SETTING CONVECTION ROAST

The CONVECT ROAST pad is designed to give optimum
cooking performance for this feature. The oven can be
programmed for Convection Roasting at any temperature
between 170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of
350°F. The convection roast feature combines a cook
cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats
and poultry. Preheating is not necessary for meats and
poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all
sides, sealing in juices and fl avors. Foods are crispy
brown on the outside while staying moist on the inside.
Convection Roasting Tips:
• Use a broiler pan and grid, and a roasting rack
(available by mail order). The broiler pan will catch
grease spills and the grid will help prevent spatters.
The roasting rack will hold the meat.
• Place an oven rack on rack position 1 (see Figure 1).
• No preheat is needed in convection roast.
• Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the
grid in the broiler pan (available by mail order only).
The roasting rack fi ts on the grid allowing the heated
air to circulate under the food for even cooking and
helps to increase browning on the underside.
• There is no need to reduce the convection temperature
or to use the Convection Convert feature with this
cooking mode.
• DO NOT use the broiler pan (available by mail order)
without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
• Always pull the rack out to the stop position before
removing food.
• Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.
