*Convection broiling times are approximate and may vary slightly. Times are based on cooking with a preheated broil element.

T

Speed Convection uses all heating elements as well as the con-

vection fan to evenly distribute heat throughout the oven cavity.

The main difference between speed convection and other convec-

 

tion modes is that it does not require preheating.

 

 

Speed Convection is well suited for frozen convenience foods such as fish sticks and chicken nuggets. The benefits of Speed Convection include:

Decrease in cook time since preheating is not necessary.

Crispy and evenly browned frozen foods.

Begin cooking all frozen convenience products in a cold, non-preheated oven. The food will still be done in package time.

Follow package instructions for time and temperature.

Flipping of food halfway through recommended cook time is not necessary.

Frozen foods that are sold in microwaveable plastic containers should not be used in this mode.

Cook food items on rack position 3 unless directed otherwise by the product manufacturer.

If baking more than one product simultaneously, use rack positions 2 and 5.

Evenly space food items on pan.

For double ovens, only one cavity is available when using Speed Convection.
