USING THE OVEN
(CONTINUED)
PRE-HEATING
Many recipes call for a pre-heated oven. Refer to your recipe for instructions. Pre-heating time
depends on the Mode and Temperature selected, as well as the number of racks inside the oven.
RACK POSITIONS / USES FOR COMPANION OVEN
The companion oven of the 48” range has the same capabilities as the main oven, with the exception
of True-Convection and Self-Clean. The rack position recommendations on the previous page are the
same for the companion oven. However, cooking times will probably be different due to the small
oven cavity.
APPROPRIATE BAKEWARE / PLACEMENT
Bakeware suitable for use in your Hestan oven
are metal, heat-proof glass (Pyrex®), glass-
ceramic, earthenware pottery, etc. Cookie
sheets / jelly roll pans with a small lip are also
suitable. Thicker sheets or double-sided sheets
may increase baking times.
Stagger multiple cake pans as shown here.
Leave approximately 2” [5 cm] space between
all pans and oven walls to allow for hot air
circulation inside the oven.
MEAT PROBE
The meat probe only works in the following
modes: Bake, Convection Bake, Roast,
Convection Roast, True Convection.
The probe measures between
115 - 185°F [46 - 85°C].
In the 36” oven, the probe inserts into a jack
on the upper LEFT side of the oven cavity.
In the 30” oven (KRD30, main oven of
KRD48), the probe inserts into a jack on the
upper RIGHT side of the oven cavity.
To avoid damaging the probe, do not insert it
into frozen meats, or try to force it into your
food. The probe should not touch any part
of the cooking vessel or the oven. For best
results with most meats, the probe should be
inserted into the thickest portion of the meat.
Ensure the probe tip does not touch bone or
fat to get the most accurate internal temperature
readings. For poultry, the probe should be inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, or breast.
Use only the probe shipped with the appliance. Use only genuine Hestan spare parts if you need a
replacement.
When the probe temperature reaches the set temperature, the cooking mode will stop and the oven
will shut off. An audible alert will sound a total of 3 times at 1 minute intervals, or until the user
cancels the alert and is prompted to turn both control knobs to OFF.
