Convection Cooking - Amana Commercial Combination Oven Owner's Manual

Convection Cooking

To avoid risk of burns, handle utensils, racks, and door with care. Allow oven, utensils, and racks
to cool before cleaning. Oven, utensils, and racks, become hot during operation.
To operate the oven for convection cooking only, you can use preprogrammed pads or manual time entry. The
following instructions are for convection cooking only. For combination cooking, see that section.
Convection
Cooking
Convection cooking utilizes both a
convection element and fan to
evenly distribute heated air
throughout the oven cavity. By
circulating air, no hot or cold spots
occur, creating a consistent
temperature envelope around the
food. These consistent
temperatures cook food evenly
and reduces cooking time. Oven
will always operate in convection
mode.
