Using the convection oven. (on some models) ge.com
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOTleave the door open for long periods of time
while using convection cooking.
To help you understand the difference
between convection bake and roast and
traditional bake and roast, here are some
general guidelines.
Convection Bake
■Preheat the oven. See the Using the Oven–
Preheating and Pan Placement section.
■Ideal for foods cooked on multiple shelves.
■Good for large quantities of baked foods.
■Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies,
cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food
cake and bread.
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food.
Convection Roast
■Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food. Using
the grid and broiler pan provided, heated
air will be circulated over and around the
food being roasted. The heated air seals in
juices quickly for a moist and tender
product while, at the same time, creating
a rich golden brown exterior.
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on shelf
position (A).
When you are convection roasting it is
important that you use the broiler pan and
grid for best convection roasting results.
The pan is used to catch grease spills and
the grid is used to prevent grease spatters.
■Place the shelf in shelf position (A).
■Place the grid on the broiler pan.
In a convection oven, a fan
circulates hot air over, under and
around the food. This circulating hot
air is evenly distributed throughout
the oven cavity. As a result, foods
are evenly cooked and browned—
often in less time than with regular
heat.

Auto Recipe™Conversion
You can use your favorite recipes in the
convection oven.
When using CONVECTION BAKE, the oven will
automatically convert the oven temperature from
regular baking to Convection Bake temperatures.
Using the number pads, enter
the temperature recommended
in the recipe.
Touch the START pad.
The display will show the
temperature you entered from your
recipe. The oven will automatically
convert it to the convection cooking
temperature.
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when
baking is finished.
■ Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
■ Some package instructions for frozen
casseroles, main dishes or baked goods have
been developed using commercial convection
ovens. For best results in this oven, preheat the
oven and use the temperature, for regular
baking, on the package.
