In a convection oven, a fan
circulates hot air over, under and
around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly
distributed throughout the oven
cavity. As a result, foods are evenly
cooked and browned--often in less
time than with regular heal
(appearance may vary)
To help you understand the difference
between convection bake and roast and
traditional bake and roast, here are some
general g-uidelines.

Heat comes fi'om the top heating
element. The convection fbmcirculates
the heated air evenly over and around the
food. Meat and poult U are browned on
all sides as if they were cooked on a
rotisserie. Using the roasting rack
provided, heated air will be circulated
over, under and around the food being
roasted. The heated air seals in juices
quickly for a moist and render product
while, at the same time, creaung a rich
golden brown exterior.
V_q_enyou are convection roasting it is
important that you use the broiler pan
and _'id and the special roasting rack for
best convecuon roasting results. The pan
is used m catch grease spills and the ,grid
is used to prevent,grease spatters.
Place tim meat on the special roasting
rack. The rack holds the meat. The rack
allows the heated air to circulate under
the meat and increase browning on the
underside of the meat or poultD_.
Place the shelf in the lowest shelf
position (A).
Place the ,grid on the broiler pan and
put the roasting rack over them making
