Operation
Settings and Functions
CONV BROIL
(Convection Broil)
The top element operates
at full power. This
function is exactly the
same as regular broiling
with the additional
benefit of air circulation
by the motorized fan in
the rear of the oven. Smoke is reduced since the
airflow also reduces peak temperatures on the food.
Use this setting for broiling thick cuts of meats.
CONV ROAST
(Convection Roast)
The convection element
runs in conjunction with
the inner and outer broil
elements. This transfer
of heat (mainly from the
convection element)
seals moisture inside
large roasts. Use this setting for whole turkeys,
whole chickens, hams, etc.
CONVECTION DEFROST
This oven can defrost
frozen food. With the
temperature control off,
a motorized fan in the
rear of the oven circulates
air. This fan accelerates
natural defrosting of the
food without heat.
CONVECTION
DEHYDRATE
This oven is designed
not only to cook, but
also to dehydrate fruits
and vegetables. With this
function, a motorized fan
in the rear of the oven
circulates warm air. 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 quality; only fresh, top-quality foods should
be dehydrated in your oven.
Self-Clean
This oven features an
automatic pyrolytic
self-cleaning cycle.
During this cycle, the
oven reaches elevated
temperatures in order
to burn off soil and
deposits. An integral
smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with
the soil burn off. A powder ash residue is left in the
bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean
cycle. The door latch is automatically activated after
selecting the self-clean setting. The latch ensures
that the door cannot be opened while the oven
interior is at clean temperatures.
WARNING
This oven features a self-cleaning cycle. During this
cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures
in order to burn off soil and deposits. A powder
ash residue is left in the bottom of the oven
after completion of the self-clean cycle.
Note: DO NOT
use commercial oven cleaners
inside the oven. Use of these cleaners can
produce hazardous fumes or can damage the
porcelain finishes.
DO NOT
line the oven with
aluminum foil or other materials. These items
can melt or burn during a self-clean cycle,
causing permanent damage to the oven.
CAUTION
DO NOT
touch the exterior portions of the
oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since
some parts become extremely hot to the touch!
During the first few times the self-cleaning feature
is used, there may be some odor and smoking
from the “curing” of the binder in the high-density
insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is
thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear. During
subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may sense an
odor characteristic of high temperatures.
KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL VENTED DURING
THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.
