Guide to the functions 23
Bake Baking tips When baking meat or poultry, insert the grease filter in front of the fan opening. Remember to remove the grease filter from the fan opening when baking pastries. If the filter is not removed, increase the baking time. The baking tray and the roasting pan do not need to be greased or covered with parchment paper. The PerfectClean enamel finish prevents spillovers from baking onto the surface. Baked food can be easily removed.
Bake Convection Bake Recommended temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 325 °F (160 °C) This function actively circulates heated air throughout the oven cavity for a consistent baking temperature. Use this function for: – cookies, cakes, – quick breads, – souffles, – pizza, – casseroles. When using the convection function, several runner levels can be used at the same time.
Bake Surround The "Surround" function is a premium conventional baking mode. The oven heats with both the upper and lower heating elements without the convection fan. Use this function for: – meringues, – angel food cakes, – cream puffs, – cookies, cakes. Recommended temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 375 °F (180 °C) The recommended positions are the 1st or 2nd runners from the bottom. Gentle Bake With Gentle Bake the grill and the bottom heating elements will be switched on.
Roast Convection Bake This function uses the convection fan to actively circulate heated air throughout the oven. This function does not spike the oven temperature for searing. Use this function for: – chicken pieces, – small cuts of meat, – fish, – salmon, lobster tails, – meat loaf. Recommended temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 325 °F (160 °C) The recommended position is the 1st runner from the bottom. Surround "Surround" is a conventional roasting program for traditional recipes.
Roast Roasting tips – Always install the grease filter in the back of the oven before roasting. – The larger the cut of meat to be roasted, the lower the temperature that should be used. The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the outside will become crisp. – Use the roast probe for accurate cooking temperatures and best results. Roasting in a covered pot When roasting in a covered pot, increase the recipe temperature by 70 °F (20 °C).
Broil When broiling, insert the grease filter in front of the fan opening. Broil The upper heating element is used for intense heating from above. This function gives excellent browning and searing results. Use this function for: – chops, ribs, – meat, – browning dishes. Recommended temperature . . . . . . . above 500 °F (260 °C) or Broil The recommended position is the 3rd runner from the bottom. Convection Broil Hot air from the upper heating element is distributed over the food by the fan.
Broil Broiling tips – Always insert the grease filter in the back of the oven before broiling. – To ensure even cooking, it is best to broil foods of a similar thickness at the same time. Most items should be turned halfway through broiling. – To determine how far through a thick piece of meat has been cooked, press down on its surface with a spoon. If the surface presses down easily and with little resistance to the spoon, it is "rare". If there is some resistance, it is "medium".
Dehydrate/Proof Dehydrate For dehydrating fruits, vegetables and herbs use the function Convection Bake with a temperature setting of 175 °F (50 °C). A consistent low temperature and the fan maintain the ideal conditions for the long dehydration process. For best results, blot food with a paper towel before dehydrating. Foods to be dehydrated should be placed directly on the oven racks or on a drying screen (not supplied with oven).
Defrost Use the function Convection Bake with a temperature setting of 125 °F (30 °C) (warm). This allows you to defrost food at a constant temperature. Defrosting times depend on the type and weight of the food, and at what temperature it was deep-frozen. Defrosting tips – Remove the frozen food from the packaging and place it in the roasting pan or into an appropriate dish. – Meat and poultry should be fully thawed before cooking. Do not use the liquids from defrosting.
Cleaning Front of appliance It is best to clean spills from the front of the appliance immediately. Spills that remain longer may cause the surface to become discolored or changed.
