SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR BAKING
When baking yeast breads, cooking starts immediately in the convection oven. Yeast breads do not
usually rise as much in a convection oven as in a conventional oven. Therefore it is usually necessary
to allow fuller proof, 2
1
/2 to 3 times increase in volume, for best results.
When baking pies in your convection oven, three or four pies should be put on an 18 x 26" (457 x 660 mm)
sheet or bun pan. This procedure helps the bottom crust to bake, makes handling easier and reduces
the possibility of boilover spoiling the appearance of the pies on the lower racks.
HIGH LIMIT SWITCH
All ovens are equipped with a high limit switch, which senses the temperature of the oven to prevent
overheating. The high limit switch operates independently and will automatically shut the oven down
should the primary control fail. If this situation occurs, DO NOT attempt to bypass the high limit. Shut
the oven down and contact your local Vulcan authorized service agency.
