Convect Roast
(on some models)
Convection Roast can be used to roast meat and poultry, and
vegetables.
To Convect Roast:
Before convection roasting, position racks according to the
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. It is not necessary to
wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless
recommended in the recipe. If a recipe suggest preheating the
oven, add 15 minutes to the cook time.
1. Place food in the oven.
2. Press CONVECT.
3. Use the arrow to scroll to select CNVT ROAST.
4. Select the oven temperature using the Quickset pads.
OR
Enter the desired temperature using the number pads.
The temperature can be set between 170°F and 550°F (77°C
and 288°C).
5. Press ENTER pad to set.
6. Enter desired cook time. Enter the conventional roasting time
using the number pads.
NOTE: If Auto Convect is off, a roast time will not be required.
After 3 seconds, the oven will begin to heat. “CNVT ROAST”
will appear in the display along with “100°” or the actual oven
temperature, whichever is higher.
The temperature in the display will increase in 1° increments
until the oven reaches the preset temperature.
Cook time will begin to count down.
7. At 75% of the cooking time the oven will beep to let you know
to check food. Check food using a meat thermometer.
If food is done, take food out of oven and press CANCEL pad
to turn oven off.
If food is not done, continue roasting.
Once the set time has elapsed the oven will automatically go
into Keep Warm mode for 1 hour and then shut off. If food is
taken from the oven before the hour has elapsed, press the
CANCEL pad.
Convect Pastry
(on some models)
Convect Pastry is designed to bake pastry items such as frozen
pies, turnovers, cream puffs and puff pastry. Use 1, 2 or 3 racks
while using this feature.
1. Press CONVECT.
2. Use the arrow to scroll to select CNVT PASTRY.
3. Select the oven temperature using the Quickset pads.
OR
Enter the desired temperature using the number pads.
The temperature can be set between 195°F and 550°F (91°C
and 288°C) in 5° increments.
4. Press ENTER pad to set.
After 3 seconds, the oven will begin to preheat. “CNVT
PASTRY” and “PREHEAT” will appear in the display along
with “100°” or the actual oven temperature, which ever is
higher. AUTO will display if the Auto Convect conversion
feature is turned on.
The temperature in the display will increase in 1° increments
until the oven reaches the preset temperature. Allow about
15 minutes for the oven to preheat.
When the oven is preheated, the oven will beep, “PREHEAT”
will turn off and “CNVT PASTRY” will be displayed.
5. Press CANCEL when finished cooking.
Rapid Preheat
(on some models)
Use Rapid Preheat to decrease preheating time when using Bake
or Convect Bake. Use for all foods when baking on 1 rack.
For best results, use rack position 3 or 4 when using the Rapid
Preheat option.
For optimum baking and browning results, Rapid Preheat is not
recommended when baking on multiple racks.
To Activate:
After Bake or Convect Bake has been programmed and
activated, press RAPID PREHEAT.
“1 RACK ONLY” will display, after 10 seconds the display will
show “RAPID” and “PREHEAT.”
Preheat time is 5 minutes.
To Return to Standard Preheat:
Press RAPID PREHEAT. This will provide standard preheat.
“PREHEAT” and the selected function will be displayed.
Drying (on some models)
For best results, use a drying rack. A drying rack allows air to
circulate evenly around the food.
If you would like to purchase a drying rack, one may be ordered.
See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for the Drying
Rack Accessory Kit.
The convection fan will operate during the drying procedure.
To Set Drying:
1. Open the oven door slightly. The oven door needs to be
opened slightly to allow moisture to escape from the oven
during the drying process.
2. Place the magnetic door spacer Part Number 8010P146-60
over the plunger switch. The spacer provides a gap between
the oven frame and the oven door to allow moisture to
escape.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before
or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
