Whenever possible

Hello. Could you please tell me if the following phrase is correct? I want to politely tell someone not to hurry to do something.

"Please... whenever possible and at your convenience"

Thank you.

Wildblue Please... whenever possible and at your convenience" It is either contradictory or overkill: 'whenever possible' is ambiguous. I suggest a simpler "At your convenience".
