Tips for successful broiling
For best results allow the broiler to warm up for a minute or two before putting food in the
oven.
Use the timer to time the broiling process if desired.
All Broiling is carried out with the oven door closed.
We recommend using the Broiling system provided with your AeroTech™ oven. This has been
specifically designed to reduce splatter and smoke. Use only alternative glass or ceramic
dishes and pans that can withstand the high temperature of the Broil.
Basting lean meat, fish or chicken with a marinade or juices while Broiling will add flavor and
moisture.
If turning meat halfway through the cooking time, use tongs or a spatula. Avoid piercing meat
with a knife or fork as this will allow juices to escape making the meat less moist.
To make cleaning your broiling dishes easier, spray the rack, grid and inside of the pan with a
light coating of non-stick cooking spray before use. Soak them in warm water and detergent
before washing them in a dishwasher or by hand.
Position the oven shelves before you turn the oven on.

Tips for successful baking
When baking, make sure the cake tins do not touch each other or the sides of the oven.
Stagger tins across shelves if necessary and use TrueAero
for multi shelf cooking. Do not
open the oven door until at least
3
/
4
through the suggested cooking time.
Baking pans that are made of dark, dull metals are recommended in appliances with a
concealed lower element like the AeroTech™ oven. They absorb heat and often cook and
brown food faster than reflective, shiny aluminum pans and sheets.
Important!
Do not place aluminum foil, dishes with reflective qualities or any object on the oven floor
as this will cause a heat build up which will result in irreversible damage to the porcelain
enamel.
Multi shelf cooking
Multi shelf cooking is very successful using the TrueAero mode. The AeroTech™ advanced
cooking system allows you to bake several different foods simultaneously on different levels
giving you increased flexibility - as well as saving time. TrueAero is well suited to batch baking
of cookies, scones, and muffins as well as complete oven meals. See the Cooking Charts for
suggested times, temperatures and shelf positions for multi-shelf cooking.
