BROILING CHART
For best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil
element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted
for individual foods and tastes• Recommended rack positions are
numbered from the bottom (1)to the top (5). For diagram, see the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.

1. Broil element
2. Convection fan
3. Bake element
During convection baking or roasting, the bake and broil
elements cycle on and off in intervals to maintain the oven
temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.
If the lower oven door is opened during convection baking or
roasting, the broil element and fan will turn off immediately and
the bake element will turn off in 2 minutes. They will come back
on once the door is closed•
• For optimal cooking results, do not use aluminum foil.
• Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may
need to be reduced also. See the cookbook supplied with
this oven for more information.
To Convection Bake or Roast:
Before convection baking or roasting, position the racks
according to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section.
When using two racks, place them on rack positions 2 and 4.
When roasting with CONV BAKE, use the roasting rack on top of
the broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for the oven to
preheat before putting food in, unless recommended in the
recipe.
In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air maintains a
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding
crustier breads.
Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures
25°F to 50°F (-3°C to 10°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 so that surface areas remain
exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
• Keep heat loss to a minimum by only opening the oven door
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 an alternative method such as a
toothpick.
• Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to
determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the
temperature of pork and poultry in two or three places.

Press CONV BAKE•
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
325°F (163°C). The convection bake range can be set
between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
