Cookware for Convection Cooking  
Paper and Plastic  
Before using your convection oven, check to see  
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in  
the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave  
space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not  
touch each other or the walls of the oven.  
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are  
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in  
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is

CONVECTION BAKING  
Adapting Recipes for Convection Baking  
Check foods for doneness at the minimum  
suggested cooking time.  
As a general rule, reduce the temperature by  
for Convection Baking. For more specific instructions,  
follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook.  
Use pan size recommended in the recipe.  
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake  
time of over 15 minutes.  
For more information on adapting recipes, see the  
Convection Cookbook.  
Multi-Shelf Baking  
For 2-shelf baking, place the offset shelf in the  
bottom (A) shelf position. Place the straight shelf in  
the third (C) shelf position.  
Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout  
the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results  
on 2 or shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may  
increase cook times slightly for some foods but the  
overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,  
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf  
in the lowest position (A), you will need to use  
caution when pulling the shelf out. We recommend  
that you pull the shelf out several inches and then,  
using 2 pot holders, pull the shelf out by holding the  
sides of it. The offset shelf is low and you could be  
burned if you place you hand in the middle of the  
shelf and pull all the way out.

cooked in a convection oven are dark brown on the outside and  
tender and juicy on the inside. In most cases, cooking time will be less  
when using the Convection Roast feature. Sometimes cooking time is  
reduced by 10 minutes per hour.  
To make sure the meat is cooked the way you want it, we recommend  
using the temperature probe provided with the oven.  
The special roasting rack and pan allow heated air to circulate over  
and under the meat. This allows the meat to brown on all sides.  
Adapting Recipes for Convection Roasting  
Use the special roasting rack with the broiler pan  
and grid.  
Use the temperature recommended in the Convection  
Roasting Guide.  
For more information on adapting recipes, see the  
Convection Cookbook.  
Preheating is not necessary.  
Check foods for doneness at the minimum  
suggested time.  
Convection Roasting Rack  
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on the lowest  
shelf position (A) on the offset shelf.  
you are convection roasting you will use the  
pan and grid and the special roasting rack.  
The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid  
is used to prevent grease spatters. The rack holds  
the meat.  
This rack allows the heated air to circulate under  
the meat and increase browning on the underside  
of the meat or poultry.  
1. Place the offset shelf in the lowest shelf position (A).  
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf in  
the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution  
when pulling the rack out. We recommend that you  
pull the shelf out several inches and then, using 2 pot  
holders, pull the shelf out by holding the sides of it.  
The shelf is low and you could be burned if you place  
your hand in the middle the shelf and pull all the  
way out.  
2. Place the broiler pan and grid on the roasting stand.  
Place the roasting rack on the stand.  
3. Place the meat on the special roasting rack. .  
See the Convection Roasting with the Probe section  
to insert the probe correctly.  
NOTE: It is important that the broiler pan and grid  
be used with the roasting rack and stand for best  
convection roasting results.

is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper broil unit  
m the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these  
directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.  
1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut  
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart.  
If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer  
about 1/8 inch thick.  
6. Press the INCREASE pad for HI Broil or press  
the DECREASE pad for LO Broil.  
To change from HI  
to LO Broil, press  
the DECREASE pad once.  
2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.  
Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler  
pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough  
to catch on fire.  
NOTE: Use LO Broil to cook foods such as  
poultry or thick pork chops thoroughly without  
over browning them.  
7. Turn the food only once during broiling.  
Time the foods for the first side according to the  
Broiling Guide.  
3. Position a flat shelf on the recommended shelf  
position as suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most  
broiling is done on C position, but if your oven is  
connected to 208 volts, you may wish to use a  
higher position,  
Turn the food, then use the times given for the  
second side as a guide to the preferred doneness.  
(Where 2 thicknesses and times are given together,  
use the first times given for the thinnest food.)  
4. Leave the door open to  
broil stop position. The  
door stays open by itself,  
yet the proper temperature  
is maintained in the oven.  
,
.
8. When broiling is finished press the  
pad. Serve the food immediately, and leave the  
pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for  
easiest cleaning.  
.
m
5. Press the BROIL pad.  
Use of Aluminum Foil  
You can use aluminum foil to line  
your broiler pan and broiler grid.  
However, you must mold the foil  
to the grid and cut slits in it  
Without the slits, the foil will  
prevent fat and meat juices from  
draining to the broiler pan. The  
juices could become hot enough to  
catch on fire. If you do not cut the  
slits, you are frying, not broiling.  
just like the grid.  
Questions and Answers  
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a  
grid in the pan?  
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown  
as they should?  
A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the  
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the  
pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected  
by the grid and stay cooler, thus preventing  
excessive spatter and smoking.  
In some areas, the power (voltage) to the range  
may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil unit  
for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan with  
food in oven. Check to see if you are using the  
recommended shelf position. Broil for longest  
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.  
Turn food only once during broiling.  
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?  
A. No. Salt draws out

3. For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the  
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise  
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the  
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent  
piercing the meat and losing juices.

NOTE:  
Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and  
the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back

paper towel rolls to prevent  
pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the

may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the

The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap and  
water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the  
temperature probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn  
spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.  
Do not immerse the temperature probe in water.  
Do not store the temperature probe in the oven.  
Oven Light Replacement  
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,  
disconnect the electrical power for your oven at  
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the  
plug. Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool  
completely before removing or replacing them. When  
in use, light bulbs can become warm enough to break  
if touched with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning,  
avoid touching warm lights with cleaning cloths if the  
light cover is removed.  
The oven light is covered with a glass removable  
cover which is held in place with a wire. Remove the  
oven door, desired, to reach the cover easily.  
remove:  
your hand under the cover so it doesn’t fall  
when released. With fingers of the same hand, firmly  
push back the wire until it clears the cover. Lift off  
the cover.  
DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS.  
Replace bulb with 40-watt home appliance bulb.  
To replace cover:  
Place it into the groove of the light receptacle. Pull the  
wire forward to the center of cover until it snaps in  
place. When in place, the wire holds the cover firmly.  
Be certain the wire is in the depression in the center of  
the cover.  
Connect the electrical power to the oven.

CARE AND CLEANING  
Control Panel  
It’s a good idea to wipe the  
control panel after each use.  
Clean with mild soap and water  
or vinegar and water, rinse with  
clean water and polish dry with  
a soft cloth.  
Do not use abrasive cleansers,  
strong liquid cleaners, plastic  
scouring pads or oven cleaners  
on the control panel—they will  
damage the finish. A 50/50  
solution of vinegar and hot water  
works  
Glass Surfaces  
To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass cleaner.  
Rinse and polish with a dry cloth. Do not allow the  
water or cleaner to run down inside openings in  
the top of the oven door while cleaning.  
Painted Surfaces  
Painted surfaces include the outside oven door and control panel.  
Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.  
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing powders, steel wool  
or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.
