Convect (all models)

Benefits of the convect features

—Foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.

—Multiple rack baking.

—No special pans or bakeware needed.

Convect uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two racks at the same time.

Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Breads and pastry brown more evenly. Layer cakes will have better results using the bake pad.

Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster and more evenly with the convect feature.

Suggestions for convect baking

1.For optimum cooking results it is recommended to preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies, biscuits and breads.

2.Reduce oven temperature 25°F from recipe’s recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder of the recipe’s instructions using the minimum recommended cook time.

3.When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in positions 2 & 5 for best results (Fig. 1).

Convect roast (all models)

Meats cooked with convect roast will be juicer and poultry will be crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside.

NOTE

When choosing between the convect features, use the convect key pad to toggle between the convect bake or convect roast choices.

Suggestion for convect roasting

1.Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods using convect roast.

2.Since convect roast cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe (check the food at this time). If necessary, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.

3.Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will prevent the meat from browning properly.

To set convect roast (convection roast) with a default oven set temperature of 350°F:

Step Press

1.Press convect.

2.Press convect again.

3.Press start (See Fig. 3).
