Turn meats once during cook time. Fish does not need
▯
to be turned.
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex); it cannot tolerate
▯
the high temperature.
Refer to the Meat and Poultry cooking chart for
▯
recommended rack positions and cooking time.
Broil
Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.
The Broil Mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender
cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be
used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with
the door closed.
Tips:
Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do no preheat for more
▯
than 5 minutes.
Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" (2 cm) thick.
▯
Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent
▯
sticking.
Use a broil pan and grid or a deep pan with a metal
▯
rack for broiling.
Turn meats once during cook time. Fish does not need
▯
to be turned.
When top browning casseroles, use only metal or
▯
glass ceramic dishes such as CorningWare.
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex); it cannot tolerate
▯
the high temperature.
Refer to the Meat and Poultry cooking chart for
▯
recommended rack positions and cooking time.
Pizza
Use Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza. During this
mode, heat from the upper and lower elements is
circulated throughout the oven cavity by the convection
fan.
Tips:
There may be a slight decrease in baking time. Check
▯
before minimum package time.
When baking a frozen pizza:
▯
For crispy crust, place the pizza directly on the rack.
▯
For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.
▯
When proofing pizza dough, coat dough with olive oil
▯
and cover it in a bowl tightly with plastic wrap to
prevent crust formation.
Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.
▯
If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally
▯
with cornmeal to help transfer the dough to the pan.
If par baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough
▯
with a fork before baking.

Speed Convection
Speed Convection uses all heating elements with the
convection fan to evenly distribute heat throughout the
oven cavity. This mode is recommended for frozen
convenience foods and does not require preheating.
When using Speed Convection in a double oven, only
one cavity is available at a time.
By cooking with Speed Convection you can decrease
your overall cooking time since preheating is not
necessary. Foods are evenly browned and crisp on the
outside.
Tips:
Cook all foods in a cold, non-preheated oven. The
▯
food will still be done in package time.
Follow the package instructions for time and
▯
temperature.
Frozen foods sold in microwaveable containers should
▯
not be used.
Cook food items on rack 4 unless directed otherwise
▯
by the food manufacturer.
Slow Roast
Slow Roast uses the upper and lower elements at low
temperatures to gently cook meat. Meat will be evenly
cooked throughout.
This mode is best suited for large boneless cuts of meat.
Place cookware in the oven and allow the oven to heat
up for about 10 minutes. Sear meat on the cooktop on all
sides, then place into the preheated cookware.
Dehydrate
Dehydrate dries heat with a third element behind the
back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout
the oven by the convection fan.
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as
fruits, vegetables and herbs. The oven stays on 24 hours
before shutting off automatically.
Tips:
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 150°F (65°C). Dry
▯
herbs at 100°F (40°C). Refer to the Dehydrate chart
for examples.
Drying times vary depending on the moisture and
▯
sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the
amount being dried and the humidity in the air. Check
food at minimum drying time.
Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used
▯
simultaneously.
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
