OVEN USE Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few times, or when it is heavily soiled, IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off, Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room, On models without a temperature probe, always rely on a meat thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. The internal temperature, not appearance, is what counts.
To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift out. Use the following illustration and charts as a guide. 4 ........................ 2 1 .......................... Traditional BAKEWARE To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow 2" (5 cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide. NUMBER OF PAN(S) POSITION ON RACK 1 Center of rack. 2 Side by side or slightly staggered. 3 or 4 Opposite corners on each rack.
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Use MAXI/ECONO (on some models) for broiling regular-sized and smaller cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Broil MAXl uses both top elements for maximum browning coverage of foods. Broil ECONO uses the inner element for browning coverage of a smaller area. Before broiling, position rack according to Broiling Chart. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless recommended in the recipe.
Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food. Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with an alternative method such as a toothpick. Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places. { Auto convection baking allows you to convection cook without entering convection cooking temperatures.
