Setting Conv Roast
The Conv Roast function combines a cook cycle with the convec- tion fan to roast meats and poultry. Meats cooked using the Conv Roast function will be juicier and poultry will be crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside.
Conv Roast may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Suggestions for Conv Roast:
•Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using Conv Roast. Since Conv Roast cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe. If necessary, increase cooking time until the desired doneness is obtained.
•The broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the grid will help prevent splatters. The roasting rack will hold the meat. Use the offset rack on rack position 1.
•Do not cover foods when dry roasting as this will prevent the meat from browning properly.

•The convection fan will begin rotating once Conv Bake, Conv Roast or Conv Convert has been activated.

Setting Conv Convert
Pressing the Conv Convert key automatically converts the cooking temperature entered for any standard baking recipe to the lower temperature required for convection baking.
When Conv Convert is used with a timed Conv Bake setting of 20 minutes or more, the Conv Convert function will display a CF message (Figure 14) as a reminder to check food when the bake time is 75% complete. At this time the oven control will sound 1 long beep at regular intervals until the set cook time has finished.
