Operating Instructions
CONVECTION
BAKING
GUIDE
1. Always use rack when convection baking. Place food directly on rack or place in drip pan and then place pan on rack.
2. Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly. For most convection baking, light, shiny finishes give best results because
they prevent overbrowning
in the time it takes to cook the center areas. Pans with dull (satin-finish) bottoms are
recommended
for cake pans and pie pans for best bottom browning.
3. Dark or non-shiny finishes, glass, and pyroceram absorb heat which may result in dry, crisp crusts.
4. Preheating the oven is recommended when baking foods by convection.
Meats, casseroles and poultry do not require
preheating.
5. To prevent uneven heating and save energy, open the oven door to check food as little as possible.
6. ALWAYS remove rack from oven when microwaving.
7. Use a round metal pizza pan as a "Cookie sheet".
