Convection Roast (on some models) Convection roasting can be used for roasting meats and poultry. During convection roasting, the broil, convect, and CleanBake™ elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air. If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the fan turns off immediately when the door is opened and turns on immediately when the door is closed. Bake, broil, and convect elements will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed. NOTE: it is normal for the convection fan to run during nonconvection cycles as well as during preheat. To Convection Roast Before convection roasting, position racks according to the "Rack and Bakeware Positions" section. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe. Convection Broil (on some models) During convection broiling, the broil element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan circulates the hot air. The temperature is preset at 550°F (288°C), but can be changed to a different temperature. Cooking times will vary depending on the rack position and temperature and may need to be adjusted. If the oven door is opened during convection broiling, fan turns off immediately when the door is opened and turns on again immediately when the door is closed. Broil elements will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed. NOTE: It is normal for the convection fan to run during nonconvection cycles as well as during preheat. To Convection Broil Allow the oven to preheat for 5 minutes. Position food on the unheated grid on the broiler pan, and then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door. Proofing Bread Proofing bread prepares dough for baking by activating the yeast. Proofing twice is recommended unless the recipe directs otherwise. To Proof Before first proofing, place dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover loosely with waxed paper or plastic wrap coated with shortening. Place on rack guide 2. See "Rack and Bakeware Positions" for diagram. Close door. 1. Touch Upper or Lower PROOF. Display will show 100°F (38°C). 2. Touch START. Let dough rise until nearly doubled in size, and then check at 20 to 25 minutes. Proofing time may vary depending on dough type and quantity. 3. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven when finished proofing. Before second proofing, shape dough, place in baking pan(s) and cover loosely. Follow same placement, and control steps above. Before baking, remove waxed paper or plastic wrap. Temperature Probe (single, upper and, on some models, lower oven) The temperature probe accurately measures the internal temperature of meat, poultry and casseroles with liquid and should be used in determining the doneness of meat and poultry. The temperature probe should only be used with Bake, Convect Bake or Convect Roast. Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven when removing food. To Use Before using, insert the probe into the food item. (For meats, the probe tip should be located in the center of the thickest part of the meat and not into the fat or touching a bone). Place food in oven and connect the temperature probe to the jack. Keep probe as far away from heat source as possible. Close oven door. NOTE: The temperature probe must be inserted into the food item before the mode is selected. 1. Touch the number keys to enter a probe temperature. The probe temperature is the desired internal temperature of the food when it is done. The temperature can be set between 110°F and 200°F (43°C and 93°C). 2. Touch Upper or Lower BAKE, CONVECT BAKE or CONVECT ROAST. Touch number keys to enter an oven temperature other than the one displayed. The oven temperature is the temperature given in the recipe. 3. Touch START. The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display throughout cooking. "Lo°" will appear as the probe temperature until the internal temperature of the food reaches 45°F (7°C). Then the display will show the temperature increasing. When the set probe temperature is reached, the oven will shut off automatically and "Cooking Complete" will appear on the oven display. If enabled, end-of-cycle tones will sound, then reminder tones will sound every minute. 4. Touch CANCEL for the selected oven, or open the oven door to clear the display and/or stop reminder tones. 5. Always unplug and remove the temperature probe from the oven when removing food. The probe symbol will remain lit in the display until the probe is unplugged. To Change Probe Temperature During a Cooking Cycle 1. Touch a probe enabled cooking mode (Bake, Convect Bake, or Convect Roast). 2. Follow steps 1 through 5 in the "To Use" section. 13
