Clocks and Timers

and five programming modes. Both the COOK TIME mode and TIMER mode can be used to time cooking periods.

Setting the Clock

The time-of-day must be set before any other program can be used. When your oven is first connected to the power in your home, the timer display will show 12:00.

To Program the Time-of-Day:

Setting COOK TIME Program

COOK TIME automatically ends a cooking function. This feature does not automatically start a cooking function. This program is used for controlled timing of baked or roasted foods.

1.Press the ???COOK TIME??? button once to access the timed cook mode. A single tone will sound and 0:00 will appear on the display.

2.The UP and DOWN buttons are used to set the timer. ???UP??? increases time; ???DOWN??? decreases time. Tapping ???UP??? and ???DOWN??? will increase or decrease the time in 1 minute increments. When the ???UP??? or ???DOWN??? is held down, time will increase or decrease in 5 minute increments until the next hour is reached, then will continue to increase or decrease in hour increments.

3.Release the button when the appropriate time has been reached.

To Set The Bake Temperature

natural airflow. This function is recommended for single rack bakings. Many cookbooks contain recipes to be cooked in the conventional manner. Conventional baking is suitable for dishes that require a high temperature. Use this setting for baking and casseroles.

Convection Defrost

With the selector set to ???CONVECTION BAKE??? and the temperature control off, air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more than two hours.

1.Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.

2.Set the temperature control to ???OFF???.

3.Turn the selector to ???CONVECTION BAKE???.

and the broil elements determines broiling speed. For

The time-of-day can be changed by following steps 1 through 4. It cannot be changed while there is a TIMER or COOK TIME cycle programmed into the timer.

Setting the Min/Hour Timer

The MIN/HOUR TIMER is designed for accurate timing of foods. It is ideal for baking delicate items such as biscuits, cookies, and popovers, and for precise broiling.

To Program the Min/Hour Timer:

1.Press the ???TIMER??? button. The timer will display :00.

2.Press the ???UP??? or ???DOWN??? buttons to increase or decrease time. The time will change in 1 minute increments. When the button is held down, time will change in 5 minute increments until the next hour is reached.

Rack Positions

The convection oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks and four rack positions. Position 4 is the farthest from the oven bottom. Position 1 is the closest to the oven bottom. The racks can be easily removed and arranged at various levels. For best results with conventional baking, DO NOT use more than one rack at a time. It is recommended when using two racks to do the following:

1.Arrange the oven racks in the desired position BEFORE heating

the oven. If cooking on two racks at the same time, use rack positions 2 and 4.

2.Turn the function selector to the desired function.

3.Set the temperature control to the desired temperature.

4.Place the food in the oven after preheating. Preheating is complete when the tone sounds.

BAKE (Natural Airflow Bake)

Use this setting for baking, roasting, and preparing casserole dishes.

Convection Bake

Use this setting to bake and roast foods at the same time with minimal taste transfer.

BROIL (Infrared Broil)

Use this setting for broiling dark meats at 1??? thickness or less where rare or medium doneness is desired.

CONVECTION BROIL (Infrared

Convection Broil)

Use this setting to broil thick cuts of meat.

Convection Dehydrate (CONVECTION

BAKE)

Use this function to dehydrate fruits and vegetables.

Convection Defrost (CONVECTION

Electronic Timing/Temperature Center

The electronic timing/temperature center is used to program and control all timing and temperature functions. Each oven has a separate temperature control and a separate oven function selector. The button control can be set at any temperature from 170??F (76.6??C) to 550??F (287.8??C) by pressing ???UP??? or ???DOWN???. There are separate settings for broiling and HI/LO BROIL. ALWAYS be sure the controls are in the OFF position when the oven is not in use.

in the rear of the oven providing 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 convection ovens. Multiple rack use is possible for the largest baking job. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced???searing meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage. This even circulation of air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens.

Convection Dehydrate

This oven is designed not only to cook, but also to dehydrate fruits and vegetables. With the oven function selector set to Convection Bake and the temperature control on 170?? F (76.6?? C), warm air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Over a period of time, the water is removed from the food by evaporation. Removal of water inhibits growth of microorganisms and retards the activity of enzymes. It is important to remember that dehydration does not improve the quality, so only fresh, top-quality foods should be used.

1.Prepare the food as recommended.

2.Arrange the food on drying racks (not included with the oven; contact a local store handling speciality cooking utensils).

3.Set the appropriate low temperature and turn the selector to ???CONVECTION BAKE???.

W ARNING

To avoid sickness and food waste when using automatic time baking:

???DO NOT use foods that will spoil while waiting for cooking to start, such as dishes with milk or eggs, cream soups, custards, fish, pork, poultry, or foods with stuffing.

???Any food that has to wait for cooking to start should be very cold or frozen before it is placed in the oven.use foods containing baking powder or DOyeastNOTwhen automatic time baking. They will not rise properly.

???DO NOT allow food to remain in the oven for more than two hours after the end of the cooking cycle.

???To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in the oven for more

than two hours.???

C AUTION

You must carefully check the food during the dehydration process to ensure that it does not catch fire.

NOTICE

DO NOT turn the Temperature Control on during defrosting. Turning the convection fan on will accelerate the natural defrosting of the food without the heat.
