Important Safety Instruc- tions
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
a)Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b)Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flamb??ing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
c)Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d)Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
???In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immedi- ately to extinguish flames.
???Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
???Take care that drafts like those from fans or forced air vents do not push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of the pan.

The probe can be used to determine the internal doneness or the ???END??? temper- ature of many foods,especially meats and poultry.
The temperature range for the probe is 135??F to 200??F (57??C to 93??C). Oven temperature can be set for 100??F up to 450??F (38??C up to 232??C).

Oven Cooking Modes
Baking is cooking with dry, heated air. Both the Bake, Proof and Warm upper and lower element cycle to maintain the oven temperature. Bake mode can be used to
prepare foods like pastries and casseroles as well as to roast meats.
Note:
Depending on the model, you may hear the convection fan while the oven is preheating for the bake mode. This is normal.
In the Proofing mode, the oven will use the upper and lower element to maintain a low temperature to proof bread.
???Proofing is the rising of a yeast dough.
???The Proofing mode temperatures are 85?? to 110?? F. The default temperature is 100?? F.
???Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accommodates the size of the container.
???Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check the rising of the dough.
In Warming mode, the upper and lower elements maintain a low temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at serving temperature.
???Use the Warming setting on the oven to keep foods hot until ready to serve.
???Warming mode temperatures are 140?? - 220?? F. Default temperature is 170??.
???Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.
CAUTION:
When using Warm mode, follow these guidelines:
???Do not use the Warm Mode to heat cold food.
???Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recom- mends holding hot food at 140??F or warmer.
???DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.
Convection baking is similar to baking. Heat Convection Bake comes from the lower heating element and a
third element behind the backwall. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the oven by the con- vection fan.
The Convection Bake mode is
racks. It can be used to prepare cookies, pies, cupcakes, pastries, breads, snack foods and appetizers among other items. The benefits of Convection Bak- ing include:
???Slight decrease in cooking time
???Three rack cooking (more even browning)
???Higher Volume (yeast items rise higher)
???Ability to cook more items at once
English 32

For Best Results:
???Reduce recipe temperature by 25?? F. Refer to Convection Baking chart.
???Place food in
???Center baking pans side to side on the oven rack
Automatic Convection Conversion In the convection bake mode, the temperature is automatically reduced 25?? F from the package or recipe temperature. Simply enter the package or recipe temperature when setting the mode and the range calculates the correct tem- perature.
The Automatic Convection Conversion feature can be turned off to allow for manual temperature adjustment. See ???Turn Automatic Convection Conversion ON or OFF??? on page 19 for details.
When the Automatic Convection Conversion feature is activated, the display will read AUTO CONV BAKE. When the feature is turned off, it will read CONV BAKE.

a.This temperature must be manually reduced by 25?? F if the Automatic Convection Conversion feature has been turned off.
b.This chart is a guide. Actual times depend on the mixes or recipes baked. Follow recipe or package directions.
Broiling uses intense heat radiated from the Broilupper element. The Broil mode is best suited to
cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1??? or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed.
The benefits of Broiling include:
???Fast and efficient cooking
???Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids
???Browning as the food cooks
English 33
Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance
For Best Results:
???Preheat oven
???Steaks and Chops should be at least 3/4??? thick
???Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking
???Use the broil pan and grid included with your range
???Do not cover the broiler grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering
???Turn meats once halfway through the recommended cooking time (see Broil Chart for examples).
???When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as Corningware??.
???Never use
Table 5: Broiling Chart
a.Broiling times are approximate and may vary slightly, Times are based on cooking with a preheated broil element.
Convection Broil (some models)
Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan. The Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, ten- der cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is typically not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods.
Always convection broil with the door closed. In
addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster than standard Broiling.
Note:
The only heat setting for the Convection Broil mode is High.

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and Convection Roast bottom elements as well as heat circulated by
the convection fan. The Convection Roast mode is well suited to preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.
The benefits of Convection Roasting, include:
???As much as 25% faster cooking than stan- dard Roasting/ Baking
???Rich, golden browning
For Best Results:
???Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.
???Check doneness early as roasting time may decrease by as much as 25%. Refer to Convection Roast Chart for examples.
???Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
???Use the broil pan and grid provided with the range for roasting. A
???Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal temperature of the meat.
???If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent overbrowning.
