ceramic dishes such as Corningware®.

tolerate the high temperature.
How to use convection broil mode
Use the convection broil mode for cooking thick, tender
cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection broil is not rec-
ommended for browning breads, casseroles and other
foods.
In addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection
broiling is faster.
Note
¡ Always use convection broil with the oven door closed.
¡ Preheat the oven for 3 to 4minutes. Do not preheat for
more than 5minutes.
¡ Steaks and chops should be at least 1½" (4cm) thick.
¡ Use the broil pan and grid or a deep pan with a metal
rack, for broiling.
¡ Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to pre-
vent smoking and spattering.
¡ Turn meats once during the recommended cook time.
Fish does not need to be turned.
¡ Never use heat-proof glass, such as Pyrex®; it cannot
tolerate the high temperature.
How to use proof mode
Use the proof mode to raise yeast dough.
Note
¡ Start with a cool oven when using the proof mode.
¡ Allow frozen dough to thaw first.
¡ The ideal temperature for proofing will be maintained
until the mode is turned off. Dough has proofed when it
has doubled in size.
¡ Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that ac-
commodates the size of the container.
¡ Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check
the rising of the dough.
