Convection Cooking

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually
distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a
standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a
consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more
evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding
crustier breads.
Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures
25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened
by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.
■ It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so
that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air,
allowing browning and crisping.
■
Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only
when necessary.
■ Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with
lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
■
Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the
minimum cooking time using a method such as a toothpick.
WARNING
Burn Hazard
Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe.
Do not touch broil element.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
■
Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe to
determine the doneness of meats and poultry. Check the
temperature of pork and poultry in 2 or 3 places.

The T.H.E.™ (Third Hidden Element) convection element is
hidden in the rear panel of the oven cavity, and assisted by the
convection fan, provides balanced, efficient heating.
Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and
pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to
stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If
the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods,
be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures.
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space
between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the T.H.E.™ convection
element and broil element and the CleanBake™ element all heat
the oven cavity. After preheat, the T.H.E.™ convection element
and the CleanBake™ element, and the fan will cycle on and off in
intervals to maintain oven temperature.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking, the fan
turns off immediately when the door is opened and turns on
immediately when the door is closed. Convection, Bake and Broil
(only during preheating) elements will turn off approximately
30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn on again
approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.

To Convection Bake:
Before convection baking, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When using 2 racks,
place on guides 1 and 4. When using 3 racks, place on guides
1, 3 and 5.
