Pie (some models)
Use Pie to cook fresh or frozen pies.
Tips:
Baking times may slightly decrease when using this 
mode.  Check pies earlier.
To prevent over browning, the pie edge may need to be 
covered with foil or a pie ring.
Use bleached all purpose flour or pastry flour for crusts. 
Cake or bread flour may yield weak or tough crusts. 
For tender crusts, substitute a small amount of vinegar 
for part of the liquid.
For a flaky crust, make sure that ingredients are cold 
during preparation.
To prevent dough from shrinking during cooking, place 
crust in pie pan, wrap in plastic wrap and rest in 
refrigerator for 30 minutes before adding filling. Note: 
dough can be stored like this for up to two days. 
The convection fan cycles on and off when using pie 
mode.
Pizza (some models)
Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.
Tips:
For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack.
For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.
When proofing dough, coat dough with olive oil and 
cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust 
formation.
Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.
If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally 
with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the 
pan.
If par-baking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough 
with a fork before baking.
If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for 
a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a softer 
crust.
Preheat baking stones while the oven is preheating.
Bake homemade pizzas on rack position 2 in center of 
the rack.
Follow manufacturer’s directions for frozen pizza.
The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza 
mode.
Roast
Roast is best suited for large cuts of meat and poultry.
Tips:
Use a high-sided pan, or cover dish with a lid or foil.
Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or 
stock for flavor and moisture.
Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode.
When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings 
behind back and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.
Convection Roast (some 
models)
The Convection Roast mode is well suited for preparing 
tender cuts of meat and poultry. 
The benefits of Convection Roast mode include:
á
In the Pie mode, heat from the upper and 
lower element is circulated throughout the 
oven by the convection fan.
á
In the Pizza mode, heat from the upper 
and lower elements is circulated 
throughout the oven by the convection fan.

t
Roast uses both the upper and lower 
elements to maintain the oven 
temperature. Roasting uses more intense 
heat from the upper element than the 
lower element. This results in more 
browning of the exterior while the inside 
remains especially moist.
á
Convection Roast uses heat from the top 
and bottom elements as well as heat 
circulated by the convection fan.
