    CONVECTION DEHYDRATE With the temperature control on 175°F (79.4°C), warm air is radiated from the bake element in the bottom of the oven cavity and is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Over a period of time, the water is removed from the food by evaporation.
  • Page 8 Two-Element Baking/ Convection Baking Preheating Preheating the oven is not necessary when using temperatures below 250°F. For best results, it is extremely important that you preheat the oven when baking cakes and other items that have critical baking temperatures. After the temperature control has been set, the Oven Indicator light goes out when the oven reaches that temperature.
