Adapting Recipes for Convection Baking
As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F. for
Convection Baking. For more specific instructions,
follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook.
Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake
time of over 15 minutes.

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
but the overall result is time saved. Cookies, biscuits,
and 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.

CONVECTION BA~NG
Check foods for doneness at the minimum suggested
cooking time.
Use pan size recommended in the recipe.
For more information on adapting recipes, see the
Convection Cookbook.
For 2-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 when 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 Regular Baking section.
3. Press the CLEAR/OFF pad when
baking is finished.
CLEAR
OFF
NOTE:
You will hear a fan while cooking with this feature
The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the
heat will not turn off.
A second fan mav automatically turn on and off to
cool internal par~s. This is normal and the fan may
continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during the
Convection Bake cycle, press the CONV. BAKE
pad and then the INCREASE or DECREASE pad
to get the new temperature.
