Using the Defrost Feature Trivection ™ Wall Oven Cookware/ tips for defrosting The defrost feature allows you to thaw food for a set amount of time. Plastic storage containers should be uncovered before defrosting. For best results, remove food from packaging and place on broil pan and grid. If food is left in packaging, slit, pierce or vent to prevent heat buildup. Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to sit out for more than one hour after defrosting.

Using Traditional Bake and Roast Trivection ™ Wall Oven Aluminum foil You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid. Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking. Cut slits in the foil just like the grid. A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower rack several inches below the food.
Using the Traditional Timed Baking and Roasting Features Trivection ™ Wall Oven On double oven models, you can use timed baking in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking in both ovens at the same time. NOTE: Foods that spoil easily—such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork—should not be allowed to sit for more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
Using Traditional Broil Trivection ™ Wall Oven How to set the oven for broiling 5 Follow suggested rack positions in the Broiling Guide. Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven. NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door open or closed. However, if the door is closed, the food may not brown as well because the oven heating element will cycle on and off. 1 Select BROIL. 2 Select HI for high broil or LO for low broil.
Using the Convection Modes Trivection ™ Wall Oven Convection fan In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time with convection heat. NOTE: The convection fan may cycle on and off and change direction while cooking to best distribute hot air in the oven. The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.
Convection roast • Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
Using the Timed Features for Convection Cooking Trivection ™ Wall Oven On double oven models, you can use timed baking or roasting in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking or roasting in both ovens at the same time. You will hear a fan while cooking with these features. The convection fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.
How to set a delayed start and automatic stop You can set the oven control to delay-start the oven, cook for a specific length of time and then turn off automatically. Make sure the clock shows the correct time of day. 1 Select CONVECTION. 10 Select DELAY BAKE. 11 Using the number pads, enter the time of day you want the oven to turn on and start cooking. 12 Select ENTER. 2 On double oven models, select upper or lower oven. 13 Select START. 3 Select CONV MULTI for multi-rack convection baking.
Recipes Trivection ™ Wall Oven You can preset up to six temperature/cooking time combinations with this function. You can then bake, convection bake/roast or speed bake any of these six favorite recipes without choosing settings each time. NOTES: You cannot program broil, defrost, dehydrate, warmer, proof, speed broil, Delay Bake or self-clean in RECIPES. Your oven will remember FAVORITES that have been programmed even after a power outage. The cooking time you enter does not include preheat time.
Using the Proof, Warmer and Warm Features Trivection ™ Wall Oven The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products. How to set the oven for proof NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic may need to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off). 1 Place the covered dough in the oven on rack B or C. 2 Select FEATURES, then MORE, then PROOF and then START.
Using the Self-Cleaning Oven Trivection ™ Wall Oven Before a clean cycle The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly. We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle. Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
How to delay the start of cleaning The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly. 1 Select FEATURES. 2 Select SELF CLEAN. Select upper or lower oven on double oven models. 3 Select the desired self clean. A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended when cleaning small, contained spills. A self-clean time of 4 hours or longer is recommended for a dirtier oven. LO (3 hrs) will self clean the oven for 3 hours.

Clock Clock options The clock must be set to the correct time of day for the automatic oven timing functions to work properly.
