cooked.

Warming and Reheating Tips

aluminum foil. Foil can insulate foods
and slow down heating.

(150ºC) for 10 minutes.
Baking Tips
• The convection method (available on
select models) cooks up to one-third
faster than traditional baking. When
first using, check to determine if time
or temperature should be adjusted.
• Cooking time will vary considerably
depending on the density of food.
Cook until thermometer inserted in
the center of the meat registers
desired doneness.
