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 results. 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. Convection baking tips: • Use Convection Bake for best results when baking cookies and cakes on 2 racks. • For best results it is recommended to preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, biscuits and breads and move pans to front of the racks. • If your recipe is not written for convection baking, reduce the oven temperature by 25° or use Convection Convert option. • No special pans or bakeware required. • For cookies use the following racks: • Single rack baking use 3 (flat rack). • Two rack baking use 2 (flat) and 6 (flat). • For baking cakes use the following rack positions and place bakeware as shown in Figure 4. In upper rack use position 4 (flat) or 5 (flat). • 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. • Leave oven lights off while baking. Convection Convert Convection Convert automatically reduces the oven temperature from what is specified in most baking recipes to compensate for the increased cooking efficiency of convection baking. 29 SETTING OVEN CONTROLS To set convection bake with a default oven set temperature of 325°F (163°C): 1.

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 results. Heated air flows around the food
from all sides.
Convection bake may be set for any oven tempera-
ture between 170°F (77°C) and 550°F (288°C).
Benefits of convection cooking include:
•
Multiple rack baking.
Convection baking tips
:
•
Use Convection Bake for best results when
baking cookies and cakes on 2 racks.
•
For best results it is recommended to preheat
the oven before baking items like cookies, bis-
cuits and breads and move pans to front of the
racks.
•
If your recipe is not written for convection bak-
ing, reduce the oven temperature by 25° or use
Convection Convert option.
•
No special pans or bakeware required.
•
For cookies use the following racks:
•
Single rack baking use 3 (flat rack).
•
Two rack baking use
2 (flat) and 6 (flat).
•
For baking cakes use the following rack posi-
tions and place bakeware as shown in Figure 4.
In upper rack use position 4 (flat) or 5 (flat).

er.
•
Leave oven lights off
while baking.
