• It is not necessary to reduce oven temperature when roasting
with convection. Roasting time may be shorter for poultry.
• For best results, use a broiler pan, grid and roasting rack,
designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a Broiler Pan Kit, it may be
ordered. See "Assistance or Service" section to order. Ask for
Part Number W10123240.
To Convection Roast:
Before convection roasting, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. It is not necessary to
wait for the oven to preheat before putting food in, unless
recommended in the recipe.
Use a roasting rack on top of the broiler pan and grid. This holds
the food above the grid and allows air to circulate completely
around all surfaces.
1. From the Main menu, touch CONVECT.
2. Touch ROAST.
3. To change the preset temperature, enter the desired
temperature on the numerical keys. The convection roast
temperature can be set to between 170°F and 500°F (77°C
and 260°C).
4. To change the cook time, touch COOK TIME. Enter the
desired cook time using the numerical keys.
5. If using the temperature probe, touch PROBE and enter the
desired food temperature using the numerical keys.
A. Broil heat

During convection broiling, the broil elements will cycle on and off
in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly
circulates the hot air.
The temperature is preset at 325°F (163°C), but can be changed
to a different temperature. Cooking times will vary depending on
the rack position and temperature and may need to be adjusted.
If the oven door is opened during convection broiling, the fan
turns off immediately when door is opened and turns on again
immediately when door is closed. Broil elements will turn off
approximately 30 seconds after the door is opened. They will turn
on again approximately 30 seconds after the door is closed.
To Convection Broil:
Before convection broiling, see "Full and Center Broiling" section
for general broiling guidelines. Position rack.
Allow the oven to preheat for 5 minutes. Position food on the
unheated grid on the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the
oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door.
Close the door.
1. From the Main menu, touch CONVECT.
2. Touch BROIL.
3. To change the preset temperature, enter the desired
temperature on the numerical keys. The convection broil
temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F (149°C and
260°C).
4. Once a cooking setup function is complete, the Start key will
