Whirlpool GSC309PVS - 30in Built-in Microwave Combination Double Wall Oven Use And Care Manual page 17

Convection cooking uses the convection element (on some
models) and the fan. Hot air is circulated throughout the oven
cavity by the fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to
heat the outer portion quickly.
The convect function may be used to cook small amounts of food
on a single rack.
Always use the convection grid.
Do not cover turntable or convection grid with aluminum foil.
Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap or paper
products. All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be
used in convection cooking, but metal utensils cannot be
used in microwave cooking. Round pizza pans are excellent
for convection cooking.
Use convection cooking for items such as souffles, breads,
cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and most meats and fish.
No special techniques are needed to adapt standard oven
recipes to convection cooking, although some temperatures
might need to be reduced, and some cooking times might
need to be shortened.
This oven may be preheated in the same way that standard
oven is preheated. (Most recipes for baked goods call for
preheating.)
To Convect Cook with Preheat:
1. Position convection grid on turntable in microwave oven and
close the door.
2. Touch CONVECT twice.
"PREHEAT" will appear in the upper oven display.
Touch the number pads to set a temperature other than
325°F (162°C). The cook temperature setting may be
changed as desired from 170°F to 450°F (77°C to 232°C).
Celsius temperatures below 100°C must have a "0" at the
beginning of their entries. For example, 77°C must be entered
as 0-7-7.
3. Touch START.
The upper oven display will show the "TIME" prompt.
4. Touch number pads to enter length of time to cook, in hours
and minutes, up to 4 hours.
5. Touch START.
"Lo" will appear in the upper oven display until the
temperature reaches 170°F (77°C). When that temperature is
reached, the display will show the preheating temperature in
5°F (-15°C) increments until the set cooking temperature is
reached.
