Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat content
of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand,
contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best
results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked with
excellent results using multiple racks.
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall result
is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits and
other quickbreads give very good results with
multi-rack baking.
To cook food on more than one rack in
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE MULTI.
For multi-rack baking, place the flat rack in the

Introduction
Convection Fan Operation
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air
over, under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly distributed
throughout the oven. As a result, foods are
HYHQO\FRRNHGDQGEURZQHG³RIWHQLQOHVVWLPH
with convection heat.
NOTE: To maximize cooking evenness, the fan
is designed to rotate in both directions, with a
pause in between. This is normal.
The convection fan shuts off when the oven
door is opened. DO NOTleave the door open
for long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the
convection heating element.

Adapting Recipes…
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
When convection baking, the Auto Recipe™
Conversion feature automatically reduces
the set regular baking temperature by the
recommended 25°F. See Auto Recipe™Conversion
in the Special Features section.
Use pan size recommended.
Some package instructions for frozen
casseroles or main dishes have been
developed using commercial convection ovens.
For best results in this oven, preheat the oven
and use the temperature on the package.

Cookware for Convection Cooking
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.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers
that are recommended for use in regular
baking can also be used for convection baking,
but should not be used at temperatures higher
than the temperature recommended by the
cookware manufacturer. Plastic cookware that
is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F can
also be used.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your
convection oven. However, metal pans
heat the fastest and are recommended for
convection baking.
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan
with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well
around food in a pan with high sides.
When baking cookies, you will get
the best results if you use a flat
cookie sheet instead of a pan with
low sides.
Using the convection oven.
Good for large tender cuts of meat,
uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated air
evenly over and around the food. Meat and
poultry are browned on all sides as if they were
cooked on a rotisserie. The heated air seals in
juices quickly for a moist and tender product
while, at the same time, creating a rich golden
brown exterior.
When you are convection roasting it is
important that you use a broiler pan and grid
for best convection roasting results. The pan is
used to catch grease spills
and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters.

Slow Cook Guide Guideline Tips
The slow cook program uses a complex series of
temperature cycling to obtain the best results. For this
reason, it is recommended that the slow cook program
be allowed to run without canceling or restarting.
Restarting the slow cook feature while it is in progress
may result in overcooked meat.
For juicy and tender meat, choose cuts of meat such
as chuck roast or a boneless blade roast. Leaner cuts
of meat, such as top round, are drier and may need
additional liquid.
Use only glass and ceramic dishes. Metal pots and
pans tend to transfer the heat into the foods
too quickly.
Match the quantity of food to the size pan. Fill the pan
about 3/4 full for best results. Too large a pot allows
the steam to escape, causing foods to dry out.
Always cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil.
A wide range of recipes may be used in the slow
cook feature. For best results some adjustments
may need to be made. For smaller sized recipes,
begin checking at minimum time. For large recipes
or when doubling recipes, foods may be cooked for
longer periods of time.
When the slow cook feature completes, the oven will
automatically switch to “warm” mode. If additional
slow cook time is desired, this warm mode may be
used to obtain the extra time.

time as needed.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Food should be kept hot in its cooking
container or transferred to a heat-safe
serving dish.
For moist foods, cover them with an
oven-safe lid or aluminum foil.
Fried or crisp foods do not need to be
covered, but can become too dry if warmed
for too long.
Repeated opening of the door allows the hot
air to escape and the food to cool.
Allow extra time for the temperature inside
the oven to stabilize after adding items.
With large loads it may be necessary to cover
some of the cooked food items.
Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing
containers in the oven.
Do not use plastic containers, lids or plastic
wrap.
CAUTION Plastic containers, lids or
plastic wrap will melt if placed in the oven.
Melted plastic may not be removable and is not

To avoid lowering the oven temperature
and lengthening proofing time, do not
open the oven door unnecessarily.
Check bread products early to avoid
over-proofing.
NOTE:
Do not use the proofing mode for warming
food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven
temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at
safe temperatures. Use the Warm feature to keep
hot food warm.

The oven doors must be closed and all controls
set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Touch the SELF CLEAN HI/LO pad once
for a 5-hour clean time or twice for a
3-hour clean time.
A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended
for use when cleaning small, contained
spills. A self-clean time of 5 hours is
recommended for a dirtier oven.
If a time other than 5 hours or 3 hours is
needed, use the number pads and enter
the desired clean time.
You can change the clean time to any time
between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on
how dirty your oven is.
Touch the START pad.
The upper and lower oven doors lock
automatically. The display will show the clean
time remaining. It will not be possible to open
the oven doors until the temperature drops
below the lock temperature and LOCKED goes
off in the control display.
When LOCKED goes off, you will be able to
open the doors.
The word LOCKED will flash and the word
door will display if you set the clean cycle
and forget to close the oven doors.
To stop a clean cycle, touch the CLEAR/OFF
pad. When LOCKED goes off, indicating
the ovens have cooled below the locking
temperature, you will be able to open the
doors.
You can set a clean cycle in both ovens at the
same time; however, they will not self-clean
at the same time. The last oven set will
automatically delay its start until the end of the
first oven’s clean cycle.
When either oven is set to self-clean, both oven
doors will lock. The ovens cannot be used when
one of the ovens is set to self-clean.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom.
NOTE: Do not attempt to lift the
heating element. Doing so could
damage the element.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood
during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove any broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
NOTE:
If your oven is equipped with shiny, silver-

bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
