Convection Cooking

Benefits of Convection Cooking:

--Foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy. --Multiple rack baking.

--No special pans or bakeware needed.

How Convection Cooking works (some models)

	Convection Cooking uses a fan to circulate the oven'sheat uniformly and
	continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast,
	even cooking and browning results. Italso gives better baking results when
	using two racks at the same time (See Fig. 1).
	Heated airflows around the food from all sides, sealing injuices and flavors.
	Meats cooked using the Convection feature are juicer. Poultry is crisp on
	the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads and pastry
	brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked
	faster and more evenly using the Convection feature.

For 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 oven rack positions 2 & 5 for best results (See Fig. 2)

Note: Layer cakes will have better results using the normal Bake feature.

For Roasting:

1.Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods with the Convection feature.

2.Since the Convection feature cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe. Increase the time until the desired doneness is obtained.

Note: Cook time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.

To Set Convection:

1.Program the oven as you normally would to bake.

2.Press and release the Convection switch. The indicator light located above the Convection switch will glow and the fan will come on. The fan stays on when the oven door is closed and shuts off while the oven door is opened. The fan will continue to operate until cooking is complete.

3.To cancel the Convection feature, press and release the Convection Switch once on the control panel.

iMPORTANT NOTES: The Convection fan will take 6 minutes to begin rotating once the Convection switch has been turned ON. The Convection feature will not activate during a Self-Clean cycle.
