ConvectionCooking
(onsomemodels)
In a convection oven, the
Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.
■It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
■Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary.
■Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
■Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as using a toothpick.
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.
■Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe (on some models) to determine the doneness of meats and poultry.
ConvectionBake
(onsomemodels)
A
A. Convection element (hidden) and fan
The convection element is hidden in the rear panel of the oven cavity, and assisted by the convection fan, provides balanced, efficient heating.
Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
