BAKING PROBLEMS For best cooking results preheat the oven before baking cookies, breads, cakes, pies or pastries, etc... There is no need to preheat the oven for roasting meats or baking casseroles. The cooking times and temperatures needed to bake a product may vary slightly from your previous appliance.
Cooking Instructions CONVECTION BAKING As a general rule, convection baking will allow preparation of most foods at reduced temperatures for shorter periods of time, while producing superior results. Typically, you can reduce standard bake temperatures by 25°F and cook for 10% to 25% less time.
CONVECTION ROASTING All baking modes can be used to successfully roast in your oven. However, the Convection Roast mode is recommended to produce meats that are deliciously seared on the outside and succulently juicy on the inside in record time. Foods that are exceptional, when prepared in the Convection Roast mode include: beef, pork, ham, lamb, turkey chicken and Cornish hens.
