30 OPERATION
- Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield
parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips,
fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make
sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or
bottom of the oven. The foil can damage the
oven lining.
Convection Cooking Tips
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. Press the Convection button to use
the convection functions on the oven. Do not use
the oven without the turntable in place.
NOTE
• Always use the metal rack on the turntable when
convection cooking.
• Do not cover the turntable or metal rack with
aluminum foil. It interferes with the flow of air
that cooks the food.
• Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils
for many convection-only items. Choose pans
that do not have extended handles.
• Use convection cooking for items like soufflés,
breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and
some meat and fish dishes.
• Your oven comes equipped with a metal tray
which can be used for cooking in convection
mode or combination mode.
• You do not need to use any special techniques to
adapt your favorite oven recipes to convection
cooking, but you do need to lower the oven
temperature by 25 ℉ from the temperature
recommended on the packaging when cooking
prepared foods.
• When baking cakes, cookies, breads, rolls, or
other baked foods, most recipes call for
preheating. Preheat the empty oven just as you
do a regular oven. You can start cooking more
dense foods such as meats, casseroles, and
poultry without preheating.
• All heatproof cookware or metal accessories can
be used in convection cooking.
• Use the metal accessories only for convection
cooking. Never use for microwave or
combination cooking since arcing and damage
to the oven may occur.
• 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 accessories
will become very hot. Use oven mitts when
removing the food, cooking accessories, 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.
Combination Cooking Tips
Combination microwave-convection cooking
shortens the cooking time for foods that would
usually take a long time to cook. It leaves meats
crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. In
combination cooking, the convection heat and
microwave energy alternate automatically.
NOTE
• Meats may be roasted directly on the metal rack
or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack.
Check the Cooking Guide for instructions on
using the metal rack.
• Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and
tenderized using oven cooking bags.
• When baking, check for doneness after cooking
time is up. If not completely done, let stand in
oven for a few minutes to complete cooking.
Precautions
• All cookware used for combination cooking must
be both microwave-safe and oven-safe.
• During combination baking, some baking
cookware may cause arcing when it comes in
contact with the oven walls or metal accessory
racks. Arcing is a discharge of electricity that
occurs when microwaves come in contact with
metal.
- If arcing occurs, immediately stop the cooking
cycle and place a heat resistant dish between
the pan and the metal rack.
- For best results, use the metal tray supplied
with your oven.
- If arcing occurs with other baking cookware,
do not use it for combination cooking.
