Paper and Plastic  
Before using your convection oven, check to see  
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in  
the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave  
space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not  
touch each other or the walls of the oven.  
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are  
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in  
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is

“When baking cookies, you will get the best results  
if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with  
low sides.  
Metal and Glass  
Any type of cookware will work in your convection  
oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are  
recommended for convection baking.  
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should  
use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well  
around food in a pan with high sides.  
Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster

Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles  
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens  
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10  
minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the food  
in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat  
from escaping.  
Pan Placement  
Baking Pans  
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be  
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking  
results will be better if baking pans are centered as  
much as possible rather than being placed to the front  
or to the back of the oven.  
Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the  
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.  
Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat, resulting in a  
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.  
Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting  
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and  
cookies require this type of pan.  
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the  
oven. Allow 1- to 1 X-inch space between pans as  
as from the back of the oven, the door and the sides.  
Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking  
in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to

Guides  
When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions  
for the best baking results.  
Cookies  
When baking cookies,  
cookie sheets (without  
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked  
in a jelly roll pan (short sides  
around) may have  
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.  
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the  
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover a  
shelf with a large cookie sheet.  
For best results during regular baking, use only  
one cookie sheet in the oven at a time.  
Also see the Multi-Shelf baking section.  
Cakes  
Pies  
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause  
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.  
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe  
recommended will usually be crisper, thinner and  
drier than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than  
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may  
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size  
used is the one recommended.

REGULAR ROASTING WITH THE PROBE  
See the Regular Roasting Guide.  
Correct Placement of the Temperature Probe  
Use the handles of the probe and plug when  
inserting and removing them from the meat and  
wall outlet. Do not use tongs to pull on the cable  
when removing the probe—they might damage it.  
TO AVOID BREAKING THE PROBE, MAKE  
SURE FOOD 1S COMPLETELY DEFROSTED  
BEFORE INSERTING.  
A
temperature probe has been provided for use in your  
new oven. This probe is designed to withstand high  
temperatures. Temperature provided with other  
products, such as those used for microwave ovens,  
may not be designed to withstand high temperatures.  
Use of probes other than the one provided with this  
product may result in damage to the probe.  
Never leave your probe inside the oven during a  
cleaning cycle.  
Cable  
Probe  
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal  
food temperature is the best test for doneness. The  
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting  
by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.  
When the internal temperature of the food reaches the  
temperature you set, the oven automatically shuts off.  
Plug  
The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at  
one end and a plug at the other end that goes into the  
on the oven wall.

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or  
on the broiler pan grid, follow these directions for  
proper probe place-merit.

Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a  
meat thermometer?  
A. is not necessary to preheat your oven.  
A. Checking the finished internal temperature at  
the completion of cooking  
is recommended  
Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips  
that would help me cook it more evenly?  
if you did not use the probe while cooking.  
Temperatures are shown in the Regular Roasting  
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,  
or buy rolled roasts.  
Guide. For roasts over 8  
check with  
thermometer at half-hour intervals after half  
the cooking time has passed.  
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when  
roasting a turkey?  
Q. Why is my roast crumbling when try to  
carve it?  
A. Sealing the foil  
steam the meat. Leaving it  
unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown  
the meat.  
A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10  
20 minutes after removing them from the oven.  
Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.  
REGULAR ROASTING  
Frozen Roasts  
Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting.  
poultry often does not cook evenly.  
Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked  
successfully without thawing. Follow the directions  
given on the package label.  
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started  
without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per  
pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for  
roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).

Broiling Guide.  
is cooking food by intense radiant heat  
from the upper broil element in the oven. Most  
fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow  
these directions to keep spattering and smoking to  
a minimum.  
Turn the food, then use the times given for the second  
side as a guide to the preferred doneness.  
4. Leave the door open to broil  
stop position. The door stays  
open by itself, yet the proper  
temperature is maintained in  
the oven.  
1. If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge,  
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart.  
If desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer  
about 1/8 inch thick.  
2. Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.  
Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler  
pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough  
to catch on fire.  
5. Press the BROIL pad.  
6. Press the INCREASE pad for HI Broil or press  
DECREASE pad for LO Broil.  
3. Position a flat shelf on the recommended shelf  
position suggested in the Broiling Guide.  
Most broiling is done on C position, but if your  
oven is connected to 208 volts, you may wish to  
use a higher position.  
To change from HI Broil to LO Broil, press  
DECREASE pad once.  
7. When broiling is finished press the  
pad.  
Serve the food immediately, and leave the pan outside  
the oven to cool during the meal for easiest cleaning.  
NOTE: A fan may automatically turn on and off to  
cool internal parts. This is normal and the fan may  
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.  
Use of Aluminum Foil  
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan and broiler grid.  
However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in  
it just like the grid.  
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat juices from  
draining into the broiler pan. The juices  
become hot enough  
to catch on fire. If you do not

Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a  
grid in the pan?  
A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the  
pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the  
pan, thus keeping meat drier. Juices are protected  
by the grid and stay cooler, thus preventing  
excessive spatter and smoking.

BROILING  
When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty  
edges hang over the sides because dripping fat  
soil the oven.  
Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with  
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and  
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower  
part of the pan.  
The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,  
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat  
if desired.  
The oven door should be open to the broil  
stop position.  
Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven  
and increasing  
For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the  
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise  
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the  
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during  
the self clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by  
hand. Any soap left on the liner causes additional  
stains when the oven is heated.  
The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a  
soap-filled scouring pad.  
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—the  
fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely  
low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting  
oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient  
oven operation and good baking results. If you  
notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged  
in any way or if it has become displaced on the door.

Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and  
the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back  
and pinch fingers.  
While working in the oven area, cover the hinges  
with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent

Oven Light Replacement  
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,  
disconnect the electrical power for your oven at  
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel.  
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool completely  
before removing or replacing them. When in use, light  
bulbs can become warm enough to break if touched  
with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid  
touching warm lights with cleaning cloths if the light

CLEANING  
(continued)  
Control  
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid  
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on  
the control panel—they will damage the finish. A  
50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.  
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after  
each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar  
and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with  
a soft cloth.  
Glass Window  
To clean the outside of the oven window, use a glass  
cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.  
Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down  
inside the openings in the glass or the openings in  
the top of the oven door while cleaning.  
Metal Parts  
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or  
commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces:  
wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.  
Oven Heating Elements  
Broil Element  
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.  
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.  
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the  
Bake Element  
oven floor. If  
residue or ash accumulate  
around the bake element gently wipe around the  
element with warm water.
