Setting Oven Controls 23 About convection bake Setting convection bake Convection bake is part of the Perfect-Convect³™ system. Convection bake uses a fan to circulate the oven heat evenly and continuously. The improved heat distribution allows for even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. The conv bake feature should ONLY be used when your recipe instructions have been written for use with convection baking. The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake feature: • Auto-suggest (default) setting:350°F/176°C • Min. conv bake setting : 300°F / 148°C • Max. conv bake setting:550°F / 288°C See the example below to set conv bake, starting immediately with the auto-suggest (default) setting of 350°F (176°C). If your recipe instructions are for normal baking and you wish to use convection bake, follow the Convection Convertoption instructions. The convection convert option will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that convection baking may provide the best possible results. Conv bake may be set with the following options: Step EExxaammpplele 1. Press UPPER OVEN 2. Press CONV BAKE Press • Conv convert • Cook time or cook time with end time 3. Press START • Probe • Rapid preheat Benefits of convection bake: • Superior multiple oven rack performance. • Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy. • No special pans or bakeware required. Once START is pressed the oven will begin heating. The oven display showsPRE-HEATING during this time. After the oven reaches set temperature,PREHEATING will turn off and a beep will indicate the oven is ready. The oven will continue to maintain this temperatureuntil the cooking feature is canceled. NOTE Once conv bake has started the convection fan make take up to 6 minutes to turn on. This will allow for proper gas combustion. For best results • When baking with a single rack use rack positions 2 or 3. When using 2 racks use rack positions 2 & 4. When using 3 racks use rack positions 2, 3 & 5. • Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate around the food. • Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster. • When placing multiple food items in the oven allow 2-4" (5-10cm) of space between the food items for proper air circulation. NOTE • You may press CANCEL any time when setting the control or when cooking.
