using your new range: convection bake mode
tips for convection bake mode:
a) Oven Heating Light
This light turns on when the oven heats and cycles off
when the set temperature has been reached. The cycling
continues as long as BAKE or CONVECTION BAKE
mode is set.
b) Oven Temps
Lower oven temperature 25 degrees F to 50 degrees F
when converting regular BAKE to CONVECTION BAKE
settings for baked food items such as breads, cakes,
cookies and muffins, etc.
c) Cooking Times
Length of cooking time may be shorter than the standard
bake time.
c) Pan Sizes
The pan shape, dimensions of pans may affect the
cooking times and browning. Always follow recipe and
recommendations supplied with recipe.
Preheating the Oven:
When roasting and baking foods with convection longer
than 15 minutes, preheating is not necessary.
high altitude baking:
When baking at high altitudes, in either BAKE or
CONVECTION BAKE, recipes and baking times will vary.

There may be a cost for the bulletins. Specify
the type of information you want (example: cakes,
cookies, breads, etc.)
CONDENSATION:
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate
from the food during any cooking process. The amount
depends on the moisture content of the food. The
moisture will condense on any surface cooler than the
inside of the oven, such as the control panel.
PRECAUTION!
The United States Department of Agriculture says:
DO NOT hold foods at temperatures between 40
degrees F to 140 degrees F more than 2 hours.
RACK POSITIONS:
One, two or three racks of food can be cooked in the
oven at the same time. Place racks in the oven before
turning it on. See previous page for positioning racks.
#3 Use this rack in combination with rack #1 for double
rack baking.
#2 Use this rack when baking single pan foods such
as sheet cakes, come breads, desserts, casseroles,
cookies, or a single rack oven meal. Use with racks #1
and #3 for three sheets of cookies.
#1 Use this rack for air-leavened cakes (Angel Food),
frozen pie, large roasts, or a turkey. Use in
combination with rack #3 for a 2 rack oven meal or
more than 2 cakes.
utensils:
Aluminum bake-ware gives the best browning results
in CONVECTION BAKE mode.
Cookie sheets should have low sides; use
aluminum commercial half sheets or professional
cooking utensils.
Light or dark pan finish affects timing: Light pan
finish gives a medium to golden brown appearance;
dark pan finish gives a darker brown.
The broil pan and grid can be used for roasting
tender meats and poultry as an alternate utensil to
a roasting rack and low-sided pan.
Placement:
For better browning, utensils such as cookie
sheets, jelly roll pans and rectangular baking pans
should be placed crosswise on the rack with the
shorter sides on the right and the left. This allows
the air to circulate freely.
When baking on more than one rack, pans do not
need to be staggered.

CAUTION!
WHEN USING THE OVEN IN ANY MODE,
NEVER USE ALUMINUM FOIL TO COVER THE
OVEN RACKS OR TO LINE THE OVEN. IT CAN
DAMAGE THE OVEN LINER IF HEAT IS
TRAPPED UNDER IT.
