FOR BEST RESULTS
Product to be cooked should be centered on the oven rack, and the racks should be spaced evenly within the
oven cavity.
It is best not to rotate the product or open the doors during the cooking cycle.
Preheat oven to 50° (10°C) higher than desired cooking temperature. After the oven is loaded, close the door
and set thermostat to desired cooking temperature.
Make adjustments in the time, temperature and fan speed settings until the desired results are obtained. Adjust
only one setting at a time. For example, if the product is too dark on the outside and not done on the inside, it
is cooking too fast. Try reducing the temperature by 25°F (4°C).
These cooking charts will be helpful in arriving at time, temperature and fan speed settings for products commonly
cooked in convection ovens, but since each user’s perception of how a particular product should be finished
will be different, it may be necessary to make adjustments in the settings until the desired results are obtained.
When the desired results are obtained, make a note of the settings used for a particular recipe and product
load. For example, if the user typically bakes four 18" x 26" (45.7cm x 66cm) sheet cakes using 5 lb. (2.26 kg)
of batter for each cake, that would constitute a typical product load for that recipe. If the size of the load is
changed, it may affect the final results. If the user changes either the weight of the cakes being baked, or the
number of cakes being baked at a time, it may be necessary to make further adjustments in the time or
temperature settings to achieve the desired results.
