IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California

to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when cooking is complete.

NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run even after the oven is turned off.

Cleaning and Care

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two racks, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11???2??? between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall.

Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack several inches below the food.

Using the convection oven.

Convection Fan

In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food.

This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned???often in less time with convection heat.

NOTE: The convection fan will cycle on and off while cooking to best distribute hot air in the oven.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

1-Rack Convection Baking

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food using the bake and broil elements.

When convection baking with only 1 rack, use

CONVECTION BAKE 1 RACK and for best results place the rack on shelf C or D at the center of the oven. Cook times may decrease, so food should be checked earlier than package directions to make sure that it does not overcook.

Ideal for cooking large casseroles and lasagna with good results.

Multi-Rack Convection Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results using multiple racks.

The amount of time required for multi-rack baking may increase slightly for some foods, but overall time is saved because two to three times as much food is cooked at once. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and other quick breads give good results with multi-rack baking.

When baking on 3 racks, place one rack in the second (B) position, one in the fourth (D) position and one in the 6th (F) position.

27??? Ovens

When baking on 3 racks, divide the oven into thirds by placing the offset rack in the third (C) rack position and the straight racks in first (A) and fourth (D) rack positions.

For two-rack baking, place the offset rack in the bottom (A) rack position. Place the straight rack in the third (C) rack position.

CAUTION: When you are using the offset rack (on 27??? models) in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the rack out. We recommend that you pull the rack out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The offset rack is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the rack and pull all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using a rack in the lowest position (A).

Convection Roast

??? Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and 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 you are convection roasting it is important that you use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack for best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters, while the rack allows the heated air to circulate under the meat and increase browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.

???Place the rack (on 27??? models, use the offset rack) in the lowest rack position (A).

???Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the roasting rack over them, making sure the posts on the roasting rack fit into the holes in broiler pan.

???Place the meat on the roasting rack.

CAUTION: When you are using the offset rack (on 27??? models) in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the rack out.

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven.

If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400??F can also be used.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

???Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.

???Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled ???margarine??? to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high-moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
