Speed Bake TM Cooking System (some models)

Speed Bake TM Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. Italso gives better baking results when using two racks at the same time.

Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with Speed Bake TM Cooking System are juicer. Poultry is crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster and more evenly with Speed Bake TM Cooking System.

Benefits of Speed Bake TM Cooking System:

Foods cook up to 30% faster, saving time and energy. Two racks can be used with more even cooking and browning. No special pans or bakeware needed.

General Cooking Instructions:

1. To convert baking times from normal recipes to Speed Bake times, start with a 30% reduction intime and increase the time

until desired doneness is obtained. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food.

2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking with Speed Bake, except with items such as cakes, cookies, biscuits, breads,

etc.

3. When using two racks at the same time, place them in positions 1 and 3 for the best results.

4. When baking cakes with Speed Bake, set temperature 25°F (13°C) degrees lower than the recommended setting for best

results.

To Set the Control for Speed Baking: See Instructions above under "To Set or Change the Temperature for Normal or Speed Baking".

Broil

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. Be sure you center the broiler pan directly under

the broil element for best results. Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. Position the rack as needed.

The broiler pan and itsinsert allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without itsinsert. DO

NOT cover the insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off the

oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

To set for broiling:

1. Place theinsert on the broiler pan, then place the food on the insert.DO NOT use the pan without the insert or cover the insertwith aluminum foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

2. Arrange the oven rack while oven isstill cool. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler element/burner. Electric Oven: Make sure the oven door is in the broil stop position (see Figure 2). Gas Oven: Close the oven door. For optimum browning, preheat broil burner for 3-4 minutes before adding food.

3. Press the BROIL pad. "- -" will appear in the display.

4. Press _ or V until the desired broil setting level appears in the display.

Press A for Hi broil or V for LO broil. Most foods may be broiled at the Hi broil setting. Select the LO broil setting to avoid excess browning or drying of foods that should be cooked to the well-done stage.

5. Broil on one side until food isbrowned. Turn and broil food on 2nd side. Note: Always pull the rack out to the stop position before turning or removing

food.

6. When broiling isfinished, press the CLEAR/OFF pad.
