Convection Cooking uses the convection element (on some models) and the fan. Hot air is circulated throughout the oven cavity by the fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer portion quickly.

The Convect function may be used to cook small amounts of food on a single rack.

■Always use the Convection Grid.

■Do not cover Turntable or Convection Grid with aluminum foil.

■Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap or paper products. All heat proof cookware or metal utensils can be used in convection cooking, but metal utensils cannot be used in microwave cooking. Round pizza pans are excellent for convection cooking.

■Use convection cooking for items such as souffles, breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and most meats and fish.

■No special techniques are needed to adapt standard oven recipes to convection cooking, although some temperatures might need to be reduced, and some cooking times might need to be shortened.

■This oven may be preheated in the same way that standard oven is preheated. (Most recipes for baked goods call for preheating.)
