Using the convection oven.
............
Convection Fan
In a convection oven, a fan circulates
hot air over, under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly
distributed throughout the oven cavity.
As a result, foods are evenly cooked
and browned-often in less time with
convection heat.
NOTE:Theconvection fun will cycle on and
off while cooking to best distribute hot air
in the oven.
The convection oven fun shuts off when
the oven door is opened. DO NOTleave the
door open for long periods of time while
using convection cooking or you may
shorten the life of the convection heating
element.
1-Rack Convection
Baking
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food using
the bake and broil elements.
When convection baking with only 1 rack,
use CONVECTION BAKE.1. R ACKand for
best results place the rack on rack C or
D at the center of the oven. Cook times
may decrease,so food should be checked
earlier than package directions to make
sure that it does not overcook.

Idealfor evenly browned baked foods
cooked on I rack and for large foods.
Additionally, some time savings may be
noticed.
Good results with cookies, biscuits,
muffins, brownies, cupcakes, cream
puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and
bread.
Multi-rock position.
Multi-Rack Convection Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked
with excellent results using multiple racks.
The amount of time required for multi-rack
baking may increase slightly for some
foods, but overall time is saved because
two to three times as much food is cooked
at once. Cookies,muffins, biscuits,and
other quick breads give good resultswith
multi-rack baking.
To cook food on more than one rack in
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE
MULTI.
When baking on 3 racks, place one rack in
the second (B)position, one in the fourth (D)
position and one in the sixth (F)position.

Some package instructions for frozen
casseroles or main dishes have
been developed using commercial
convection ovens. For best results in
this oven, preheat the oven and use the
temperature on the package.
