Safety
9WARNING
TIP OVER HAZARD!
A child or adult can tip the range over and be killed. Verify that the anti-tip bracket is securely installed. Ensure the anti-tip bracket is engaged whenever the range is moved to a new location.
Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place. Failure to follow the instructions in this manual can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.
Check for proper installation and use of the antitip bracket. Carefully tip the range forward pulling from the back to ensure that the anti-tip bracket engages the range leg and prevents tip-over. The range should not move more than 1” (2.5 cm).
Proper Installation and Maintenance
•WARNING: When properly cared for, your new appliance has been designed to be safe and reliable. Read all instructions carefully before use. These precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons. When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions must be followed, including those in the following pages.
•Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
•This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Connect only to a properly grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for details.
•This appliance is intended for normal family household use only. It is not approved for outdoor use. See the “Statement of Limited Product Warranty”. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer.
•Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, flammables or nonfood products in or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury.
•Do not operate this appliance if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged. Contact an authorized servicer.
•Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may create a risk of electric shock.
•Do not obstruct oven vents.
•Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. Refer all servicing to a factory authorized service center.
•In the event of an error the display flashes and beeps continuously. If this happens during self-clean, disconnect appliance from the power supply and call a qualified technician.
•In the event of an error the display flashes and beeps continuously. Disconnect appliance from the power supply and call a qualified technician.
•In order to keep control knobs from becoming excessively hot, the cooktop must be used in conjunction with a suitable ventilation system.
Gas Safety
•To prevent carbon monoxide build-up, do not block appliance air vents.
•Have the installer show you where the gas shut-off valve is located.
•If a burner goes out and does not reignite, call service.
•If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job of checking for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly tight, you can have a small leak and, therefore, a faint smell. Finding a gas leak is not a "do-it-yourself" procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the ON position and this must be done by a qualified service technician. See “WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS” on page 1.
For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean and dry.
Fire Safety
•Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of an appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
•If materials inside an oven or warming drawer should ignite, keep door closed. Turn off the appliance and disconnect the circuit at the circuit breaker box.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
•Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. For example, never use the appliance for warming or heating the room. Never use the appliance for storage.
•Set the burner control so that the flame does not extend beyond the bottom of the pan.
•Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot burner or grate. Do not allow pans to boil dry.
•If the cooktop is near a window, forced air vent, or fan, be certain that flammable materials such as window coverings do not blow over or near the burners or elements. They could catch on fire.
•Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
•Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.
•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 flambéing 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 burner.
•In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
•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.
•Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire to turn it off.
•Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly visible and easily accessible near the oven.
•Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
9WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
•SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. EXERCISE CAUTION TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
•NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN—You may be burned.
•DO NOT USE WATER, including wet rags or towels—a violent steam explosion will result.
•Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1)You know you have a CLASS ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
2)The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3)The fire department is being called.
4)You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
CAUTION:
All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use. In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Burn Prevention
•DO NOT TOUCH COOKTOP GRATES OR AREAS NEAR COOKTOP BURNERS - Areas near cooktop burners may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact cooktop burners or areas near them until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
•DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
•Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
•Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
•Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
•Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
•Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
•Use high heat settings on the cooktop only when necessary. To avoid bubbling and splattering, heat oil slowly on no more than a low-medium setting. Hot oil is capable of causing extreme burns and injury.
•Never move a pan of hot oil, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait until it is cool.
•Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
•Avoid reaching or leaning over the appliance. Be aware that certain clothing and hair sprays may contain flammable chemicals that could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surface units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.
•Do not touch interior surface of the drawer while it is in use. The interior of the drawer could become hot enough to cause burns. Allow drawer and rack (if equipped) to cool before handling.
•WARNING: To prevent burns, do not remove drawer while hot. Be sure drawer is empty before removing.
9WARNING
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating the appliance. Never use the appliance for storage.
9WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
•Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Child Safety
•When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
•Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
•Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
9CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.
Cleaning Safety
9WARNING
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:
This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
•IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking 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 burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of carbon monoxide.The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:
1)Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2)Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
3)Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
•Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes when applied to a hot surface. Wet cloths or sponges can cause burns from steam.
•When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does not lock, do not run SelfClean. Contact service.
•Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems. Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
•Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety
•Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
•Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
•Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent spills and movement of the pan.
•Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner will also improve efficiency.
•Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of fires, spills and burns.
•CAUTION: Plastic containers or plastic wrap can melt if in direct contact with the drawer or a hot utensil. If it melts onto the drawer, it may not be removable.
Food Safety
•CAUTION: To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:
1)DO NOT use a warming drawer to heat cold food (exception: it is safe to use the drawer to crisp crackers, chips or dry cereal and to warm plates.
2)Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends holding hot food at 140°F or warmer.
3)DO NOT warm food for longer than one hour.

Oven Features
Cooling Fan
The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may also run after the oven is off.
Convection Fan
The convection fan operates during any convection mode. When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened. The convection fan does run during self-clean, although not at the beginning of the mode.
Note: On some models, the convection fan also runs during preheat for the bake mode.
Oven Bottom
The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is protected from damage and spills.
Note:
Do not place food directly on the oven bottom.
Oven Vent
The oven vent is located at the back of the range. Warm air may be released from the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be hot when the oven is in use. Do not block the vent as it is important for air circulation.
9CAUTION
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of an appliance, especially oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Automatic Shutoff
The oven will automatically shut off after 24 hours.
Self-Cleaning
The oven features a self-cleaning function that eliminates the manual labor involved with cleaning your oven.
English 9
Indicators and Other Features
Default Settings - The cooking modes automatically select the default temperature. These can be changed when a different one is needed.
E Number Codes -These codes display when there is a problem with the range.
Stand By Mode
Stand by mode means that the oven has power but no cooking mode or timer is running.
Accessories

Operation - Cooktop
This section explains how to operate the cooktop. See “Getting the Most Out of Your Cooktop” for guidelines to improve cooktop results.
About the Cooktop
Use the cooktop for surface cooking applications such as boiling, frying, simmering, steaming and sautéing.
9WARNING
To avoid risk of personal injury, while the self-clean cycle is operating, the cooktop will not operate.
When using the cooktop and the oven is set to self-clean, "Turn Off Cooktop" is shown in the display. The self-clean cycle does not come on. Turn off the cooktop to use selfclean.
The cooktop cannot be used when self-clean is running in the oven.
9WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel can create small amounts of Carbon Monoxide, Benzene and Formaldehyde. To minimize exposure to these substances, the burners should be adjusted by a certified installer or agency to ensure proper combustion. Ensure proper ventilation with an open window or use a ventilation fan or hood when cooking with Gas. Always operate the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
The cooktop has one control knob for each burner. Push down and turn to the desired heat setting.
Normal Operation
(Electronic Ignition/Reignition)
The cooktop uses electronic igniters to light the burners. There is no pilot light. Each burner has its own igniter. If a burner flame blows out during use, the burner will automatically reignite.
9CAUTION
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure grates are installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.
Typical Flame Characteristics
The burner flame should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or fluttering. It should burn completely around the burner cap.
Yellow Flames:
Further adjustment is required.
Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:
Normal for LP Gas.
Soft Blue Flames:
Normal for Natural Gas.
If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that the
regulator is set for the correct fuel. After adjustment, retest.
Some yellow streaking is normal during the initial startup. Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-evaluate before making adjustments.
Figure 3: Checking Flame Characteristics
Foreign particles in the gas line may cause an orange flame during initial use. This should disappear with use. Check burner to make sure port holes are not obstructed. If the ports are clogged, see “Self Help” on page 38.
NOTE:
An audible “pop” may be heard when the burner is turned off manually. The “popping” may be louder with LP gas than with natural gas. This is normal.

Operation
About the Appliance
Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.
The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity. The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.
Thanks to the Self-Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self-Clean is done.
Clear labeling of the touch pads makes operating the oven very easy. This manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.
Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions!

Getting the Most Out of Your Cooktop
Cooktop Cooking Guide
Boiling Water
Time to boil can vary greatly depending on environmental conditions. Try the following tips to decrease boil time:
•Use a lid.
•Use a pan that is appropriately sized for the amount of water and the size of the burner.
•Select a pan with a flat base (See “Cookware Selection Guide” in the next column for details).
•Choose a medium-weight pan (rather than a heavyweight one).
•Make sure that the pan is positioned so that the entire base is in contact with the burner grate.
•Start with water that is already warm.
•Boil the smallest amount of water necessary. Smaller volumes will boil faster than larger volumes.
Recommended Settings
Use this chart as a guide for heat settings. A range of heat settings are listed because the actual setting depends on:
•type and quality of pan (See “Cookware Selection Guide”),

Cookware Selection Guide
Cookware Characteristics
•Aluminum or copper bottomed pans conduct heat evenly.
•Steel pans, if not combined with other metals, may cook unevenly.
•Cast-iron cookware absorbs heat slowly and cooks more evenly at low-to-medium settings.
•Flat, heavy bottom pans provide even heat and stability.
•DO NOT USE pans that are thin, warped, dented or ridged as they heat unevenly.
Tight Fitting Lids – A lid shortens cooking/boiling time by holding heat inside the pot.
Cookware Tips
•Use of pots and pans with rounded (either concave or convex) warped or dented bottoms should be avoided.
•Make sure the bottom of the pot or pan being used is clean and dry.
•Use pots and pans with thick, smooth metal bottoms.
Specialty Pans
Pan Bottom Diameter
•The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the pan or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the flames can lick up the sides of the pan.
•Oversize pans that span two burners are placed front to back, not side to side.
•For best cooking results, large pans should not extend over the sides of the grates.
English 22
Use Balanced Pans
•Balance is important for stability and even cooking.
•Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking or wobbling.
•Center pan over burner.
Use a Lid That Fits Properly
A well-fitting lid helps shorten the cooking time.
Specialty Pans
Specialty pans such as griddles, roasters, pressure cookers, woks, water bath canners and pressure canners must have the same features as described above. Use only a flat-bottomed wok or wok ring when using a wok.
Tight Fitting Lids – A lid shortens cooking/boiling time by holding heat inside the pot.
Cookware Tips
•Use of pots and pans with rounded (either concave or convex) warped or dented bottoms should be avoided.
•Make sure the bottom of the pot or pan being used is clean and dry.
•Use pots and pans with thick, smooth metal bottoms.
Getting the Most Out of Your Oven
General Tips
Pan Placement
Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other.
Rack Position
Rack positions are numbered from 1 to 6, from bottom to top.
Consult the food cooking charts at the back of this manual for recommended rack positions.
The rail at the top of the oven is used as the guide for the top rack (position 6). Use rack positions 1 through 6 only. DO NOT attempt to use the top guide to support an oven rack.

Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Preheating the Oven
•Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.
•Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Convection Bake, Convection Multi Rack, Pizza, Broil, Convection Broil, and Warm modes.
English 23
•Preheat is not used for Roast, Convection Roast and Proof modes.
•Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.
•Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
•Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.
•Use Fast Preheat to speed up preheating time.
Preheat Reminders
Your oven has one of the fastest preheat times in the market using a concealed bake element. The lower element is hidden under the oven bottom. It is normal that the preheat time is different than your previous oven that had an exposed element on the bottom.
•Cleaning the oven is easier because there is no cleaning around a coil element showing on the bottom of the oven. The hidden lower element is protected from food soils and spills. Wiping up excess spills is easy.
•Preheating is not necessary for meats, poultry, casseroles and some frozen foods.
•Preheat time will be longer when the electrical supply to your house is less than 240 volts.
•Increasing the oven temperature will require a longer preheat time. For example, the preheat time for 425° F is longer than the preheat time for 350° F.
When broiling, preheat the oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
For Best Results
•Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.
•Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.
•Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than opening the door frequently.
•Use the KitchenTimer to keep track of cooking times.
Baking Pans and Dishes
•Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25° F when baking using glass dishes.
•Preheat the oven before adding glass baking dishes.
•Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden-brown crusts, use light, anodized or shiny metal bakeware.
•Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the temperature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.
•Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware will increase the length of cooking time.
•Do not set any heavy object on the open oven door.
•Do not keep empty pans or pizza stones in the oven during cooking as this could change the cooking performance. Store pans outside the oven.
Opening the Oven Door
•Open and close the appliance door only by holding the door handle. To avoid risk of burns, do not touch any other parts of the door.
High Altitude Baking
•When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.
•For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides. Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.
Condensation
•It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.

temperature. |
|
|
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking time.
Tips
•When using the Bake mode, preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
•Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
•For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1 1/2” space between pans or dishes and oven walls.
•Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.
Convection Bake
Convection Bake is similar to Bake.
2heating elements. The main difference in convection baking is that
the heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.Heat comes from the upper and lower
The Convection Bake mode is well suited for cakes, bar cookies and breads to take advantage of the bottom heat, yielding a better crust on baked items.
The benefits of Convection Bake include:
•Slight decrease in cook time.
•Higher volume (yeast items rise higher).
Tips
•Place food in shallow, uncovered pans such as cookie sheet without sides.
•For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5.
•If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see in next column). Use these rack positions.
Auto Convection Conversion
Convection Bake and Convection Multi-Rack modes require a 25° F reduction in temperature. Auto Convection Conversion reduces the temperature you enter automatically. Simply enter the package or recipe temperature when setting the mode. The control calculates the correct temperature and it is shown in the display.
The Auto Convection Conversion feature can be turned on to allow for automatic temperature adjustments. See “Auto Convection Conversion” in the “Settings Menu Options” on page 20 for details.
Convection Multi-Rack
Multi-Rack mode cooks with heat
:wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.from a third element behind the back
The Convection Multi-rack mode is well suited for cooking individual serving-sized foods such as cookies and biscuits. It is also good for cooking on multiple racks (2 or 3) at the same time. Baking cookies is possible on 6 racks simultaneously. In this case, the baking time increases slightly.
The benefits of Multi-Rack include:
•Even browning.
•Time savings as a result of using multiple racks at one time.
Tips
•Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F if Auto Convection Conversion is not activated.
•Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as cookie sheets without sides.
•If baking more than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1” to 1 1/2” of air space around the pan. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other.
English 25
Pizza
In the Pizza mode, heat from the
2circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.upper and lower elements is
Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.
Tips
•There might be a slight decrease in baking time. Check before minimum package time.
•When baking a frozen pizza:
For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack. For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.
•When proofing pizza dough, coat dough with olive oil and cover it in a bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust formation.
•Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.
•If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the pan.
•If par baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough with a fork before baking.
•If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer crust.
•Preheat baking stones following manufacturer’s recommendations while the oven is preheating.
•Bake homemade pizzas on rack position 2 in the center of the rack.
•Follow manufacturer’s directions for frozen pizza.
•The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza mode.
Roast
Roast uses both the upper and lower elements to maintain the oven temperature. Roasting uses more
%intense heat from the upper element than the lower element. This results in more browning of the exterior while the inside remains especially moist.
Roast is best suited for meat and poultry and less tender cuts of meat.
Tips:
•Preheating the oven is not necessary.
•Use a high-sided broil pan or roasting pan. Cover dish with a lid or foil for less tender cuts of meat.
•For less tender cuts of meat, add liquids such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or stock for flavor and moisture.
•Roasting bags and using a lid are suitable for use in this mode.
•When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
Convection Roast
Convection Roast uses heat from
2the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan.
The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry. It is also suitable for roasting vegetables.
The benefits of Convection Roast include:
•As much as 25% faster cooking than non-convection modes.
•Rich, golden browning.
Tips:
•Preheating the oven is not necessary.
•Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.
•Check doneness early, since roasting time may decrease. Refer to the Meat/Poultry cooking chart for examples.
•Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
•Use a broil pan with a rack and grid or a shallow, uncovered pan with a rack for roasting.
•Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal termperature 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.
•Let meat stand covered with foil for 10 to 15 minutes after removing it from the oven.
•Refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart for recommended rack positions.
English 26
Broil
(Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.
The Broil mode is best suited for 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.
Tips:
•Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
•Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
•Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
•Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal rack, for broiling.
•Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
•Turn meats (other than fish) once during the recommended cook time. Fish does not need to be turned.
•When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as CorningWare ®.
•Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
•For broil times, refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart.
Convection Broil
Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It
7combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan.
The Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods. Always use convection broil with the door closed.
In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster.
Tips:
•Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
•Steaks and chops should be at least 1 1/2" thick.
•Use a broil pan and grid, or a deep pan with a metal rack, for broiling.
•Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
•Turn meats (other than fish) once during the recommended cook time. Fish does not need to be turned.
•Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
•For Convection Broil times, refer to the Meat/Poultry Cooking Chart.
Proof
In Proof, the oven uses the lower
$element to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or other yeast doughs.
•No preheat is necessary.
•Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
•The Proof Dough mode temperature range is 85° F to 125° F.
•The default temperature in the Proof Dough mode is 100° F.
•Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accommodates the size of the container.
•Keep the oven door closed and use the oven light to check the rising of the dough.
