USING THE CONVECTION OVEN
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time during convection cooking.
To help you understand the difference between convection bake and roast and traditional bake and roast, here are some general guidelines.
The oven fan and the bake burner will not run simultaneously. The fan and the oven burner will cycle opposite of each other. For example during the preheat the fan will not run, but once the preheat has completed you will hear the fan run until the burner comes back on. This is NORMAL.
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and

CONVECTION BAKE
•Preheat the oven. See the “USING THE OVEN– PREHEATING AND PAN PLACEMENT” section.
•Ideal for foods cooked on multiple racks.
•Good for large quantities of baked foods.
•Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly around the food.
Roasting Rack Instructions
When preparing meats for convection roasting,use the broiler pan and grid along with the roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the grid will help prevent grease splatters. The roasting rack will allow the heat to circulate around the meat.
CAUTION:
•DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.
-To prevent food from coming in contact with the broil element and grease from splattering.
1.Place oven rack on bottom or next to the bottom rack position.
2.Place the grid in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the grid allowing the heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase browning on the underside.
Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler pan. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the grid. DO NOT cover the grid with aluminum foil.
3.Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.
4.Place the broiler pan on the oven rack.
