IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Oven use
WARNING: Ovens can produce
,
high temperatures that can cause burns.
Prevent children from touching the appliance when in use.
Use heat-resistant potholders when
placing items in the oven, turning them, or removing them from the oven. The upper heating element and oven racks can become very hot and cause burns.
To prevent burns, always place
oven racks at their desired height while the oven is cool.
Open the door carefully to allow
hot air or steam to escape before placing or removing food.
To prevent burns, allow the heating
element to cool before cleaning by hand.
The door gasket is essential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket. The door gasket should only be cleaned with a solution of warm water and soap.
Only clean parts listed in this manual.
Caution: Heating elements may be
hot even though they are not glowing. During and after use, do not let clothing or other flammable materials come in contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot.
Do not block any vent
openings.
Do not let metal objects (aluminum
foil, metal pans) or the meat probe come in contact with the heating element.
Do not slide pots or pans on the
oven floor. This could scratch and damage the surface.
Do not lean, sit, or place heavy
items on the open oven door.
Do not heat unopened containers
of food in the oven, pressure may build up and cause them to explode.
Never add water to food on a hot
tray or pan, or directly onto food in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalds.
5
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This oven must only be used for
cooking. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc. Fumes or vapors given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials could be hazardous.
Never store flammable liquids and
materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces.
When baking frozen pizzas or pies,
place them on the rack lined with parchment paper. Do not use the baking tray or the roasting pan for frozen foods with a large surface area. The tray or pan could become warped and difficult to remove from the oven when hot. Frozen food like french fries, fish sticks, chicken fingers etc. can be baked on the baking tray.
General notes
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the oven. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Children should not be left alone or
unattended in an area where an oven is in use. Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be injured.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when cooking with oils or fats, they are a fire hazard if overheated.
Do not use water on grease fires!
Smother the fire with a properly rated dry chemical or foam fire extinguisher.
Be aware of loose fitting or hanging
garments while operating the oven, they present a fire hazard.
Do not use the oven to heat the
room.
Make certain that the power cords
of small appliances do not come in contact with or get caught in the oven door.
Use only dry, heat resistant
potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oils. Do not substitute towels or other bulky items for potholders.
It is recommended to cover all
cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the interior of the oven.
Be careful when using alcoholic
beverages like rum, whiskey, wine etc. for baking or roasting. The alcohol evaporates at high temperatures but may in rare circumstances combust on the hot heating elements.

Baking tips
When baking meat or poultry, insert the grease filter in front of the fan opening. Remember to remove the grease filter from the fan opening when baking pastries. If the filter is not removed, increase the baking time.
The baking tray and the roasting pan do not need to be greased or covered with parchment paper. The PerfectClean enamel finish prevents spillovers from baking onto the surface. Baked food can be easily removed.
Use parchment paper only for dough with a high egg white content, e.g. biscuits, meringues, macaroons.

Roasting tips
Always install the grease filter in the
back of the oven before roasting.
The larger the cut of meat to be
roasted, the lower the temperature
that should be used.
The roasting process will take a little
longer, but the meat will be cooked
evenly and the outside will become
crisp.
Use the roast probe for accurate
cooking temperatures and best
results.
Roasting in a covered pot
When roasting in a covered pot, increase the recipe temperature by 70 °F.
Season the meat and place it in the pot. Add some butter, margarine or a little oil and about ½ cup of water when roasting a large piece of meat or roasting poultry with a high fat content.
Roast
Roasting on the rack
Use the rack with the roasting pan inserted below it. Add a little oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on top to help retain moisture. Place a little water in the roasting pan below the meat to catch drippings.
Roasting poultry
For crispy skin, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking with salt water.

Broil
When broiling, insert the grease filter in front of the fan opening.
Broil
The upper heating element is used for intense heating from above. This function gives excellent browning and searing results.
Use this function for:
chops, ribs,
meat,
– – browning dishes. Recommended
temperature . . . . . above 500 °F or Broil
The recommended position is the 3 runner from the bottom.
Convection Broil
rd
Hot air from the upper heating element is distributed over the food by the fan. This enables a lower temperature than conventional broiling to be used.
Use this function for: –
thick pieces of meat, –
London broil. –
poultry, whole birds, –
tied roast, e.g. pork loin, beef
tenderloin, etc., –
kebobs. The recommended temperatures are
400 °F - 460 ° F. The recommended position is the 1
runner from the bottom.

st
Broiling tips
Always insert the grease filter in the
back of the oven before broiling.
To ensure even cooking, it is best to
broil foods of a similar thickness at
the same time. Most items should be
turned halfway through broiling.
To determine how far through a thick
piece of meat has been cooked,
press down on its surface with a
spoon.
If the surface presses down easily
and with little resistance to the
spoon, it is "rare".
If there is some resistance, it is
"medium".
If there is great resistance, it is
"well done".

Dehydrate/Proof
Dehydrate
For dehydrating fruits, vegetables and herbs use the function Convection Bake with a temperature setting of 175 °F.
A consistent low temperature and the fan maintain the ideal conditions for the long dehydration process.
For best results, blot food with a paper towel before dehydrating.
Foods to be dehydrated should be placed directly on the oven racks or on a drying screen (not supplied with oven).
Proof
Use the function Convection Bake with a temperature setting of 125 °F (warm).
The warm environment will allow you to effectively proof dough. This function maintains a low temperature perfect for yeast to rise.
Place the dough in a large bowl on the oven rack positioned at the lowest runner level. Keep the oven door closed during this process.
30
Use the function Convection Bake with a temperature setting of 125 °F (warm).
This allows you to defrost food at a constant temperature.
Defrosting times depend on the type and weight of the food, and at what temperature it was deep-frozen.
Defrosting tips
Remove the frozen food from the
packaging and place it in the
roasting pan or into an appropriate
dish. – Meat and poultry should be fully
thawed before cooking. Do not use
the liquids from defrosting. – Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is soft enough to
absorb herbs and seasoning.
Defrost
– Cook all food immediately after
defrosting.
