TIPS FOR CONVECTION
COOKING
This section gives you cooking instructions and
procedures for operating each convection function.
Please read these instructions carefully.
Convection cooking circulates hot air through the oven
cavity with a fan. The constantly moving air surrounds
the food to heat the outer portion quickly, creating even
browning and sealed-in flavor by the constant motion
of hot air over the food surfaces. Your oven uses
convection cooking whenever you use the Convection
button. DO NOT USE THE OVEN WITHOUT THE
TURNTABLE IN PLACE.
1. Always use the metal rack on the turntable when
convection cooking.
2. De net cover the turntable or metal rack with
aluminum foil. It interferes with the flow of air that
cooks the food.
3. Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils
for many convection-only items. Choose pans that
do not have extended handles.
4. Use convection cooking for items like souffles,
breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and for
some meat and fish cooking.
5. Your oven comes equipped with a metal tray
which can be used for cooking in convection mode
or combination mode.
6. You do not need to use any special techniques
to adapt your favorite oven recipes to convection
cooking; however, in general you need to lower
the oven temperature by 25°F (14°C) from the
recommended temperature mentioned in package
instructions when cooking packaged food in
convection mode.
7. When baking cakes, cookies, breads, rolls, or
other baked foods, most recipes ca!! for preheating.
Preheat the empty oven just as you do a regular
oven. You can start heavier, dense foods such as
meats, casseroles, and poultry without preheating.
8. All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be
used in convection cooking.
9. As in conventional cooking, the distance of the
food from the heat source affects cooking results.
Refer to the tables in this Use and Care Guide.
10. Use metal utensils only for convection cooking.
Never use for microwave or combination cooking
since arcing and damage to the oven may occur.
11. After preheating, if you do not open the door,
the oven will automatically hold at the preheated
temperature for 30 minutes.
PRECAUTIONS
• The oven cavity, door, turntable, roller rest, metal
tray, metal rack, and cooking utensils will become
very hot.
USE THICK OVEN GLOVES when removing the
food, cooking utensils, metal rack, metal tray, and
turntable from the oven after convection cooking.
• Do not use lightweight plastic containers, plastic
wraps, or paper products during any convection
cycle.
