Product Controls Oven Settings and Functions SELF CLEAN LOW BROIL OFF BAKE TRU CONVEC MED BROIL HI BROIL CONV. BROIL CONV. BAKE CONV. ROAST TruConvec™ The rear element only operates at full power. There is no direct heat from the bottom or top elements. The motorized fan in the rear of the oven circulates air in the oven cavity for even heating. Use this setting for foods that require TruConvec TM gentle cooking such as pastries, souffles, yeast breads, quick breads and cakes. Breads, cookies, and other baked goods come out evenly textured with golden crusts. No special bakeware is required. Use this function for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, roasting, and preparation of complete meals. This setting is also recommended when baking large quantities of baked goods at one time. SELF CLEAN LOW BROIL OFF BAKE TRU CONVEC MED BROIL HI BROIL CONV. BROIL CONV. BAKE CONV. ROAST Convection Bake The bottom element operates at full power, and the top broil element operates at supplemental power. The heated air is circulated by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven providing a more even convection bake heat distribution. This even circulation of air equalizes the temperature throughout the oven cavity and eliminates the hot and cold spots found in conventional ovens. A major benefit of convection baking is the ability to prepare food in quantity using multiple racks - a feature not possible in a standard oven. When roasting, cool air is quickly replaced, searing meats on the outside and retaining more juices and natural flavor on the inside with less shrinkage. With this heating method, foods can be baked and roasted at the same time with minimal taste transfer, even when different dishes are involved, such as cakes, fish or meat. The hot air system is especially economical when thawing frozen food. Use this setting for baking and roasting. 12 Oven Settings and Functions Convection Roast* The convection element runs in conjuction with the inner and outer broil elements.The reversible SELF CLEAN LOW BROIL OFF BAKE TRU CONVEC MED BROIL HI BROIL CONV. BROIL CONV. BAKE CONV. ROAST convection fan runs at a higher speed in each direction.This transfer of heat (mainly from the convection element) seals moisture inside of large roasts. A time savings is gained over convection roast existing, single fan convection roast modes. Use this setting for whole turkeys, whole chickens, hams, etc. Convection Broil* The top element operates at full power. This function is exactly the same as regular broiling with the SELF CLEAN LOW BROIL OFF BAKE TRU CONVEC MED BROIL HI BROIL CONV. BROIL CONV. BAKE CONV. ROAST additional benefit of air circulation by the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Smoke is reduced since the airflow also reduces peak temperatures on convection broil the food. Use this setting for broiling thick cuts of meats. *This function uses a high-speed convection fan for optimum cooking performance. Some noise may be noticed from this high fan speed. This is normal. 13 Product Controls
