Convection Bake
Heat is transferred from the bake burners in the bottom of the oven cavity to the oven cavity itself.
The convection fan at the rear of the oven then circulates it. This convection process provides a more even heat
distribution throughout the oven cavity.
Using multiple racks is possible for large-batch baking. Convection cooking is faster, can be done at lower
temperatures and provides more even temperatures than regular cooking.
Convection Roast
The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Using the cover and broiler pan (not
provided), heated air will be circulated over the around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices
quickly for a moist and tender product, while at the same time creating a rich golden brown exterior. When
convection roasting, it is important that you use the broiler pan for best convection roasting results. The pan is
used to catch grease spills and has a cover to prevent grease splatters.
Convection Defrost
With temperature control off, the motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air. The fan accelerates natural
defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid illness and food waste, do not allow defrost food to remain in the oven
for more than two hours without being cooked.
Broiler Operation
Note: Door must be closed during broiling operation.
The broil burner is located at the top of the oven. This burner heats the metal screen until it glows. The glowing
screen produces heat, searing the outside of broiled foods and sealing in juices. Broiling is a method of cooking
tender cuts of meat directly under the broiler in the oven.
Oven broiling is done with the oven door closed. It is normal and even necessary to have some smoke to give the
food a broiled flavor
Setting Broil
Turn the oven control knob clockwise to select the Broil function. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the
oven broiler. The temperature of Broil feature is 500˚F (260˚C).
Used together, the broil pan and insert(not included) allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high
heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil.
The exposed grease could catch fire. To set the oven to Broil:
1. Place the insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the pan insert.
2. Adjust the interior oven rack to the desired position and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the
pan and position it directly under the broil burner. (If preheating is needed, put in the pan after the broil burner
reaches the temperature.)
3. Turn the control knob to Broil setting position.
The oven indicator will remain on until the control knob is turned to the OFF position or the temperature control
cycles off.
Position the rack at the correct level. The farther away the food is from the broiler, the more well done it will be
inside. Preheating the oven is not necessary. Push in and turn the knob to BROIL. Turn the food over at the
halfway point. Always pull the rack out to the “stop” position before turning or removing food.
Oven Cleaning Tips
1. After each use, and once the oven is cooled, clean splatters and spills immediately.
2. Do not allow foods with a high sugar or acid content to remain on the oven cavity surface.
3. Use an oven cleaner to clean the oven cavity.
Oven Thermostat & Cooking time
The numbers printed on the control panel indicate the oven temperature setting
value (°F). To set the temperature, adjust the control knob indicator to line up with
the desired number on the control panel.
Note: The BROIL function is only for turning on the broil burner.
Cooking times can vary according to the type of food, its density and its size. It is
advisable to watch when cooking for the first time and to check results since similar
results are obtained when preparing the same dishes under the same conditions.
Use the thermostat to control the temperatures, and control the time according to
the cooking guides.
Thermostat is equipped in the oven, when the oven temperature reaches the setting, the oven temperature will
stay relatively stable. Actual oven temperature can be read from the gauge on the control panel.
