With temperature control off, air is circulated
by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
The fan accelerates natural defrosting of the
food without heat. To avoid sickness and
food waste, do not allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.

Heat is radiated from the bake burners in
the bottom of the oven cavity and is
circulated by the motorized fan in the rear
of the oven. It provides more even heat
distribution throughout the oven cavity for
all uses. Multiple rack use is possible for
the largest baking job. When roasting,
cool air is quickly replaced - searing meats
on the outside and retaining more juices
and natural flavor on the inside with less
shrinkage.

Exactly the same as regular broiling with
the additional benefit of air circulation by
the motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
The cool air is quickly replaced-improving
the already high performance of the
infrared broil burner.

With the temperature control on 175
o
F,
warm air is radiated from the bake burners
in the bottom of the oven cavity and is
circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of
the oven. Over a period of time, the water
is removed from the food by evaporation.
Removal of water inhibits growth of
microorganisms and retards the activity of
enzymes. It is important to remember that
dehydration does not improve the quality ,
so only fresh, top-quality foods should be
used.

To light the surface burners, turn the appropriate control knob
counter clockwise to any position. This control is both a gas valve and
an electric switch. Burners will ignite at any “on” position with the
automatic reignition system. If the flame goes out for any reason, the
burners will automatically reignite if the gas is still flowing. When gas is
permitted to flow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking.
On all surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound. If you do
not, turn off the control and check that the unit is plugged in and that
the fuse or circuit breaker is not blown or tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas
will have traveled to the burner to be able to
light. When the burner lights, turn the
burner control to any position to adjust the
flame size.
Setting the proper height for the desired
cooking process and selected utensil will
result in superior cooking performance, while
also saving time and energy.
