High Altitude Baking
When baking at high altitudes, in either BAKE,
CONVECTION or CONVECTION ROAST mode,
recipes and baking times vary. For information to
adjust recipes, write the Extension Service, Colorado
State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There
may be a cost for the bulletins. Specify the type of
information you want (example: cakes, cookies,
breads, etc.).
Condensation
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to
evaporate from the food during any cooking process.
The amount depends on the moisture content of the
food. The moisture may condense on any surface
cooler than the inside of the oven.
Electronic Temperature Sensor
Your new Thermador
®
oven has an electronic
temperature sensor which accurately maintains the
temperature selected. Your previous oven may have
had a mechanical thermostat that drifted to a higher
temperature with age. You may experience an
adjustment period when cooking your favorite recipes
with your new Thermador
®
convection oven.
Preheating the Oven
For best results, preheat the oven when using the
BAKE, CONVECTION or CONVECTION ROAST
modes.
• Place racks in the oven before preheating.
• Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe or
food.
• The oven is preheated when the oven chimes and
the selected temperature is displayed.
• Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven
as quickly as possible to minimize the loss of heat.
For Best Results
• Use Baking, Roasting and Broiling Charts found
on Pages 16 to 18, 20 to 21 and 24 for suggested
rack level and cooking time.
• Minimize opening the door.
• Use TIMER 1 or TIMER 2.
• Use the interior oven light to view the food.
• Store the broiler pan or other utensils outside
the oven. An extra pan, without food, affects the
browning and cooking.
• Use pans that give you the desired browning:
- For tender, golden brown crusts, use light
nonstick/anodized or shiny metal utensils.
- For brown, crisp crusts, use dark nonstick/
anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass
bakeware.
CAUTION: Never use aluminum foil to cover
the oven racks or to line the oven. It can damage
the oven if it touches the heating element or
damage the oven liner if heat is trapped under
it.

IF CONNECTING TO 208/120 VOLTS
This oven can be connected to a 208/120 volt or
240/120 volt power source. When connected
to a 208/120 volt power source, optimum
results are achieved in Bake, Convection Bake
and Convection by preheating the oven. Pre-
heat times may be slightly longer. Do not
preheat the oven in Broil. All timings may be
longer than those shown in the Baking Charts.
The Self Clean mode may need a longer time
than with 240/120 volt connections, depending
on the amount of spill.
