Convection Cooking
Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the
regular features (Broil, Bake and Rotisserie). Convection cooking provides
faster cooking in many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan
gently sends air to every area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing
in moisture and flavor. It produces more even temperature all around the food
by air movement, so that food cooks/bakes/broils evenly versus the normal
ovens hot and cold spots. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at
lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler.
With the Convection & Rotisserie Oven with Electronic Control, you will see
about a 20% to 25% decrease in cooking time when compared to a
conventional oven.
We recommend that you do not cook a roast larger than 4 lbs. on the rotisserie
skewer. Chicken should be bound in string to prevent the chicken legs or wings from
unraveling during roasting and so that rotisserie assembly will rotate smoothly. For
best results we recommend that you preheat the oven for 15 minutes on 450°.
Please note that the “Convection” feature turns on automatically with the “Rotisserie”
function. When using the “Rotisserie” function, the oven has been preset to start at
400° and with 70 minutes set on the timer. The temperature cannot be adjusted but
the time can be adjusted anywhere between 1-120 minutes.
