Convection Baking

The oven and the oven interior lights will turn on
immediately and stay on until the oven is turned
off.
The convection fan will turn on (after a short
delay), the PREHEAT light will turn on and 100°F
will appear in the display. (The temperature
display will start to change once the oven
temperature reaches 100°F.) The control will
approximately 10 to 15 minutes. The PREHEAT
light will turn off and the display will show the set
temperature.
When the PREHEAT light goes off, place food in
the oven.
Check the food for doneness at the minimum
time on the recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
Turn the Oven Mode knob and the Temperature
knob to OFF when convection cooking is finished.
NOTE: A cooling fan will turn on to cool internal
parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to
run even after the oven is turned off.
