NOTES:
❚ Press the Bake or Convect Bake
pad to recall the preselected tem-
perature during preheat.
❚ To change oven temperature dur-
ing cooking, press the appropriate
Bake or Convect Bake pad and
the appropriate number pads for
the desired oven temperature.
❚ If more than 30 seconds elapse
between pressing a function pad
and pressing a number pad, the
display will return to the previous
display.
❚ As a general rule, when convec-
tion baking, set the oven tem-
perature 25° F lower than the
conventional recipe or prepared
mix directions. Baking time will
be the same to a few minutes
less than directions.
❚ When roasting meats using the
convection setting, roasting
times are generally 25-30% less.
(Maintain conventional roasting
temperatures.)
❚ See roasting chart in “Cooking
Made Simple” booklet for recom-
mended roasting temperature and
times, and additional baking and
convection cooking tips.
❚ You may find that the cooking
times and temperatures vary
slightly from your old oven. This is
normal. Every oven has its own
characteristics.
CAUTION:
➢ Food preparation warning: Follow
food manufacturer’s instructions. If a
plastic frozen food container and/or
its cover distorts, warps, or is other-
wise damaged during cooking,
immediately discard the food and its
container. The food could be con-
taminated. ➢ Follow the manufacturer’s directions
when using oven cooking bags.
