„ You will hear a fan while cooking with
convection. The fan will stop when the door is
opened, but the heat will not turn off.
„ You may hear the oven clicking during

Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check to see
if your cookware leaves room for air circulation
in the 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.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that
are recommended for use in regular baking can
also be used for convection baking but should
not be used at temperatures higher than the
temperature recommended by the cookware
manufacturer. Plastic cookware that is heat-
resistant to temperatures of 400°F can also be
used.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your
convection oven; however, metal pans heat the
fastest and are recommended for convection
baking.
„ Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
„ Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
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.
How to Set the Oven for Convection Baking or Roasting
When baking cookies, you will get
the best results if you use a flat
cookie sheet instead of a pan with
low sides.
