CONVECTION OVEN

Abstract:

A convection cooking oven includes a cooking cavity for receiving food product to be cooked, a door movable between an open condition and a closed condition relative to the cooking cavity and a heater for generating heat. A fan system is provided for moving heated air within the cooking cavity, the fan system operable in both a first mode in which air is moved at a first rate, and a second mode in which either (i) air is moved at a second rate, which is lower than the first rate, or (ii) air is not moved by the fan system. A fan system override control is configured such that, when the fan system is operating in the first mode, the fan system is automatically switched to operate in the second mode based upon occurrence of a first predefined oven condition.
