With the temperature control on
175
o F, warm air is radiated from the U-
shaped bake burner in the bottom of
the oven cavity and is circulated by a
motorized fan in the rear of the oven.
Over a period of time, the water is
removed from the food by
evaporation. Removal of water
inhibits growth of microorganisms and
retards the activity of enzymes. It is
important to remember that
dehydration does not improve the
quality , so only fresh, top-quality
foods should be used.

With temperature control off, air is
circulated by a motorized fan in the
rear of the oven. The fan accelerates
natural defrosting of the food without
heat. To avoid sickness and food
waste, do not allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two
hours.

This range features an automatic
pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During
this cycle, the oven reaches elevated
temperatures in order to burn off soils
and deposits. A powder ash residue
is left in the bottom of the oven after
completion of the self-clean cycle.
When oven has cooled, remove ash
with a damp sponge or cloth.

The broil burner at the top of the
oven heats the metal screen until it
glows. The glowing screen
produces the infrared heat, searing
the outside of broiled foods and
sealing in juices.

Heat is radiated from the U-shaped
bake burner in the bottom of the
oven cavity and is circulated by the
motorized fan in the rear of the
oven. It provides more even heat
distribution throughout the oven
cavity for all uses. Multiple rack use
is possible for the largest baking
job. 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.

Exactly the same as regular broiling
with the additional benefit of air
circulation by the motorized fan in
the rear of the oven. The cool air is
quickly replaced-improving the
already high performance of the
infrared broil burner.
