Setting Convection Bake
The Convect Bake key controls the Convection Bake feature. Use
the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The
oven can be programmed for Convection baking at any temper-
ature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven’s heat evenly
and continuously within the oven (Figure 7). This improved heat
distribution allows for fast, even cooking and browning results. It
also gives better baking results when using 2 or 3 racks at the
same time. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Convection
bake cooks most foods faster and more evenly than conven-
tional baking.
Convection Baking Guidelines
1. When using Convection Bake, decrease your normal
cooking times. Adjust the cook time for desired doneness as
needed. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount
and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should
be baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow
heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on
pans with a dark finish will cook faster.Preheating is not
necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.
2. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven
rack in position 2 or 3. (Figure 8)If cooking on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions 1 and 3.
3. Do not open the oven door often. Opening the door will
reduce the temperature and may increase cook time.
.
