CONVECTION COOKING
About Convection Cooking
Standard cooking modes (Bake, Broil, etc.) use heat
radiated from one or more elements to cook food.
Convection modes use both heat from the elements
and fans in the back of the oven to continuously
circulate the heated air throughout the oven.
DO NOT use Convection Bake for meats. Use Convection Roast instead.
