CoLq:vection Cooki sg (on some mode_s} During convection cooking, the fan provides increased hot air circulation continuously and more consistently throughout the oven,, The movement of heated air around the food helps to speed up cooking by penetrating the cooler outer surfaces Food cooks more evenly, browning and crisping outer surfaces while sealing moisture inside, During the Convect function, the ring element operates, along with the fan, to provide an indirect source of heat in the oven cavity., If the oven door is opened during convection cooking or preheating, the element(s) and fan will turn off immediately. Once the door is closed, they wit[ come back on•, u It is important not to cover foods so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping. Keep heat toss to a minimum by only opening the oven door when necessary, m Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food,, m Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as a toothpick° m Use a meat thermometer to determine the doneness of meats and poultry,. Check the temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 different places, including the thickest part,, B Before convection cooking, position the rack(s) according to the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section,, When using more than one rack, position bakeware/ cookware on the racks to allow movement of the fan circulated air around the food.

The temperature will rise in 5 ° increments until the preset temperature is reached.. The Fan icon will start to rotate Allow the oven to preheat for 7 to 12 minutes. When the set oven temperature is reached, one long beep will sound. "PREHEAT" will disappear from the display and the set temperature will display, To recall the set temperature during preheat, press CONVECT BAKE 4, Place food in the oven,. 5., Press Lower Oven CANCEL or LOWER STOP when finished. 6o Remove food from the oven _:i:iT:: 13
