Operating Convection Bake
During convection cooking the oven elements heat the
entire interior. A fan circulates the heat throughout the
oven. This promotes even browning, exceptional
roasting and baking. Both the amount of cooking time,
and the temperature required are reduced (compared
to a standard oven) when the convection mode is used.
On average, temperatures in a convection oven can be
reduced 25 degrees.
1. Make sure thermostat knob is in the OFF position.
2. Before heating the oven, place the oven racks in the
desired position.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when moving racks while the
oven is hot. We recommend the use of oven mittens or
potholders to prevent injury.
3. Push the selector switch to CONV BAKE.
4. Push in the oven thermostat and set to a desired
cooking temperature between 150 - 550°F. The
"OVEN" light will light to indicate the oven is "on".
The "HEATING" light will also light when the oven
temperature is below the desired temperature. When
the desired temperature has been reached, the
"HEATING" light will go off to indicate the bake
element is off. The oven thermostat will cycle on and
off to maintain the desired temperature at a constant
level.
5. Preheat the oven at the desired setting for at least
15 minutes, or until the oven cycles on and off. When
the bake light cycles off, the oven is ready. Avoid
opening the oven door during preheating.
6. Place the food in the oven.
7. After cooking, turn the thermostat OFF.
