Convection Roasting - KitchenAid KDRP707 Use And Care Manual

In the Convect Roast function, the bake and broil elements
operate, along with the fan, to provide heat in the oven cavity.
Use Convect Roast when cooking food on a single rack, such as
chicken, turkey, tender roasts and vegetables. It may also be
used when baking bread, pies, tube and loaf cakes on a single
rack.
During Convect Roast preheating, the fan and the bake and broil
elements heat the oven cavity. When preheating is finished, the
same elements cycle to maintain the oven temperature while the
fan continues to constantly circulate the heated air.

If the oven door is opened during convection roasting or
preheating, the element(s) and the fan will turn off immediately.
Once the door is closed, they will come back on.
For optimal cooking results, do not cover food or use cooking
bags.
When roasting poultry and meat, use the roasting rack on the
top of the broiler pan and grid. It is not necessary to wait for
the oven to preheat, unless recommended in the recipe.
