Convection Broil
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 450°F (232°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, 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. On double ovens only, touch UPPER OVEN or, on some
models, LOWER OVEN.
The cavity symbol indicates which oven was chosen.
2. Touch CONVECTION BROIL.
Touch the number keys to enter a temperature other than
450°F (232°C). The convection broil range can be set
between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
3. Touch START.
The set oven temperature will appear on the oven display
until oven is turned off.
4. Touch OFF, UPPER OVEN OFF or, on some models, LOWER
OVEN OFF when finished cooking.

Conversion
(single, upper and, on some models, lower oven)
Convection temperatures and times differ from those of standard
cooking. The oven can automatically reduce standard recipe
temperatures and times for convection cooking.
The conversion may not be exact because foods are grouped in
general categories. To ensure optimal cooking results, the oven
will prompt a food check at the end of a non-delayed cook time.
Use the following chart as a guide.
To Use:
Before using Convection Temperature Conversion for BAKED
GOODS and OTHER FOODS, allow the oven to preheat before
placing food in the oven.
1. On double ovens only, touch UPPER OVEN or, on some
models, LOWER OVEN.
The cavity symbol indicates which oven was chosen.
2. Touch BAKED GOODS, MEATS or OTHER FOODS.
3. Touch number keys to enter standard cook temperature.
4. Touch number keys to enter standard cook time.
5. Touch START.
“CHECK FOOD AT” and the stop time will appear on the oven
display after preheating is complete.
When the stop time is reached, end-of-cycle tones will sound
if enabled. Open the door and check food.
6. Touch OFF, UPPER OVEN OFF or, on some models, LOWER
OVEN OFF when finished cooking.
