Cookware for Convection Cooking

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.

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, when oven is below 400°F.

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.

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, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

Tips

Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/

1 RACK pad once for multi-rack convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on more than one rack (i.e., 2, 3 or more racks) at the same time in convection bake. See the Multi-Rack Baking section for more information. Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/1 RACK pad twice for one rack convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on only one rack in convection bake.

Touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad for convection roasting.

Touch the number pads to set the desired oven temperature. Remember to adjust baking temperature accordingly.

See the Adapting Recipes section.

Touch the START pad.

To change the oven temperature, touch the CONVECTION BAKE or CONVECTION ROAST pad and then the number pads to set the new temperature.

When the oven starts to heat the changing temperature, starting at 100°F, will be displayed. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, 3 beeps will sound.

Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when finished.

NOTE: You will hear a fan while cooking with convection. The fan will stop when the door is opened but the heat will not turn off.

The fan will not start until the preheat temperature is reached.

In convection bake modes, for maximum cooking evenness, the fan is designed to rotate in both directions, with a pause in between. This is normal.

When convection baking with only 1 rack, follow the rack positions recommended in the Using the Oven section.

Multi-Rack Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results using multiple racks.

Multi-rack baking may increase cook times slightly for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and other quick breads give very good results with multi-rack baking.

To cook food on more than one rack in convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE

MULTI.

When baking larger foods on 3 racks, place one rack in the 2nd (A) position,

one on the 4th (C) position and the third rack in the 6th (E) position.

When baking cookies, place the racks

in the 3rd (B), 4th (C) and 5th (D) positions.
