22 Setting Oven Controls Convection bake Convection (conv) bake uses a fan to circulate the oven heat evenly and continuously (Figure 42). The improved heat distribution allows for even cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some food types, but the overall result will be time saved. The conv bake feature should only be used when your recipe instructions have been written especially for convection baking. If your recipe instructions are for baking and you wish to use conv bake, follow the conv convert option instructions. The conv convert option will automatically adjust the oven temperature so that convection baking will provide the best possible results. Benefits of convection bake: • Superior multiple oven rack performance. • Foods cook more evenly. • No special pans or bake ware required. Conv bake may be set with the following options: • Conv convert • Fast preheat • Cook time or cook time with end time settings The following temperature settings apply to the conv bake feature: • Factory default setting: 350°F/176°C • Min. bake setting: 170°F / 77°C • Max. bake setting: 500°F / 260°C 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 To set convection bake with the factory default temperature of 350° (176°): 1.

Once the oven reaches the set temperature a tone will sound indicating the oven is ready. Fig. 43 Display showing active convection bake To stop conv bake at anytime press CANCEL. When baking with a single rack use rack positions 2 or 3. When using 2 racks use rack positions 2 and 4. When using 3 racks use rack positions 2, 3 and 5. • Layer cakes will have better results using the normal bake feature. For best results it is recommended to preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits and breads. • 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 items baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster. • When placing multiple food items in the oven allow 2-4 inches (5-10cm) of space between the food items for proper air circulation. • For multiple-rack convection baking, place items on racks as shown in Figure 44.
