature.

•

Layer cakes will have better results using the

pad.

•

When using Quick Bake (some models) cook time

reductions may vary depending on the amount and

type of food being cooked.
