Using Oven
Saving Energy
Avoid opening the oven door frequently. This can lengthen
the cooking time significantly, especially when steaming.
Only turn the light on when needed.
To save energy when baking for longer cooking times, turn
the oven off approximately 10 to 15 minutes before the
cooking time is completed and use the heat that is retained
in the oven to finish cooking the foods. Do not use this
method when cooking soufflés, sponge cakes, or puff
pastries.
Rack Levels
Each oven is equipped with two wire racks, one steamer tray,
and one multi-purpose cooking tray. The oven has six rack
levels with level 6 being the farthest from the oven bottom and
level 1 the closest to the bottom. The racks and trays can be
easily removed and arranged at various levels. For best results
and optimum circulation with TruConvec™, SteamHeat™,
TruSteam™, and ProBake cooking, place a suitable baking dish
on the wire rack and push the rack to the back of the oven.

Cooking Functions
TruSteam™ Cooking
This function uses moist
and dry heat to cook food.
The rear element heats the
air inside the oven. A
motorized fan circulates
the air in the oven cavity
for even heating. Steam
can be forced into the oven
by pressing the knob and
turned off by pressing the
knob a second time. Use
this setting for preparing
and cooking meats and
baking potatoes.
Recommended temperature: 360°F (180°C)
Range: 90°F (30°C) 440°F (230°C)
Press the “Function” button six times.
•<TruSteam> and <Oven Temperature> appears in the text display.
TruSteam™ Cooking Tips
When cooking meat, add steam during the first third of the
cooking time.
When cooking foods that splatter, such as meat or poultry,
the temperature should be reduced to prevent splattering on
the oven walls. This will cause dark marks that cannot be
removed.
To achieve the best results, only use levels 1 or 1 and 5.
For reheating three dishes, use levels 1, 3 and 5.
