speedcooking
tips. . .
You must preheat your oven.
Put the food in the oven after the preheat beep
when the oven control displays “Put Food In
Oven” and then press START. You must press
the START key after placing the food in the
oven to start the speedcook mode.
When choosing a speedcook food category,
refer to the chart on page 16.
All frozen foods should be speedcooked using
the FROZENFOODS category.
When baking potatoes, the recommended
cooking temperature is 350°F and cooking time
is 90 minutes for medium sized potatoes. Add
an additional 15–30 minutes for large potatoes
or when baking more than four potatoes.
In general, when cooking meats wrapped in
dough or refrigerated dough product, use the
Biscuit/Roll or BakedGoods category.
For recipes using a large quantity of cheese,
milk and/or eggs, use the BakedGoods category.
Larger amounts of food or multiple racks of
food may require additional time. Check food
doneness as prompted and continue cooking
as needed.
Items such as appetizers, cookies, biscuits
and rolls can be speed baked on multiple racks.
Cooking time may increase slightly for some
foods, but since two or three racks of food are
being cooked at the same time, the overall
result is substantial time saved.
When cooking multiple items or pans, leave
space between them for maximum air circulation.
Cakes and quick breads (banana, zucchini or
pumpkin bread) are not recommended for
multiple rack speed baking. Place cakes side-by-
side on one rack if speed baking. When using
more than one rack to cook these foods, use
CONV MULTI mode. See Using the convection
modes section.
Meats/Poultry
Cooking times will vary depending on the cut
of meat. Check for doneness at minimum time.
Note: Meats will continue to cook and internal
temperatures will rise after they are removed
from the oven (standing time).
Use the broiler pan and grid provided with
your oven for best results.
As in a conventional oven, aluminum foil
may be used to shield food—to prevent
overbrowning or overcooking (i.e., placing
small strips of foil on tips of wings and legs of
poultry). Also, foil covers may be tented over
food (i.e., large frozen casseroles) toward the
end of their cook time to prevent overbrowning
or overcooking. Make sure that the foil is
securely attached to the food. However, large
amounts of foil or fully enclosing food in foil
blocks the microwave energy, which eliminates
time savings.
Do not use oven thermometers, meat
thermometers or wire twist-ties in the oven
while speedcooking.
Pop-up thermometers in your meat may be
inaccurate. Check the temperature of the meat
with a thermometer after removing the meat
from the oven.
For best results, speed bake turkeys unstuffed.

positions
for speed
baking. . .
If cooking on one rack, place food so that it is
approximately centered in the oven.
Rack Positions and Examples
C Cookies, pizza, pie, muffins, cakes, biscuits,
casseroles
B Loaves of bread, bundt cakes, meat loaf,
small and medium roasts, whole chicken
A Very tall items: turkey, large roasts,

If cooking on two racks, use rack positions A
and D to provide lots of space between items
for optimal results.
If cooking on three racks, use rack positions A,
