Adapting Recipes For Convection Baking
When using package mixes, convenience foods
or recipes, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for

convection baking.

Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake
time of over 15 minutes.
Check foods for doneness at the minimum
suggested cooking time.

Multi-Shelf Baking

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the
oven, foods can be baked with excellent results on
two or three shelves at a time. Multi-shelf baking may
increase cook times slightly for some foods but the
overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins,
biscuits, and other quickbreads give very good results
with multi-shelf baking.
When baking on three
shelves, divide the oven
into thirds by placing the
offset shelf in the third (C)
shelf position and straight
shelves in first (A) and
fourth (D) shelf position.
How to Set Your Oven for Convection Baking
Your double oven has controls for the upper oven
and the lower oven. Be sure to set the correct
control. Pads on the left side of the panel are for
the upper oven. Pads on the right side of the panel
are for the lower oven. The TIMER ON/OFF,
COOK TIME, STOP TIME, INCREASE and
DECREASE pads can be used for either oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.

Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
For more information on adapting recipes, see the
Convection Cookbook.
For two-shelf baking, place the offset shelf in the
bottom (A) shelf position. Place the straight shelf in
the third (C) shelf position.
CAUTION: When you are using the offset shelf in
the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution
pulling the shelf out. We recommend that you pull the
shelf out several inches and then, using two pot
holders, pull the shelf out by holding the sides of it.
The offset shelf is low and you could be burned if you
place your hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all
the way out.
NOTE: When convection baking with only one
shelf, follow the shelf positions recommended in
Oven Shelves in the Baking section.
3. Press the CLEAWOFF pad when
