Manual Convection and Automatic Mix Cooking
This section gives you specific cooking instructions and
procedures. Please consult your Convection Microwave
Hood Cookbook for helpful hints for convection and
combination cooking.
The microwave oven should not be used without the
turntable in place, and it should never be restricted so
that it cannot rotate. You may remove the turntable when
preheating the microwave oven and when preparing food
to be cooked directly on the turntable.
Caution: The microwave oven cabinet, cavity, door,
turntable, turntable support, racks and dishes will become
hot. To PREVENT BURNS, use thick oven gloves when
removing the food or turntable from the microwave oven.
CONVECTION COOKING
During convection heating, hot air is circulated throughout
the oven cavity to brown and crisp foods quickly and
evenly. This oven can be programmed for ten different
convection cooking temperatures for up to 99 minutes,
99 seconds.

TO PREHEAT AND COOK WITH CONVECTION
Your oven can be programmed to combine preheating
and convection cooking operations. You can preheat to
the same temperature as the convec-tion temperature or
change to a higher or lower temperature.
