Guide to Oven Functions

creating the perfect environment for cooking multiple dishes at once without flavor transfer, like a roast
chicken for dinner and an apple pie for dessert.
Defrost Mode
Defrost foods without partially cooking or drying them
out with this minimal heat cycle. Only the fan and oven
lamp are activated while the thermostat knob remains
at the “off” position to prevent heating.
Conventional Cooking
Conventional cooking only utilizes the upper and
lower elements and is best for foods that require the
same cooking temperature both internally and
externally, like roasts, rack of ribs or heavy cakes.
True European Convection
Convection Cooking Mode
In this setting, both upper and lower elements are turned on along
with the convection fan(s). This setting is often used for batch
baking, turkeys & roasts as it is best for maintaining the same
internal and external temperatures throughout the cooking cycle.
Warming or Re-heating Mode
Keep your meal hot until you are ready to serve or re-
heat already cooked dishes with this function. The upper
heating element and the fan(s) works together to diffuse
a slow and steady heat throughout the cavity. This
function will maintain moisture and can be used as an
alternative to reheating in a microwave or toaster oven.
Traditional Broiling
This setting turns on the either the infrared heating element in an electric oven or the gas-
powered broiler burner in a gas oven. Both are located at the top of the oven and emit an
intense and instant heat. Use the broil function to toast garlic bread, melt cheese on
French onion soup, or give vegetables or meat a caramelized exterior. You will want to
keep a close eye on your food while it’s under the broiler to avoid overcooking or burning.
Ventilated Broiling
This function, possible only in an electric oven, offers
optimal disbursement of infrared heat. Food is wrapped
in a crisping heat to create a quick outside browning
while locking in juices at the same time. This mode is
best for grilling foods such as veal, steak or hamburgers.
Oven Light
This function will turn the oven cavity light on, and
it will then remain illuminated throughout the set
cooking cycle. Note, this is not a cooking function.

with the Multifunction Electric Oven Control Knob
No one ever want s their desert to tast e like chicken or smell like
fish! Use the oven settings that utilize the convection fan to
create the perfect environment for preparing multiple dishes at
once without flavor transfer or smells mixing.
No convection f an, no problem!
A natural convection proc ess occurs in your oven cav ity as liquids and
gasses are heated and move around, diffusing the heat throughout.
CHEFS TIP
PRO NOTE
Make the most out of the broil function by moving the oven rack to the
highest p ossible position, u tilizing the included broiler pan for the best
possible airflow, and making sure to watch foods car efully as the powerful
heat can take your meal from golden brown to charred within moments.
Never be left in the dark. Verona ovens are designed for the
oven light to be illuminated throughout the cooking proces s.

NOTE
Get your oven cavity sparkling again with the Convection Cooking
Mode. Simply fill a shallow pan with water and a few drops of
white vinegar, turn the temp to the highest setting and let it run
for 60 minutes. Let cool and wipe down for a good-as-new clean.
INSIDER TIP
THE BASICS
This oven mode activates the circular ‘European’ heating element along
with the convection fan(s). This mode is best suited for foods that need to
be well-cooked outside, yet soft inside, like lasagna, lamb or whole fish.
Note, pre-heating is not required in this mod e.
