CONVECTION BAKE
Convection Bake uses two fans to circulate the oven heat
evenly and continuously. The improved heat distribution
allows for even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack
cooking may slightly increase cool< times for some foods,
but the overall result is time saved.
The Conv Bake feature should ONLY be used when your
recipe instructions have been written for use with convection
baking.
If your recipe instructions are for normal baking and
you wish to use convection bake, follow the Convection
Convert option instructions. The convection convert option
will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that
convection baking may provide the best possible results.
Conv Bake may be set with the following options:
* Conv Convert
° Cool< Time and/or Delay Start
Benefits of convection bake:
° Superior multiple oven rack performance.
° Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and
energy.
° No special pans or bakeware required.
For best results
° When baking with a single rack use rack positions 2 or 3.
When using 2 racks use rack positions 2 & 4. When using
3 racks use rack positions 1, 3 (offset rack) & 4.
* Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no
sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate
around the food.
