The convection system uses a fan to circulate
the heat evenly within the oven. Improved heat
distribution allows for even cooking and excellent
results while cooking with single or multiple racks.
The lower oven uses convection auto conversion
to automatically subtract 25°F/14°C from the
temperature you enter. To disable convection
auto conversion, see "Setting Convection Auto
Conversion."
Setting the Convection Function
Example: To cook at 350°F (auto-converted)
1
Touch Conv. Bake or Conv. Roast. The display
flashes 350 °F.
2
Set the oven temperature: touch 3, 7 and 5.
3
Touch Start. The display shows Conv. Bake or
Conv. Roast and the oven temperature starting
at 100 °F.
As the oven preheats, the display shows increasing
temperatures in 5-degree increments. Once the oven
reaches the set adjusted temperature, a tone sounds
and the oven light flashes on and off. The display
shows the auto converted oven temperature, 350 °F,
and the fan icon.

The oven fan runs while convection baking.
The fan stops when the door is open. In some
cases, the fan may shut off during a convection
bake cycle. It turns on again approximately 1
second after the door is closed. Touch Lower
Clear/Off to cancel Convection Bake at any time.
Tips for Convection Baking
• Use Convection Bake for faster and more even
multiple-rack cooking of pastries, cookies, muffins,
biscuits, and breads of all kinds.
• Bake cookies and biscuits 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.
• When using Convection Bake with a single rack,
place oven rack in position 3. If cooking on multiple
racks, place the oven racks in positions 2 and 4 (for
two racks).
• Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase
cook times for some foods.
• Cakes, cookies and muffins have better results
when using multiple racks.
The Convection Roast feature is designed to give
optimum roasting performance. Convection Roast
combines cooking with the convection fan to roast
meats and poultry. The heated air circulates around
the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors.
Foods are crispy brown on the outside while staying
moist on the inside. Convection roasting is especially
good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.
Tips for Convection Roasting
Use a broiler pan and grid when preparing meats for
convection roasting. The broiler pan catches grease
spills and the grid helps prevent grease splatters.
1
Place the oven rack in position 1.
2
Place the grid in the broiler pan.
3
Place the broiler pan on the oven rack.

CAUTION
• Do not use a broiler pan without a grid.
• Do not cover the grid with aluminum foil.
• Position food (fat side up) on the grid.
