Oven Operation
Oven Function Selector
Each oven has an oven function selector.
There are five settings on the selector.
•Bake: Heat is radiated from the U-shaped
bake burner in the bottom of the oven
cavity and is circulated with natural airflow.
This is your traditional bake setting. Use
this setting for baking and roasting on a
single rack, preferably in the center of the
oven.
•Infrared Broil: The broil burner at the top of the oven heats the metal
screen until it glows. The glowing screen produces the infrared heat,
searing the outside of broiled foods and sealing in juices.
•Convection Bake: Heat is radiated from the U-shaped bake burner in
the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by the motorized fan in
the rear of the oven. It provides more even heat distribution
throughout the oven cavity for all uses. Multiple rack use is possible for
the largest baking job.
