CONVECTION COOK
In convection cooking a fan in the oven back wall circulates heated air around the food to cook
food quickly and evenly on all sides, also providing browning and crisping to food surfaces.
For best convection performance, preheating is necessary. A preheat time period is built into the
Conv function.
Convection requires the use of the provided elevated racks so that heat circulates on all sides of
the food.
Use the low rack for baking, or for roasting or broiling meats. Fat drains from meat onto the
turntable. Clean turntable before next use.
Use the both the low and high rack for simultaneous baking of two levels of cookies or each
layer of a two-layer cake.
