SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Convection Bake

Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat

uniformly around the oven. This improved heat distribution

allows for even cooking and browning. Heated air flows

around the food from all sides.

Convection bake may be set for any oven temperature

between 170°F (77°C) and 550°F (288°C).

Benefits of convection cooking include:

•

Multiple rack baking.

Baking tips

•

Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,

cakes, biscuits and breads.

•

When baking cakes using two oven racks place

bakeware in positions 1 flat and 3 glide and place

bakeware as shown in

Figure 14

•

When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes,

biscuits or muffins, use rack position 3 flat or 2 glide.

•

Unless the recipe is written for convection cooking, use

Conv Convert

to reduce oven temperature from the

recipe’s recommended oven temperature.

To set convection bake with a default oven set tempera-

ture of 350°F:

Press
