Turning On the Oven

After adjusting the racks as needed for the cooking task, select the best cooking mode.

• CONVECTION BAKE - Uses the convection fan

and a bottom heat source (for single-rack items in a deep pan).

• CONVECTION BROIL - Uses the convection fan and a top heat source (for items that do not need turning: e.g., fish, garlic bread, thinner cuts

of meat).

• PURE CONVECTION™ - Uses only convection cook- ing for even heat (for baked goods, multi-rack cook- ing).

• CONVECTION ROAST - Uses top and bottom heat sources with the convection fan (for rib roasts, turkeys, chickens, etc).

•BAKE - Uses a bottom heat source (common for basic recipes).

•BROIL - Uses a top heat source (for grilling smaller cuts of meat or toasting bread).

IMPORTANT

•Keep the oven door closed as much as possible when cooking.

•The oven door must stay closed, and the meat probe must be disconnected for all broiling modes.

See Pg. 6 for detailed about the various cooking modes.

1.Touch the key for the desired cooking mode.

The preset temperature appears on the display with the icon(s) for the selected cooking mode (see above). Double ovens: Select the desired oven by touching the cooking mode key under UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN on the control panel.

2.To cook at the preset temperature, touch START; otherwise, enter the temperature (ex. 4-2-5) on the number pad, then touch START.

You can enter any temperature from 100°F (37°C) to 555°F (291°C). The suggested broil temperature is 555°F. Double ovens have one START key (control panel, left side) that starts both ovens.

NOTE

When using Pure Convection or a bake or roast mode: “PRE-” (preheating) and the current oven temperature appear on the display until the oven reaches the set temperature (usually 15-20 min), then it beeps, and “PRE-” disappears.

3.When the preheat chime sounds, carefully place your food in the oven.

Placing the food in the oven during preheating will overcook the food.

Turning Off the Oven

To turn the oven off, touch CANCEL/SECURE. Double ovens: Touch CANCEL/SECURE under UPPER OVEN or

LOWER OVEN, whichever is in use.

NOTE

After you turn off the oven, the cooling fans may continue to run until the oven’s internal parts have cooled down.

OPERATING THE OVEN

Changing the Oven Temperature

To change the cooking temperature while the oven is on:

1.Touch the key of the selected cooking mode. The symbol for that cooking mode appears on the display.

2.Enter the temperature on the keypad (ex: 3-7-5), and touch CONTINUE.

IMPORTANT

•If you increase the temp by 50°F (28°C) or more, the oven enters Preheat mode to raise the temperature rapidly to the new setting. (PRE- appears on the display.) To prevent excessive browning, you should take the food from the oven while “PRE-” is on the display.

•If you lower the temp, it is best to place the food in the oven after the new, lower temp appears.

About Cook Mode Preset Temperatures

The oven has a factory-preset temperature for each cooking mode to reduce the need to always enter the temperature. See Turning On the Oven for directions on how to cook at the preset temperature.

	Cooking Mode	Preset Temp
	Convection Bake	325°F (163°C)
	Pure Convection
	Bake	350°F (177°C)
	Convection Roast	375°F (191°C)
	Broil	555°F (291°C)
	Convection Broil

NOTE

Activating Lock-out turns off all active timers.

About the 12-Hr Timer

The oven has a factory-programmed timer that automatically turns the oven off after 12 hours of continuous use. This timer resets if you change the cooking temperature or mode.

NOTE

The 12-hr timer is automatically disabled when the Sabbath feature is active.

To disable/enable the 12-hour timer:

1.With the oven off, touch-hold TIMER 1 until the control panel beeps and “12Hr” appears on the display (about 10 sec’s), then “ON” appears on the display when the 12-hr timer is enabled.

2.Push the # key to enable/disable the 12-hr timer.

3.Push CANCEL/SECURE to save the changes and return to the clock display.

About the Cooking Modes

There are three basic styles of oven cooking:

Baking–Gentle cooking of dry foods (e.g., cookies, cakes, soufflés).

Roasting–Cooking of meats/vegetables for a longer time (perhaps hours).

Broiling–Cooking with intense heat for a short time.

Changing the Cooking Mode

To change the cooking mode while the oven is on (ex: to change from Convection Bake to Bake):

•Touch the key for the new cooking mode, then touch

CONTINUE.

About the Lock-Out Feature

To disable the control-panel keys:

•Touch-hold CANCEL/SECURE for 6 seconds.

The control-panel keys stop working, and OFF appears on the display. Only CANCEL/SECURE and the oven light keys are functional.

Double ovens: Touching the upper or lower CANCEL/ SECURE key locks the control panel for both ovens.

To enable the control-panel keys:

• Touch-hold CANCEL/SECURE for 3 seconds.

Baking

In this conventional baking mode, heat is applied to the food from below. Most baking times are established in this mode.

Baking Tips

•For best results, use a single rack in Baking mode. Any multi-rack baking should be done in a convection mode.

•Follow the recipe’s original cooking time and temperature, and use the oven timers to set the cooking time.

•Avoid repeated opening of the oven door to check progress. Look instead, through the window when possible.

•Check the food at the shortest recommended baking time. (For cakes, a wooden toothpick poked through the center will come out clean when the food is done.)

6

OPERATING THE OVEN

Convection

Generally, cooking times are about 25% shorter in the convection modes. Set the timer 15 minutes before the shortest stated time, and make adjustments as needed.

In Pure Convection and Convection Bake modes, some recipes, especially homemade foods, may require adjustment and testing when converting from standard baking. If you are unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by preparing the recipe using the standard bake settings.

If the food does not cook satisfactorily in this first trial, adjust one variable (e.g., cooking time, rack position, temperature), and repeat the convection test. If needed, keep adjusting one variable at a time until you perfect the process.

There are three types of convection baking:

•Pure Convection

•Convection Bake

•Convection Roast

Pure Convection

The uniform air circulation of this mode lets you expand your use of oven space. Use this mode for singleand multirack baking, roasting, and preparation of complete meals. Many foods (e.g., pizza, cake, cookies, rolls, and prepared frozen foods can be prepared on two or three racks at a time. Pure Convection is also good for whole roasted duck, lamb shoulder, and short leg of lamb.

AIR FLOW

For multi-rack baking:

•Typically, when baking on two racks with your oven, use rack Levels 3 and 5 (counting from the bottom up). When baking on three racks, use Levels 2, 4, and 6.

•When adapting a single-rack recipe to multi-rack baking, you may need to lengthen the baking time due to the greater mass of food in the oven.

Convection Bake

Use this mode for single-rack baking. This combination of the convection fan and bottom heat is best for fruit crisps, custard pies, double-crusted fruit pies, quiches, yeast-bread loaves, and popovers. Items baked in a deep ceramic dish or clay pots are best in this mode. Most of these items cook in a deep pan and require browning on the top and bottom.

Convection Roast

The oven’s Convection Roast mode combines the convection fan, and top and bottom heat. This mode is best for bulky meats (e.g., rib roasts, poultry, pork shoulder).

Broiling

There are two types of broiling:

•Broil

•Convection Broil

WARNING

•The oven door must be completely closed when broiling.

•To avoid damaging the meat probe, remove it from the oven when broiling. If the meat probe is plugged in, the broil modes will not start, and the meat probe symbol will flash if you try to start the oven in a broil mode.

Broiling is a quick, flavorful way to prepare such foods as steak, chicken, chops, hamburgers, and fish.

Broil

This mode uses top heat and is best for cooking smaller amounts of food.

Convection Broil

This mode combines the convection fan with top heat. It is best for items that do not need to be flipped such as, thinner cuts of meat, fish, and garlic bread.

Broiling Tips

•To reduce the chance of overcooking, use rack Levels 1 – 4. Results depend on the rack level and type of food being broiled.

•It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor.

•You should set the timer when broiling.

•Always use a grill over a broiler pan so fat and grease can drain. This reduces, spatter, excess smoke, and flare-ups.

•Start with a room-temp broiler pan for even cooking.

•Use tongs or a spatula to turn/remove meats. Never pierce the meat or the natural juices will escape.

•Broil food on the first side for a little more than half of the recommended time, then season and turn. Season the second side just before removing the food from the oven.

•To prevent sticking, lightly grease the broiler grill. Excess grease will result in heavy smoke. For easier cleaning, remove the broiler pan and grill when removing the food.

7

OPERATING THE OVEN

Using the Oven Timers

The oven’s two built-in timers can be used simultaneously and set for 1 minute to 99 hrs 59 min.

The timer symbol appears on the display when one or both of the timers is in use.

WARNING

The timers only count down time; they do not turn the oven off. To learn how to turn the oven off automatically, see Time-Delay Cooking Features.

NOTE

Touching CANCEL/SECURE does NOT reset or stop the timers.

1.Touch the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 key.

2.On the keypad, enter the desired cook time in hours and minutes.

To enter 11 hours, 30 minutes, touch 1-1-3-0.

For 25 minutes, touch 2-5. When you touch START, the time will appear on the display and begin to count down.

3.Touch START.

The cook time appears on the display and begins counting down.

When the countdown ends, 0:00 appears on the display. The Timer number (1 or 2) blinks on the display, and a beep sounds. The alarms for Timer 1 and Timer 2 have different cadence.

Timer	Alarm Cadence
1	1 sec on, 1 sec off, repeat
2	1 sec. on, 1 sec. off, 2 sec. on, 1 sec. off, repeat

When the alarm sounds, touch TIMER to silence the alarm, then touch CLOCK to return to the main display.

Using Time-Delay Cooking

This feature lets you set the oven to turn itself on/off at a later time.

About Time-Delay Cooking

•Time-delay can be used for all but the Broil modes.

•You may use the timers while using time-delay cooking.

•You can cancel the time-delay cycle any time by pushing

CANCEL/SECURE.

WARNING

Food safety is an important consideration in time-delay cooking. To avoid sickness and spoilage, take these steps:

•Avoid using foods that will spoil before the oven turns on (e.g., foods containing eggs, dairy products, cream soups, meat).

•Do not leave food in the oven after it turns off. When the temperature drops below 140°F (60°C), bacteria can develop.

•Place only very cold or frozen food in the oven. Most unfrozen foods should rest in the oven no more than two hours before cooking begins.

Three Ways to Use Time-Delay Cooking

The keys are used for time-delay cooking.

•START TIME: The time when the oven starts cooking.

•COOK TIME: The amount of time the oven cooks before entering Hold mode.

•STOP TIME: The time when the oven turns off and enters Hold mode.

When you set 2 of the 3 above, the oven automatically calculates the third.

•Set the time the oven turns on (START TIME), and set it to turn off later using either COOK TIME or STOP TIME.

•Set START TIME only, then turn the oven off manually when you are done cooking.

•Turn the oven on manually, and set it to turn off later using either COOK TIME or STOP TIME.

Viewing Settings As the Timer Counts

While a timer (or timers) runs, you can check the clock or the other timer without interrupting any of these settings:

•Touch CLOCK to view the current time.

•Touch TIMER 1 to view the time left on (or set) Timer 1.

•Touch TIMER 2 to view the time left on (or set) Timer 2.

Changing the Time On a Timer

1.Touch the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 key.

2.Enter the new time on the keypad and touch START.

Stopping a Timer Before Time Runs Out

1.Touch the desired Timer key twice.

The timer stops; the zeroes out.

2.Touch CLOCK to return to the main display.

About Hold Mode

•When you use COOK TIME or STOP TIME to set the oven to stop cooking, it enters Hold mode (HLd appears on the display) when it reaches the end of the set cook time. The oven keeps the temperature at 150°F (66°C) for 2 hours.

•Touch CANCEL/SECURE to turn the oven completely off.

•To avoid sickness, do not leave foods in the oven after hold mode turns off.

Using Time-Delay Cooking

NOTE

Delay-timed cooking cannot be used in Sabbath mode.

1.Adjust the racks as needed, and put the food in the oven.

2.Select the cooking mode (except the Broil modes).

8

OPERATING THE OVEN

3. Enter a cooking temperature.

If you want to turn the oven on immediately and turn off automatically at a later time, go to step 5.

4.Touch START TIME, and enter the time you want the oven to start. (For 12:35, touch 1-2-3-5. You may enter a time up to 22 hours and 59 minutes ahead of the present time. Touch the # key to change “AM“ or “PM.”)

5.(To set the stop time or cooking duration) Touch either STOP TIME or COOK TIME (otherwise go to Step 6).

COOK TIME lets you determine when the oven will stop cooking by entering the amount of time the oven is on. STOP TIME lets you determine when the oven will stop cooking by entering the clock time. Either key achieves the same result.

6.Touch START.

If you set a START TIME, the oven starts at that time.

If you entered a COOK TIME or STOP TIME, the oven cooks until the set time, and enters Hold mode.

IMPORTANT

The regular pre-heat feature (see Before Cooking, Pg 4) is unavailable for time-delay cooking. The time needed to reach the cooking temperature must be added to the cook time, which increases with the cooking temperature and amount of food.

More About Time-Delay Cooking

When the oven is in Time-Delay mode, push:

•CLOCK to view the time

•START TIME to view the set start time

•STOP TIME to view the set stop time

•COOK TIME to view the set cook time.

Using the Meat Probe

When you cook foods like roasts and poultry, taking the internal temperature is the best way to verify that the food is fully cooked. The oven comes with a meat probe that lets you cook food to the exact temperature required. The probe measures temperatures of 100°F (38°C) to 200°F (93°C).

NOTE

•The meat probe does not work in Broil and Sabbath modes. If you plug in the probe when in Broil and Sabbath modes, the probe symbol blinks, indicating an error.

•If you detach the meat probe after touching PROBE, the probe symbol blinks, and the OPn error appears on the display.

1.Insert the probe skewer in the thickest part of the prepared meat.

(The point should be at the center of the meat away from fatty areas and bone. With fowl, hold the skewer parallel to the pan, and insert it into the deepest part of the breast until the tip is 3/4 in. from the internal cavity.)

2.With the oven door closed, set a cooking mode.

The mode’s preset temperature appears on the display. If you want to change the temperature, enter it via the number pad.

3.Touch START.

4.Let the oven preheat.

The meat could over-brown if you put it in the oven during preheat mode (when PRE- appears on the display). When the oven is preheated, PRE- disappears.

5.With oven mitts, put the meat in the oven. Plug the meat probe plug in the connector inside the oven chamber.

6.Touch PROBE.

The preset probe temp (160°F/71°C) and the probe symbol appear on the display. If you want to change the probe temp, enter it via the number pad. Use the USDA Minimum Safe Cooking Temperature Chart as a guide for the meat you are cooking.

7.Touch START.

If you do not touch START, Probe mode will not activate.

IMPORTANT

When you use the meat probe, the oven controls the cook time and shows the meat temperature on the display. When the meat reaches the set temp, the oven enters Hold mode, in which the temp lowers to 150°F (66°C) for two hours to keep

the meat warm and safe for serving. To prevent sickness, do not leave food in the oven after it has turned off. Touch CANCEL/ SECURE to cancel hold mode and turn the oven completely off.

WARNING

•To avoid burn injuries, use hot pads or oven mitts to handle, connect, and detach the meat probe when the oven is hot.

•Use the handle to insert/remove the probe’s skewer and to connect it to the oven. Pulling on the cable could damage the probe. To avoid breaking the probe, ensure the food is completely defrosted before inserting the skewer.

•Never leave the probe in the oven when you are not cooking anything, especially during the self-clean cycle.

•Using a 3rd-party probe may damage the probe and/or oven.

Adjusting the Oven Temperature

Your oven was factory-calibrated to cook at the displayed temperature, but cook times may vary from your old oven.

WARNING

To ensure proper, safe operation, do not adjust the probe or self-clean offset temperatures.

IMPORTANT: Do not measure interior oven temperature with a thermometer. Opening the door compromises the reading. Also, the interior temperature varies as the elements cycle on and off.

If you are unsatisfied with the results from your oven, you can adjust the temperature offset.

Activating Sabbath Mode

Double ovens: perform this procedure for one oven, then use Steps 2 – 4 to activate Sabbath mode on the other oven.

1.Touch # key.

2.Touch BAKE or PURE CONV.

3.Touch the 0 or 2 keys repeatedly to change the preselected cooking temperature shown on the display.

4.Touch START.

The oven enters Sabbath mode and cooks in the mode you selected in Step 2.

Important Sabbath Mode Details

•CANCEL/SECURE is active so you can turn off the Sabbath feature and the oven. Double ovens: both CANCEL/ SECURE keys are active.

•When the oven is cooking, touching 2 > START tells the oven to raise the temperature by 25°F (15°C). Touching 0 > START tells the oven to lower the temperature by 25°F (15°C). In compliance with Jewish law, the bake elements are adjusted randomly when these keys are touched and no changes appear on the display. Double ovens: you must touch BAKE or PURE CONV for the oven on which you want the temperature changed before touching 0 or 2.

1.With the oven off, simultaneously touch-hold 0 and # on the number pad.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING

•Clean as instructed only the oven parts listed in this manual.

•To avoid dangerous fumes and surface/accessory damage, use only the cleaning solutions specified in this manual.

•Before cleaning, ensure the oven is off and all parts are cool.

•Do not use abrasive/corrosive cleaners or applicators (e.g., steel wool, scouring pads) anywhere on the oven except as instructed. Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous or plastic brush, or nylon cleaning pad on the oven surfaces.

•Do not use steam-clean the oven. Steam could penetrate the electrical components and short the circuit.

•Do not use sharp objects (e.g., knife, metal spatula) to remove heavy spills.

About Self-Clean Mode

•For best function and results, the oven chambers should be cleaned regularly. The self-cleaning feature heats the oven to very high temperatures to burn off surfaces deposits on the oven interiors. The self-clean process takes about 2 1/2 hours.

•Smoke emission is normal during the first few self-clean cycles. The oven also emits popping sounds during selfcleaning due to metal expanding/contracting as the oven heats and cools.

•Self-clean mode will not function if the meat probe is connected.

WARNING

•For less smoke and better efficiency, wipe up grease and other food spills with a damp cloth before self-cleaning. (See the cleaning instructions on this page.)

•Exterior oven surfaces willl be HOT during self-cleaning.

•To avoid product damage/ruin, remove the racks and any foreign object from the oven during self-cleaning.

3.Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a water-mild soap solution.

CAUTION

•Carefully clean the door gasket to avoid compromising the tight seal needed for best results and function.

•Trying to open the door after it has locked may damage the door and latch.

4.Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors during the self-clean cycle.

5.Shut the oven door, and touch Self-Clean.

6.Touch START.

The oven door locks automatically during self-cleaning to prevent personal injury from the high temperature generated during self-cleaning. If the door is ajar, an error message appears on the display. To clear the error, touch CANCEL/SECURE, and wait one minute, then close the door. When the error clears, restart the self-clean process.

The display shows the self-clean cycle status:

• The clean symbol indicates that self-clean is in process.

• The lock symbol indicates that the door is latched.

• “ON” indicates that the heating elements are on.

To stop self-cleaning, touch CANCEL/SECURE. The oven door remains locked until has cooled sufficiently. (The lock symbol disappear from the display). The oven may still be hot, so be cautious.

When self-cleaning is complete:

•The door latch releases when the inside has cooled down. The clean icon, lock icon, and ON indicator disappear from the display. The oven, however, is still HOT.

•Reinstall the convection filter before using the oven.

•A powdery residue may coat the oven floor after self- cleaning—this is normal. When the oven is cool, wipe the resideu with a damp cloth or sponge.

Using the Self-Clean Feature

IMPORTANT

•Double ovens: The control panel only allow one oven chamber to be self-cleaned at a time due to the amount of power consumed. You cannot cook in one oven when the other is in self-clean mode.

•The oven lights do not operate while the oven is in self-clean mode to protect them from damage.

•Self-clean will not work with the meat probe connected (the meat probe symbol blinks to alert you to remove the probe).

1.Remove the racks, convection filter, all cookware, the meat probe, foil, and all other loose objects from the oven chamber. (See Pg. 13 for filter cleaning instructions.

2.Wipe the interior door surfaces outside the door gasket with a vinegar-water solution, then wipe dry. Clean heavily soiled areas with a plastic scouring pad.

Self-Cleaning Tips

•If soil remains after self-cleaning, you may repeat the cycle.

•Self-clean the oven regularly to prevent soil buildup.

Setting Delayed Self-Cleaning

1.Prepare the oven for self-cleaning as instructed in the previous procedure, and close the oven door.

2.Touch Self-Clean > START TIME.

3.Enter the desired start time (e.g., touch 1-2-3-0 for 12:30). Maximum delay is 22 hr, 59 min.

4.Touch START.

DELAY appears on the display; the oven door locks. The oven will start self-cleaning at the input time.
