Oven Features:

• True European Convection with Direct Air: This advanced convection system uses a third heating element (often a 2500W double-loop element) located in the back wall, surrounding a variable speed convection fan. The fan reverses direction to circulate hot air from the top down, blowing it directly onto the food from numerous vents in the ceiling of the oven cavity. This provides optimal heat circulation for even baking and roasting results on multiple racks, often eliminating the need for turning food or rotating pans.

• No Preheat Air Fry: Allows you to cook healthier, crispier versions of your favorite foods in less time, without requiring preheating or a special basket.

• Self-Clean with Steam Clean Option: Offers both a traditional high-heat self-clean cycle for deep cleaning (with variable cleaning times and auto-latch) and a quicker Steam Clean option that uses water to loosen light soil for easy wiping in about 30 minutes with less heat and odor.

• Hidden Bake Element: The bake element is concealed beneath the oven floor, creating a smooth, easy-to-clean surface and promoting even heat distribution.

• Fast Preheat: A speedy preheat feature to cut down on oven heating time.
