Convection Roast

Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under 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.

When you are convection roasting it is important that you use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack for best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters, while the rack allows the heated air to circulate under the meat and increase browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.

Place the rack in the lowest rack position (A).

Place the grid on the broiler pan and put the roasting rack over them, making sure the posts on the roasting rack fit into the holes in broiler pan.

Place the meat on the roasting rack.

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven.

If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F can also be used.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans.

Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

How to Set the Oven for Convection Baking or Roasting

OR OR

(depending on model)

Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/1 RACK pad once (CONVECTION BAKE MULTI mode) for multi-rack convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on more than one rack (i.e., 2, 3 or more racks) at the same time in convection bake. See Multi-Rack Baking section for more information.

Touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/

1 RACK pad twice (CONVECTION BAKE

1 RACK mode) for one rack convection baking. This mode is used for cooking food items on only one rack in convection bake.

NOTE: On some models, there is only a CONVECTION BAKE pad which works for both one-rack and multi- rack convection baking.

Touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad for convection roasting.

Touch the number pads to set the desired oven temperature.

Touch the START pad.

To change the oven temperature, touch the CONVECTION BAKE MULTI/1 RACK, CONVECTION BAKE (depending on model) or CONVECTION ROAST pad and then the number pads to set the new temperature.

When the oven starts to heat, the changing temperature, starting at 100°F, will be displayed. When oven reaches the temperature you set, 3 beeps will sound.

Touch CLEAR/OFF pad when finished.

You will hear a fan while cooking with convection. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.

You may hear the oven clicking during baking. This is normal.
