Hi! Thanks for asking, we can understand wanting to check on this. On some models of dual-fuel and electric ranges/wall ovens, the oven convection fan comes on immediately. On some models, the fan is also used during preheat. The convection fan will typically operate during all convection cooking modes and (along with the heating elements) will shut off when the door is opened and turn back on when door is closed. During cooking modes it will run to a specified on/off cycle, dependent upon the cooking mode being selected. It is normal for the fan to cycle on and off frequently during the convection cooking cycle. Algorithms decide when elements and fans should run to create the optimal heat distribution within the oven cavity. Hope this helps! Happy cooking. -Michael@GEA
