NOTE: The convection

fan automatically

turns

off when

the oven door

is opened

while

oven is in a convection

mode and resumes

when

the door

is closed

again.

The convection

oven

uses a fan

and

a convection

element

on

some

models

located

in the

rear

wall

oven

to

circulate

heated

air around

the

food

to

be cooked.

The

convection

mode

reduces

the

cook

time.

It retains

the

natural

food

juice

and

allows

the

food

to

keep

more

flavors.

method

of cooking

enables

you

obtain

the

best

culinary

results
