Convection Cooking and Baking (somemodels)
Theconvection option, availableon some models, isan additional feature tothe regular oven cooking methods of baking/roasting.
Instructions for using the convection option are included in the instructions for setting the oven controls.
Convection cooking isa method of cooking in which the heated air of the oven is
circulated by a fan at the rear of the oven cavity. This fan iscovered by a baffle to
circulate the air uniformly, providing even heat distribution for faster and more even
cooking, baking and browning. The heated air penetrates food from every angle,
sealing in natural moisture and flavors. The convection fan automatically turns off
when the oven door isopened and resumeswhen the door isclosed again. However,
the convection heating element will stay on.
The oven can be programmed to bake in the convection mode at anytemperature
from 170°F/77°C to 550°F/288°C. Preheating the oven for 10-12 minutes is
recommended when usingconvection, but isnot necessarywhen roasting or cooking
casseroles.
Due to better heat distribution inside the oven, lower temperatures can be used
when using the convection mode. This temperature adjustment is automatically
made by the electronic oven control. When using the convection mode, this actual
oven temperature will be 25°F/12°C lower than the displayed temperature. This
allows you to use your existing recipes without having to manually adjust the
tem perature downward.
