VDR Dual Fuel Ranges
BAKE (Two-Element Bake)
Full power heat is radiated from the
bake element in the bottom of the
oven cavity and supplemental heat
is radiated from the broil element.
This function is recommended for
single rack baking. Many cookbooks
contain recipes to be cooked in the
conventional manner. Conventional
baking/ roasting is particularly
suitable for dishes that require a
high temperature. Use this setting
for baking, roasting, and casseroles.
To Use BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
oven on.
2. Close the door.
3. Set the oven function selector to “BAKE” and oven temperature
control knob to desired temperature.
CONV BAKE (Convection Bake)
The bottom element operates at full power, and the top broil element
operates at supplemental power.
The heated air is circulated by the
motorized fan in the rear of the
oven providing a more even heat
distribution. This even circulation of
air equalizes the temperature
throughout the oven cavity and
eliminates the hot and cold spots
found in conventional ovens. A
major benefit of convection baking
is the ability to prepare food in
quantity using multiple racks— a feature not possible in a standard
oven.
When roasting using this setting, cool air is quickly replaced, searing
meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on
the inside with less shrinkage. With this heating method, foods can be
baked and roasted at the same time with minimal taste transfer, even
when different dishes are involved, such as cakes, fish or meat. The hot
air system is especially economical when thawing frozen food.
To Use CONV BAKE Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
oven on.
2. Close the door.
3. Set the oven function selector to “CONV BAKE” and the oven
temperature control knob to desired temperature.
TRU CONV (TruConvec™)
The rear element only operates
at full power. There is no direct
heat from the bottom or top
elements. The motorized fan in
the rear of the oven circulates air
in the oven cavity for even
heating. Use this setting for
foods that require gentle cooking
such as pastries, souffles, yeast
breads, quick breads and cakes. Breads, cookies, and other baked goods
come out evenly textured with golden crusts. No special bakeware is
required. Use this function for single rack baking, multiple rack baking,
roasting, and preparation of complete meals. This setting is also
recommended when baking large quantities of baked goods at one time.
To Use TRU CONV Function
1. Arrange the oven rack in the desired position before turning
oven on.
2. Close the door.
3. Set the oven function selector to “TRU CONV” and the oven
temperature control knob to desired temperature.
