ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL 2 CONVECTION COOKING AND BAKING: The convection option is an additional feature to the regular oven cooking methods of baking and broiling. Instructions for using the convection option are included in this the instructions for setting the oven controls. Convection cooking is a method of cooking in which the heated air of the oven is circulated by a fan at the rear of the oven cavity. This fan is covered by a baffle to circulate the air uniformly,, providing even heat distribution for faster and more even cooking, baking and browning. The heated air penetrates food from every angle, sealing in natural moisture and flavors. The convection fan automatically turns off when the oven door is opened and resumes when the door is closed again. However, the heating element will stay on. Air circulation during convection cooking. The oven can be programmed to bake in the convection mode at any temperature from 140°F/60°C to 550°F/288°C. Preheating the oven for 10-12 minutes is recommended when using convection, but is not necessary when roasting or cooking casseroles. Follow the recommendations in the recipe. In several cases, depending on the texture and consistency of the food, the temperature normally used in conventional cooking should be reduced by 25°F/12°C for convection cooking. Your oven will automatically control the temperature 25°F/12°C lower than the set temperature when convection mode is selected. For example, when the oven temperature is set at 350°F/177°C, actual oven temperature will controlled at 325°F/163°C if the convection mode has been selected. MANUALLY OPERATED OVEN COOKING: To Regular Bake or Convection Bake/Roast The oven can be programmed to bake at any temperature from 140°F/60°C to 550°F/288°C. Preheating the oven is recommended when baking, but is not necessary when roasting or cooking casseroles. Follow the recommendations in the recipe. 1. Arrange oven racks while the oven is still cool. 2. Push the BAKE pad or CONV BAKE/ROAST pad. "_ _ _ °" and the word "BAKE" or "CONV BAKE" will glow in the display. 3. Push the UP ( ) or DOWN ( ) ARROW pad until desired baking temperature appears in the display. When setting the baking temperature, the temperature will start at 325°F/163°C and increase or decrease in increments of 5°F/2.5°C. After 3 seconds the oven will begin to preheat. The display will show the words "ON", "PRE" and either "BAKE" or CONV. BAKE/ROAST". The temperature shown will be 140°F/60°C or the actual oven temperature, whichever is higher. During preheating, the display will show a rise in 5°F/2.5°C increments until the programmed temperature is reached. When the oven is preheated, the oven control will beep, and turn the "ON" and "PRE" indicators words will go off. Only the word "BAKE" or "CONV BAKE" and the programmed oven temperature is displayed. The word "ON" will appear again in the display whenever the bake element is heating. Note: Preheating will take approximately 5 to 9 minutes. The word "PRE" will not appear if the actual oven temperature is within 100°F/50°C of the set temperature. There will be no beep if the "PRE" indicator word was not shown. 4. When cooking is finished, push the CANCEL pad to turn off oven. BAKING OR ROASTING -BASIC INSTRUCTIONS1. Position oven racks. 2. Push BAKE pad or CONV BAKE/ ROAST pad. 3. Push Up ( ) or DOWN ( ) ARROW pad until desired temperature is set. Note: If more than 10 seconds elapse between pushing a pad and pushing the UP ( ) or DOWN ( ) ARROW pad, the oven is not set and the display window will show the previous display. DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any other part of the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven). Setting Oven Controls for Concurrent Use If one oven (upper or lower) is first set for CONV. BAKE/ROAST, BAKE , BROIL or BAKE TIME, the second oven may be used in any mode except CLEAN. If one oven (upper or lower) is first set to CLEAN, the second oven cannot be used. ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROL 3 To recall the set temperature during preheat, push the appropriate BAKE pad or CONV BAKE/ ROAST pad.
