Convection Cooking

Convection cooking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously within 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. Meats and poultry cooked with Convection cooking are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist and tender on the inside. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster

and more evenly with Convection cooking. Also, using two oven racks gives better results and saves time.

General Convection Cooking Instructions:

1.When using Convection, decrease your normal cooking times as shown in Figure 1. Adjust the cook time for desired doneness as needed. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.

2.Preheating is not necessary when cooking meats, poultry and casseroles with Convection.

3.When using Convection with a single rack, place oven rack in

5 for the best results.

4.Cakes have better results when baked in the normal bake function.

To Set Convection Cooking:

1.Program the oven as you normally would for baking. Convection may be used with Bake, Time Bake and Delayed Time Bake features.

2.Press and release Convection switch. The indicator light will glow and the fan will come on after a 6 MINUTE DELAY. If the oven temperature has already reached 350°F, the fan will come on immediately.The fan stays on when the oven door is closed and shuts off while the oven door is opened. When the oven door is re-closed, the fan will continue to operate until cooking is complete.

3. To cancel the Convection feature, press _ on the oven control as you would to cancel any baking function.
