A. Convection element heat and fan
Convection baking can be used for baking delicate cakes and
pastries, as well as foods on multiple racks. It is helpful to
stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If
the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods,
be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures.
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space
between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the convection and broil
elements and the bake element all heat the oven cavity. After
preheat, the convection element and the bake element will cycle
on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan
constantly circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking or
preheating, the broil and convection element and fan will turn off
immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.
• Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may
need to be reduced also.
To Convection Bake:
Before convection baking, position racks according to the
"Positioning Racks and Bakeware" section. When using 2 racks,
place on guides 2 and 4. When using 3 racks, place on guides 1,
3 and 5.
1. Press CONVECT BAKE.
Press the number pads to enter a temperature other than
325°F (163°C). The convection bake range can be set
between 170°F and 500°F (77°C and 260°C).
2. Press START.
"Lo °'' will appear on the oven display if the actual oven
temperature is under 170°F (77°C).
When the actual oven temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), the
oven display will show the oven temperature increasing in 5°F
increments.
When the set temperature is reached, if on, 1 tone will sound.
3. Press LOWER OVEN OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.
