AQs About Turbo Convection Baking

chamber to better heat the food.
How do I adjust the time for Turbo Convection Bake?
A

Positioning Rack
To accommodate a wide variety of foods the oven has two
rack positions. (See Figure 3)
Positioning of the rack will depend on the size of the food
and desired browning.
Before removing the rack allow the unit to cool.
For best toast and pizza results, position the rack in
the upper rack position.
PLEASE NOTE – The oven rack may tilt downward causing
food to shift when the rack is pulled out, proceed with caution.
Positioning Pan
To accommodate a wide variety of foods the oven has two pan positions. The pan can
be placed on top of the rack or inserted into the guide rails below the rack. (See Figure Below)
Before removing the pan allow the unit to cool.
Positioning of the oven pan will depend on the desired cooking method. For baking, place
the pan on top of one of the racks. For grilling or broiling, insert the pan into the guide rails

SOLUTION
You may have to adjust the time and
temperature to desired taste.
Because your countertop oven is smaller
than your regular oven, it will heat up
faster and generally cook in shorter
periods of time.

Page English-4. Rack may need to be
adjusted to accommodate food type.
Refer to “Cleaning Your countertop
oven” Section, Page English-5.
Plug the countertop oven into a 120-volt
AC electrical outlet.
Set timer knob and temperature knob to
desired setting. Both must be turned on
to operate the countertop oven.
When toasting, make sure the oven is
not
set to broil setting.
Be certain that function is as desired.
POTENTIAL CAUSE
Incorrect temperature or
time setting

Food build-up inside
oven, on heating elements
or in crumb tray.
