Convection Roast

Use for roasting. When set on Convection Roast the outer top element and the bottom element operate whenever heating. Fan operates.

Convection Broil

Use for fish. The door must be closed when Convection Broiling. When set on Convection Broil both top elements operate whenever heating. Fan operates.

NOTE:

•You will hear a convection fan while cooking with this feature.

•A cooling fan will turn on to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run even after the oven is turned off.

Convection cookware

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven. Use the pan size recommended in the recipe.

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, you should use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F. can also be used.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

•Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.

•Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

Convection Roasting Rack

Use this rack with the broiler pan and grid to provide good air circulation when convection roasting.
