AUTOMATIC RECIPE CONVERSION
You can use your favorite recipes in the convection oven.
When using CONVECTION BAKE, the CONVECTION
AUTO CONVERSION feature will automatically convert the
temperature from regular baking to CONVECTION BAKE
temperatures. This feature will display the actual converted
(reduced) temperature.
Select CONVECT BAKE.
Using the number pad, enter the temperature
recommended in the recipe. The display will show
the temperature you entered from your recipe.
Touch the START pad.
CON will appear in the display and then show the converted
temperature. After the preheat is complete, the display will
show the converted oven temperature.

Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is
finished.
• Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
• Some package instructions for frozen casseroles, main
dishes or baked goods have been developed using
commercial convection ovens. For best results in this oven,
preheat the oven and use the temperature, for regular
baking, on the package.
NOTE:
• If a food manufacturer gives specific convection baking
package instructions, program the AUTO CONVERSION
temperature so that the preheated oven temperature reads
the same as the temperature on the package instructions.
HOW TO SET THE OVEN FOR CONVECTION BAKING OR ROASTING

COOKWARE FOR CONVECTION COOKING
Before using your convection oven, check to see if your
cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you
are baking with several pans, leave space between them.
Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls
of the oven.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are
recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in
convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to
temperatures of 400°F can also be used, when oven is
below 400°F.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven.
However, metal pans heat the fastest and are
recommended for convection baking.
• Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny
pans.
• Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use
a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low
sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with
high sides.
