SEM/SEMW Oven Care and Use Manual
Oven Operations
• Preheat when using the convection mode.
• For a quick recipe conversion, reduce the oven
temperature 25° from the bake setting.
• Set Timer 1 or 2 as a reminder to check doneness
of the food at minimum time.
• Multiple-rack cooking and baking can be done in
this mode. For example, cookies can be baked
on all six racks.
• Use low-sided uncovered pans, such as cookie
sheets with 1 or 2 sides.
• Shiny aluminum pans are best, unless otherwise
specified.
• Dark finish metal pans and heatproof glass or
ceramic bakeware may require oven temperature
to be reduced or the time shortened.
• Foods cooking in less than 15 minutes requires
the same time as in bake mode.
• Cookie-baking time may be a few minutes longer
for multi-rack convection baking. That is because
the presence of additional baking sheets in the
oven has an effect on the heating and air
circulation. Place baking sheets directly under
each other on the oven racks to enable optimum
heat circulation.
• Foods taking 30 minutes or more to cook will have
a 10 to 15 percent time savings.
