Convection baking
Tips for convection baking
The amount of time you save will vary depending on the amount and type of food
you are cooking. When baking cookies or biscuits, you should use pans with no
sides or very low sides to allow the heated air to circulate around the food. Using
a pan with a dark finish will allow faster cooking times.
When using convection baking with a single rack, place the oven rack
in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in
position 3 and 5.
When baking a cake, using the bake mode will produce better results.

excellent results using multiple racks at the

rack will generally cook faster and more
evenly with convection baking. Multiple
oven rack cooking may slightly increase
cook times for some foods, but the overall
result is time saved. Breads and pastries
brown more evenly.
How to set the oven for convection baking
Start the convection bake mode.
1.
Press
Bake. The default temperature is 350 °F.
2.
Enter the temperature you want, eg. 400 °F, using the number pad.
3.
Press START/SET to begin convection baking.
Convection Bake and the adjusted oven temperature, eg. 400 °F, will appear in
the display for 2 seconds. The temperature display will start to change once
the oven temperature reaches 175 °F. The range will beep several times when
the oven reaches the adjusted oven temperature.
To turn off or cancel convection bake, press OVEN OFF.
4.
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.
DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.
NOTE
•
For performance reasons, the convection fan may be turned on or off during
the operation.
•
If you are using an oven thermometer in the oven cavity, the temperature
registered by the thermometer may differ from the actual set oven
temperature.
