Convection Roast
WARNING
Burn Hazard
Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe. Do not touch broil element.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
Convection roasting is used for roasting meats and poultry. During convection roasting, the CleanBake™ and broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection roasting, the fan turns off immediately when the door is opened and turns on immediately when the door is closed. Broil and bake elements will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.
■It is not necessary to reduce oven temperature when roasting with convection. Roasting time may be shorter for poultry.
■For best results, use a broiler pan, grid and roasting rack, designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a Broiler Pan Kit, it may be ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for Part Number W10123240.
To Convection Roast:
Before convection roasting, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.
Use a roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. This holds the food above the grid and allows air to circulate completely around all surfaces.
1.From the Main menu, touch CONVECT.
2.Touch ROAST.
3.To change the preset temperature, enter the desired temperature on the numerical keys. The convection roast temperature can be set to between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
4.To change the cook time, touch COOK TIME. Enter the desired cook time using the numerical keys.
5.If using the temperature probe, touch PROBE and enter the desired food temperature using the numerical keys.
6.Once a cooking setup function is complete, the Start key will light up.
7.When settings are correct, touch START.
8.During the preheat and cooking cycle an Adjust Settings key appears on the lower right hand corner of the display. Touch ADJUST SETTINGS to change the desired time, temperature and/or probe settings. Touch START to enter new settings.
9.If the oven temperature is below the set temperature, the Preheat Bar will be displayed showing the status of the preheat cycle. When preheat is complete a tone will sound.
10.If the Cook Time has been set or the temperature probe has been used, the Check Food message will appear at the end of the cook time or once the set temperature has been reached.
If enabled,
11.Touch OFF when finished cooking.

During convection broiling, the broil elements will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.
The temperature is preset at 325°F (163°C), but can be changed to a different temperature. Cooking times will vary depending on the rack position and temperature and may need to be adjusted.
If the oven door is opened during convection broiling, the fan turns off immediately when door is opened and turns on again immediately when door is closed. Broil elements will turn off approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.
To Convection Broil:
Before convection broiling, see “Full and Center Broiling” section for general broiling guidelines. Position rack.
Allow the oven to preheat for 5 minutes. Position food on the unheated grid on the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door.
Close the door.
1.From the Main menu, touch CONVECT.
2.Touch BROIL.
3.To change the preset temperature, enter the desired temperature on the numerical keys. The convection broil temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F (149°C and 260°C).
4.Once a cooking setup function is complete, the Start key will light up.
5.When settings are correct, touch START.
6.Touch OFF when finished cooking.
