CONVECTION BAKING
Convection Baking Tips:
Always preheat your oven before using the Convection Bake mode.
If your recipe cooking temperature has already been converted for convection baking
there is no need to reduce your oven temperature. If your recipe has not had the tem-
perature converted for convection baking you can easily reduce the temperature using
the Convection Convert feature. Please see Convection Convert section on next page for
further instruction on temperature conversion.
Use tested recipes with times adjusted for convection baking when using this mode. With
single rack convection baking some foods may have as much as a 25% reduction in cook
time; check food at minimum time. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and
type of food to be cooked.
When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If
cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 6 or 1, 4 and 7.
Most bakeries (except cakes) should be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to
allow heated air to circulate around the food.
Food baked on pans with a dark nish will cook faster.
To set a Convection Bake Temperature of 350°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks.
2. Select oven by pressing 

be set to control your cooking time (read their sections for directions).
7. Remove food. Always use oven mitts when removing hot pans from the oven.
8. Press  to stop or cancel the Convection Bake feature at any time.

Air Flow
This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best
culinary results when baking with multiple pans and
racks. Multiple rack baking may slightly increase cook
time for some foods but the overall result is time saved.
Most foods cooked in a standard oven will cook faster
and more evenly with Convection Bake. Convection
baking uses the hidden bake element, the hidden
convection element and a fan to circulate the oven’s
heat evenly and continuously within the oven. The
temperature probe can be used in this cooking mode.
The oven can be programmed for Convection baking at
any temperature between 300°F to 550°F with a default
temperature of 350°F.
