Broil - cont’d | Care & Cleaning |
Convection baking/roasting used a fan to circulate heated air around the food as it cooks. This results in more even and consistent cooking, quickly browning and sealing in moisture and flavor. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves money and energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler.
•Turn the function dial to “Convection Bake”.
•Set the temperature dial to the desired temperature.
•Set the timer dial to the “Stay On” position.
•Preheat the oven for 15 minutes.
•Place the food to be cooked in the oven and set the timer to the desired time or keep it on the “Stay On” position if the baking times are longer than 60 minutes.
