Cooking with your Oven Cooking with your Oven Conventional/Convection Cooking Rack Positions Each oven is equipped with three tilt-proof racks. Premiere models have two standard tilt-proof racks and one TruGlide rack. With the TruGlide rack, the bottom section remains in the oven and the top section smoothly glides outward when pulled. This reduces the chances of spills from items that contain alot of juice or liquid. This rack can be used in any of the six rack positions.
Cooking with your Oven Conventional Baking Chart Baking Tips • Make sure the oven racks are in the desired position before you turn on the oven. •Do not open the door frequently during baking. Look through the door window to check doneness whenever possible. If you must open the door, the best time is during the last quarter of the baking time. • Bake to the shortest time suggested and check for doneness before adding more time.

Roasting Instructions Always use the broiler pan and grid supplied with each oven. The hot air must be allowed to circulate around the item being roasted. Do not cover what is being roasted. Convection roasting seals in juices quickly for a moist, tender product. Poultry will have a light, crispy skin and meats will be browned, not dry or burned. Cook meats and poultry directly from the refrigerator. There is no need for meat or poultry to stand at room temperature.

Broiling Instructions Broiling Instructions Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or radiant heat. It is used for small, individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and patties. Broiling speed is determined by the distance between the food and the broil element. Choose the rack position based on desired results. Broiling Tips Conventional broiling is most successful for cuts of meat 1-2 inches thick and is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat.
