Using the convection oven. (on some models)

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking.

Installation Instructions Operating Instructions Safety

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.

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.

Grid

Broiler pan

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.
