OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH CONVECTION BAKE (For the Lower Oven only) Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown more evenly. Benefits of Convection Bake: ➊ Some foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving cooking time. ➋ Multiple rack baking. ➌ No special pans or bakeware needed. The CONV. BAKE pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature between 300°F (150°C) to 550°F (285°C). Tips for Convection Bake • 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. • When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position C. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in positions A and C (for 2 racks). • Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE function. You can still (you can still use multiple racks when baking multiple cake layers at the same time). • Cookies, muffins, biscuits and other quickbreads give very good results when using multiple racks. NOTE: • The convection fan stops during a convection bake cycle to allow for more even heating. This is normal. Displays of the CONV.
