Broil Pan
For use in broiling and roasting meat, poultry, fish and various other foods.
Crumb Tray
The crumb tray is the full width of the unit interior and is designed for easy removal and cleaning. It is easily accessible from the right side of the appliance for easy cleaning.
The top heating element in the oven cycles on and off to maintain maximum temperature in the oven. For best results, the oven should be preheated for 15 minutes at the desired temperature. A broiling guide with approximate broiling times is included below for your convenience. In the convection oven it is not necessary to turn the food because the fan circulates hot air around the food. The food must be placed on the wire rack with the broil pan beneath it to allow the circulation of air. There are two positions for the wire rack to be placed in the oven depending on the thickness of the food to be broiled. In most cases, the rack should be in the highest position and the broil pan just beneath it.

Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the regular features (broil, bake and rotisserie). Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food cooking it significantly faster than regular conventional radiant type toaster ovens. The fan gently sends air to every area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing in moisture and flavor.
It produces a more even temperature all around the food by air movement so that food cooks evenly versus the normal ovens hot and cold spots. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler.
