3 Cookware for convection cooking
Check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circula-
tion in the oven before using your convection oven. If you
are baking with several pans, leave space between them.
Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the
walls of the oven.
1) Paper and Plastic
You can use heat-resistant paper and plastic containers
that are recommended for use in regular ovens in con-
vection ovens.
2) Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven.
However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recom-
mended for convection baking.
• Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than
shiny pans.
• Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
When baking cookies, use a flat cookie sheet instead of a
pan with low sides to get the best results
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low
sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan
with high sides.
NOTE
y Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with
no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to
circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with
a dark finish will cook faster.
y Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally
cook faster and more evenly with convection bake.
Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase
cook times for some foods, but the overall result is
time saved. Breads and pastries brown more even-
ly.
y When cooking foods on multiple racks use the con-
vection mode.
y The convection fan stops during convection bake
cycle to allow for more even heating. This is normal.
y Use the recommended size pan in recipe.
y Some frozen foods have been developed to use
commercial convection ovens. For best results in
this oven, preheat the oven and use the tempera-
ture recommended in the recipe.
y If a food manufacturer gives specific convection
baking package instructions, program the AUTO
CONVERSION temperature so that the preheated
oven temperature reads the same as the tempera-
ture on the package instructions.
CONVECTION ROAST FOR THE
LOWER OVEN
CONVECTION ROAST feature is designed to give optimum
roasting performance. CONVECTION ROAST feature
combines cooking with the convection fan to roast meats
and poultry. The heated air circulates around the food from all
sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying moist
on the inside.
1 To set the lower oven to CONVECTION ROAST (example
to 375°F).
1) Press key. Display will show .
2) Set the oven temperature (Touch 3 , 7 , 5 ).
3) Press the q key. Display will show CONV, ROAST and
the changing temperature starting at 100°F. As the oven
preheats, the display will show increasing temperatures
by 5 degree increments.
4) Once the oven reaches the desired temperature, a tone
will sound and the oven light will flash on and off. The
display will show the auto converted oven temperature
, CONV, ROAST and .
5) Place food in oven.
NOTE
When cooking using a convection cycle the oven
temperature is automatically reduced by 25°F, and
then the display will show the changed temperature.
This feature is called”AUTO CONVERSION”.
Your range comes with this feature “ENABLED”.
To DISABLE the auto conversion feature, see “How to
set convection auto conversion function” in Operating
Instructions section.
NOTE
y Touch Z key to cancel CONVECTION ROAST
function at any time.
