Setting Convection Roast
The CONVECT ROAST pad is designed to give optimum cooking performance for this feature. The oven can be programmed for Convection Roasting at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 350°F. The convection roast feature combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is not necessary for meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
Convection Roasting Tips:
•Use a broiler pan and grid, and a roasting rack (avail- able by mail order). The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the grid will help prevent spatters. The roast- ing rack will hold the meat.
•Place an oven rack on rack position 1 (Figure 1).
•No preheat is needed in convection roast.
•Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler pan (available by mail order only).
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.
•There is no need to reduce the convection temperature or to use the Convection Convert feature with this cooking mode.
•DO NOT use the broiler pan (available by mail order) without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
•Always pull the rack out to the stop position before removing food.
•Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.

Setting Convection CONVERT
The Convect Convert pad is used to automatically convert a standard baking recipe for convection baking. When set properly, this feature is designed to display the actual converted (reduced) temperature in the display. Convection Convert may ONLY be used with a Convection Bake setting. When used with the Bake Time or a Delay Start features, “CF” (check food) will be displayed when 75% of the bake time complete. At this time the oven control will sound 3 long beeps at regular intervals until baking had finished. When the bake time has completely finished the control will display “End” and beep at regular interval until the CANCEL pad is pressed.
To change from a normal bake recipe to a convection bake recipe (example: changing a 400°F normal bake recipe to a convection bake recipe:
When the CONVECT BAKE mode is on at 400°F, press CONVECT CONVERT. “CONV BAKE” and the oven temperature adjustment will appear in the display (for this example it is 375°F). A beep will sound once the adjusted oven temperature is reached. The display will show “375°”, “CONV BAKE” and the fan icon.
NOTE
When using a Bake Time under 20 minutes, the Convection Convert will not beep and display the “CF” message.
