Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and

Convection Roast bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan. The Convection Roast mode is well suited to preparing tender cuts of meat and

poultry. The benefits of Convection Roasting, include:

As much as 25% faster cooking than stan- dard Roasting/ Baking

Rich, golden browning

For Best Results:

Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.

Check doneness early as roasting time may decrease by as much as 25%. Refer to Convection Roast Chart for examples.

Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.

Use the broil pan and grid provided with the range for roasting. A low-sided, uncovered pan can also be used.

Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal temperature of the meat.

If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet done, a small strip of foil can be placed over the meat to prevent overbrowning.

Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after removing from the oven.
