BEFORE USING YOUR OVEN
Before using your oven for the first time, be sure to:
•
Wash the wire racks and baking tray with soapy water,
rinse with clean water and dry. These parts should be
cleaned and thoroughly dried by hand only.
• Use a damp cloth to lightly wipe the inner walls of the
oven. Use a small amount of detergent, but don’t use
a spray or abrasive polishing agent. Do not touch the
heating elements and do not soak the inside of the
oven with water.
• Place the wire racks and baking tray inside the oven.
• Preheat the oven. First close the oven door and then
preheat the oven at the highest temperature for a
minimum of 5 minutes. The oven may emit an odor.
This is normal and should dissipate.
Note: This odor is not harmful.
• Turn off the oven and allow it to cool. Remove any
smoke residue inside the oven with a damp cloth.
• Do not block the exhaust vents.
FUNCTION GUIDELINES
IMPORTANT: When using smaller baking trays, use only the
wire racks for support.
Bake
Your convection oven is equipped with two wire racks and has
three rack positions (see diagram, page 13). The racks can be
easily removed and arranged at various levels. For best results
when using the oven for conventional baking, do not use more
than one rack at a time.
•
Set wire rack to desired position.
• Set the Function knob to BAKE.
• Set the Temperature knob as specified in your recipe.
• Set the Timer, if desired, for up to 120 minutes. If the
baking time is less than 20 minutes, first turn the timer
clockwise past the 20-minute mark and turn it back to the
desired time. If a longer baking time is required, turn the
timer directly to the desired time.
