SETTING THE OVEN FOR ROAST & HOLD
1. Press the ROAST & HOLD button to select Roast & Hold.
2. Set the flrst stage Temperature and the Cook Time as described in: MANUALLY SETTING THE
TEMPERATURE AND COOK TIME. Press START/STOP to begin cooking.
3. The HOLD Temperature is preset by the computer control at 150°F (66°C).
4. The LOW FAN SPEED is present during Roast & Hold. Use Roast & Hold to select LOW FAN
SPEED.
ROAST & HOLD OPERATION
Roast & Hold cooks the product in two stages. During First Stage Cooking, the oven temperature is
regulated by the Temperature setpoint and the Time setting. After the time counts down to 00:00, Second
Stage Cooking begins. During Second Stage Cooking, the heating elements are off as the temperature in
the oven declines to the Hold Temperature. The doors should remain closed during Second Stage Cooking.
When the Hold temperature is reached, the display ‡ashes HOLD. Temperature in the oven will be
maintained at the Hold temperature until the oven is turned off.

PROPER UTENSILS

The use of proper utensils can enhance oven operation. Medium and lightweight pans allow the product
to warm faster. Roast meats in shallow pans deep enough to hold all juices yet allow free air circulation.

OPERATING HINTS

When using the convection oven for the flrst time with a particular food, check the degree of doneness
periodically before the suggested time has elapsed. This will ensure the desired doneness is achieved.
Record your temperature and time settings for various products. The convection oven can provide consistent
and repeatable results.
The convection oven is faster than conventional deck-type ovens; temperature settings are lower and
cook times are shorter. Since recipes and foods are subject to many variations and tastes, the guidelines
regarding Times and Temperatures in this manual are SUGGESTIONS ONLY. Experiment with your food
products to determine the cooking temperatures and times that give you the best results.
NOTE: For a more even bake in electric deep ovens, place the pans horizontally in the center of the oven
rack and decrease the suggested cooking temperature by 50°F (10°C).
