New Microwave/Convection

We have a new fifth and it came with a Micro/Convection oven. I have never used one and there was no info on how to cook with it. How do you use it with regular recipes. The guy said use it like an oven. Do you use the same time as an oven? Help please.

    I have another question regarding the convection oven. Does it work the same in high attitudes?

    Convection ovens require the same recipe adjustments as a regular oven.

    There are slight changes for baking vs roasting in a convection oven but the 25 degree rule is a great rule of thumb.

    Here's a conversion calculator that might be of use:
