Cooking Tips
Cooking Tips
1. Metal containers can be used in the AXP and MXP with a height no more than 1½ inches (38mm). Different
types of metal conduct heat at different speeds. Aluminum heats faster than stainless steel. Avoid using silicone
pans and accessories.
2. Stage cooking aids in retaining the quality of frozen and delicate foods. Finishing baked goods at 0%
Microwave, Fan and IR (Radiant) is a great way to get the added browning and crisping without over cooking.
3. Take advantage of the accessories:
a. Non-Stick Basket (SB10, TB10, OB10, or NB10): Aids in browning and crisping of food. Also makes cleaning up
easier. Great for breaded products like chicken ngers, fries, mozzarella sticks, jalapeno poppers.
b. Pizza Stone(ST10X): Aids in crisping and browning breads and pizzas.
c. Panini Grill Accessory (GR10): Aids in adding grill marks on a product.
d. Panini Press (PRS10): Creates pressed panini marks on sandwiches.
e. Oven Paddle (PA10): Aids in removal of sandwiches and pizza from Convection Express™ , AXP & MXP ovens.
f. Leg Kit (LG10): Lifts oven 4 inches (102 mm).
g. Square Metal Pan (SQ10): Aluminum pan, great for foods that do not need directed heat from the radiant element, and
for foods that may drip any grease or seasoning.
h. Pizza Screen: Great browning and crisping for toasted sandwiches & pizzas, or any food that needs
directed heat from the radiant element. (Available off the shelf)
i. Ceramic Dish: Great for foods that need to be contained such as ready-to-serve foods, cut vegetables or soups.

4. The most frequently used oven temperature is 520º F (270º C). Reduce the oven temperature if the product is
cooked for an extended period of time.
5. Line the sheet pan with parchment paper for easy removal of food after heating and cleaning.
6. Mufn tins work great for individual cakes & brownies. Spray with cooking spray prior to cooking for easy
removal of food after heating.
7. Frequent cleaning prevents unnecessary buildup that may affect the oven performance.
8. Use a cleaner such as ACP Oven Cleaner (CL10) & Oven Shield (SH10) or another cleaning product that does
not contain ammonia, phosphates, chlorine, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide as they can damage
critical oven parts and may void the warranty on those parts.
9. Items will be hot when nished cooking. Be sure to use oven mitt, tongs ,or pizza paddle to safely remove items
from the oven.

repeated input from the user. Stage cooking can be set to defrost food initially, then cook it, and then keep the food
warm until serving time.
