Setting Convection Bake
The CONVECTION BAKE
Use the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven
can be programmed for Convection baking at any temperature between 170° F
(77° C) to 550° F (288° C).
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and
continuously within the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for fast,
even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when
using 2 or 3 racks at the same time. Breads and pastries brown more evenly.
Convection Bake cooks most foods faster and more evenly than conventional
baking.
General Convection Bake Instructions
1. When using Convection Bake, decrease your normal cooking times as
shown aside. Adjust the cook time for desired doneness as needed. Time
reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be
cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or
very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food
baked on pans with a dark finish will cook faster.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection
Bake.
3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in
position 2 or 3. If cooking on multiple racks, place the oven racks in
positions 2 and 4.
