circulates air while the oven cooks. The circulating
air provides even browning and faster baking and
broiling times.
When the oven is set to standard mode, the
CONVECTION/STANDARD switch next to
electronic range control is pressed towards
“STANDARD” and does not glow. To set oven to
EvenAir™ Convection Cooking, press switch
towards “CONVECTION”. The switch glows and the
oven fan operates. When cooking is complete,
press switch towards “STANDARD” to turn fan
off.
Bake
Upper and lower elements operate during bake. Upper
element is only used to heat oven quickly and brown
top of food. Bake can be used to cook foods which are
normally baked. Oven must be preheated.
Broil
Upper element operates during broil. Broil can be used
to cook foods which are normally broiled. Preheating is
not required when using broil. All foods should be
turned at least once except fish, which does not need
to be turned.
EvenAir™Convection Bake
Upper element, lower element, and fan operate during
convection bake. Upper element is only used to heat
oven quickly and brown top of food. Convection bake
should be used for cooking casseroles and roasting
meats. Oven should be preheated for best results when
using convection bake. Pans do not need to be
staggered. Cooks approximately 25% quicker than
bake.
Convection Broil
Upper element and fan operate when using convection
broil. Convection broil can be used to cook foods that
are normally broiled. Oven does not require preheating
when using convection broil. Cooks approximately 25%
quicker than broil.
Dehydrate
Uses convection fan with oven at low temperature
(approx. 170ºF). Dehydration is an excellent way to
preserve fresh foods.
