GENERAL OVEN TIPS DEFAULT SETTINGS The Cooking Modes automatically select a suitable temperature. These can be changed when a different one is needed. OVEN CONDENSATION AND TEMPERATURE • It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food. The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
OVEN RACKS • The oven has rack guides at four levels as shown in the illustration. • Rack positions are numbered from the bottom rack guide (#1) to the top (#4). • Check Cooking Charts for best rack positions to use when cooking. • Each level guide consists of paired supports formed in the walls on each side of the oven cavity. 4 3 2 1 • Always be sure to position the oven racks before turning on the oven.

COOKING WITH THE CONVECTION OVEN In a conventional oven, the heat sources cycle on and off to maintain an average temperature in the oven cavity. As the temperature gradually rises and falls, gentle air currents are produced within the oven.
OVEN MODES Selects the oven function. Each of the functions listed below can be used only with the correct temperature. Bake Mode The top and bottom heating elements will appear. This is the classic, traditional type of oven which has been perfected, with exceptional heat distribution and reduced energy consumption. The convection oven is still unequaled when it comes to cooking dishes made up of several ingredients, e.g. cabbage with ribs, etc.
Convection The bottom and circle heating elements, as well as Bake the fan, will appear. This combination rapidly heats the oven due to the large amounts of power used by the appliance, which results in the production of considerable heat coming prevalently from the bottom. The Convection Bake mode is ideal for foods requiring high temperatures to cook, like pizzas and large roasts. Only use one oven tray or rack at a time.
MultiCooking Mode The top and bottom heating elements, as well as the fan, will appear alternately. Since the heat remains constant and uniform throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food uniformly over its entire surface. With this mode, you can also cook various dishes at the same time, as long as their respective cooking temperatures are the same. A maximum of 2 racks can be used at the same time, following the instructions in the section entitled: “Cooking On More Than One Rack”.
COOLING VENTILATION In order to cool down the exterior of the appliance, this model is equipped with a cooling fan, which comes on automatically when the oven is hot. When the fan is on, a normal flow of air can be heard exiting between the oven door and the control panel. NOTE: When cooking is done, the fan stays on until the oven cools down sufficiently.
