Using the convection modes.
Multi-rack position.
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.
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
CONV 1 RACK and for best results place the rack
on shelf B or C 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.
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 results with multi-rack baking.
To cook food on more than one rack
in convection bake, use CONV MULTI .
When baking on 3 racks, place one
rack in the first (A) position, one
in the third (C) position and one in
the 5th (E) position.

When convection baking, the Auto
Recipe
™
Conversion feature automatically
reduces the set traditional baking
temperature by the recommended
25°F. See Auto Recipe

Conversion
in the Settings section.
NOTE: The convection fan may cycle on and off
and change direction while cooking to best
distribute hot air in the oven. The convection oven
fan shuts off when the oven door is opened.
DO NOT leave the door open for long
periods of time while using convection
cooking or you may shorten the life of
the convection heating element.
Ideal for cooking large casseroles and
lasagna with good results.
■
Use pan size recommended.
■
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 traditional temperature on the
package.
