CONVECTION COOKING

During convection heating, hot air is circulated throughout the oven cavity to brown and crisp foods quickly and evenly.

This section gives you specific convection cooking instructions and procedures.

The oven should not be used without the turntable in place, and it should never be restricted so that it cannot rotate. You may remove the turntable when preheating the oven and when preparing food to be cooked directly on the turntable.

CAUTION

The oven cabinet, cavity, door, turntable, turntable support, racks and dishes will become hot. To PREVENT BURNS, use thick oven gloves when removing the food or turntable from the oven.

TO SET TEMPERATURE LEVEL IN CONVECTION COOKING
